Another common ingredient in skin creams and lotions is mineral oil. I was promoting Thentix A Touch of Honey at a show one and a woman had another product which she asked me about. It was touted as an “Aloe Vera” product. It had pictures of Aloe leaves on the jar. She asked me to look at the ingredients of the jar.
I looked at the jar and the first ingredient was ‘mineral oil’. Mineral oil is not good for your skin. It coats the skin like a plastic. It clogs pores preventing toxins from being expelled, causing things like acne. Mineral oil is distilled from petroleum. This distillation process is what is used to make gasoline as well. This is not something one should put on the skin. Baby oil is pure mineral oil.
Check your skin creams and lotions to make sure that is doesn’t contain mineral oil.
