I go on and on about mineral oil all the time and am always asked what I have against it.
Here's the thing.
It has no benefit to your skin. Whatsoever. Companies use it because it's cheap - it's not even cheap - the big oil companies pay people to take it off their hands.
Plant-based oils are far more beneficial to the skin - but they are more expensive. That is the only reason more companies don't switch from mineral oil to better options.
Honestly, when I see pots of cream that cost hundreds of pounds/dollars and the first listed ingredient is 'Petrolatum/Mineral Oil' I could cry. Or shout. Probably shout.
Yes, you get brands saying 'But it's refined medical-grade mineral oil!'. Well Whoopie-DO. *jazz hands*
I suppose that means an omelette isn't really an egg.
You all have a choice - and each to their own. I haven't used mineral oil on my face for over 20 years. And I've never put it on my kids faces.
That's all.
