    I just bought some plain mineral oil (sold as a laxative) to use on my baby's skin after I bathe him. I wanted to use baby oil, but am trying to stay away from fragrances due to his sensitive skin....

    I add two or three capfuls to my bath and I soak and wash and everything else for about 15 minutes. I rinse and get out and my skin is pretty soft. I like it.. I would not just rub it on my skin...

    Here is what I know about Mineral Oil from personal experience: As soon as I cut it out of my bodycare routine, I quit having such severe hives. The second thing I know is that after I quit using...

    This is the #1 way to clog my pores. Sure, it feels fine when I apply it but the next day is a nightmare. I can't have mineral oil as an ingredient in any of my make-up of I will break-out 100%...

    Okay here's the secret I discovered: plain old dirt-cheap mineral oil (cosmetic grade) is one of the best non-cosmodogenic moisturizers, is completely natural and has been used as a moisturizer for...
