    Mineral oil is trial-and-error, I think. It's my HG (as makeup remover and occasionally as a night 'cream', when I want a break from retinol, or I want something really rich in the winter). My...

    This stuff is hands down the worst product on my skin. While I am not typically very sensitive to most products using mineral oil or any product that contain even small amounts of mineral oil...

    A.k.a. Paraffinum liquidum. Excellent moisturiser and make-up remover. I use it as an in-shower body oil; not usually on my face, though I have done if nothing else was to hand. <p> Mineral is...
