Side effects found in baby oil

Most of us think that baby oil is the safest oil we can use, but by using it we could be harming ourselves. It has found that baby oil, which is 100% mineral oil, has a petroleum ingredient that coats the skin just like plastic wrap. This causes the skin’s natural immune barrier to become disrupted as this plastic coating reduces its ability to breathe and absorb the natural moisture and nutrition. The skin does not have the ability to release toxins because of this plastic wrap, which promotes acne and other disorders. This process slows down skin function and normal cell development causing the skin to prematurely age. Industries that produce these baby oil’s such as Johnsons and Johnsons need to discontinue this product until it is safe enough for use without any side effects. Because it is such a known and trustworthy company, people don’t expect it to be harmful. The ethical thing for this industry to do is to let their customers known the truth behind the product, and not try to fool people by calling it a gentle baby product.
