Now mineral oil is often cited as a safer alternative for cleaning wood and other household uses, but even though it may be a safer option, it is not the best option.  Mineral Oil is a petroleum by-product that is used in products such as laxatives, moisturizer, lip gloss, foundation, concealer, facial cleanser, sunscreen, lotion, and baby oil is 100% mineral oil.

So what is the problem with mineral oil?  Well, it coats the skin and clogs the pores.  Mineral oil  is a nonrenewable crude oil that has been hydrolyzed and hydrogenated, which creates a plastic like substance. This interferes with the skins natural ability to eliminate toxins.  This can result in acne,  premature aging, and act as a barrier to nutrients.
