As promised, I did some research about absolutely pure lanolin and I was surprised at how fast and easy it was to find (it was in my medicine chest), as well as (relatively) inexpensive.
The product is called Lansinoh, and it is the purest form of lanolin on the market (in fact, it is the only ingredient on the list!!!). The product was designed for breastfeeding mothers to soothe cracked, dry, sore nipples, but it is amazing, obviously, as a skin nourishing agent. It is also extremely easy to find and not as expensive as other things.
I still hold to the evoo, however, for many reasons, not the least of which is it's non-animal fat-based nourishing properties.
