From Judy: enjoying the beach with my Crack Blaster Repair Lanolin Balm close at hand.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.
For more than 35 years, I have had the privilege of helping customers discover the benefits of lanolin skincare. It all began when a friend gave me one jar of New Zealand Merino Lanolin Skin Cream. That thoughtful gift changed the direction of my life.
Over the years, I listened closely as customers shared what worked for them and what they still needed. Their experiences eventually inspired me to create our American-made Crack Blaster Repair Lanolin Balm and Revive Nourishing Lanolin Cream.
Repair and Revive were never intended to replace the original Merino products that began my journey. They were created to complement them—offering intensive care for especially rough areas and gentle, fragrance-free moisture for everyday use.
This blog is where I’ll share practical lanolin skincare tips, answers to common customer questions, product guidance, customer stories and personal memories from the many years I have spent building Merino Skin Care USA.
I’ll also share a little life along the way—because this business has always been about more than products. It has been about relationships, listening and helping people feel comfortable in their skin.

Thank you for being part of this journey.
God bless you and take good care,
Judy Van Steenkiste-Reber
Founder, Merino Skin Care USA
