Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Is mineral oil really that bad?? I've heard it dries the skin, but that's about it.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Kind of sad that they used to use that on babies for diaper rash, isn't it. Here's another take on it: http://www.herbalhealer.com/nustock.html I guess I figured it would be a good product to have on hand, as in a survival kit type thiing.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 The same 12oz. tube is sold on Amazon for $12.10. The Amazon price is alot cheaper. Thanks for sharing the link. I have never heard of this before and am now very curious to try it on my face. I constantly have rashes and red spots along with acne. Nothing ever seems to make a dramatic difference besides dangerous doctor prescribed steroids. > > Is mineral oil really that bad?? > > I guess that depends on your point of view... > > It's a petroleum by-product: > > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_oil > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I have never tried MSM, but have been reading more about it lately and i'm wondering of for people, taking internal MSM might be just as effective as the cream? You wouldn;t be gettign the 2% pine oil that comes in the cream, but it would be nice to be able to avoid the petroleum. > > Is mineral oil really that bad?? > > I guess that depends on your point of view... > > It's a petroleum by-product: > > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_oil > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 , Have you tried using lanolin? My dry feet love lanolin, as does my face. Lansinoh is a more liquid lanolin made for sore nipples of breastfeeding mothers. NOW sells a lanolin which is stiffer at room temp. I use both.
