  1. I really wonder why people rub these kinds of chemicals on their skin.  I work in the energy business and if you exposed to certain chemicals (ie liquid parafins) you need personal protective equipment to keep them off your skin.


  2. I have no idea what all those names mean buddy, but i can assure you that if i can't understand the ingredient list i certainly wouldn't be putting it on my skin.

    Your skin is a very efficient organ and is very capable of absorbing anything nasty it comes into contact with rather rapidly and delivering it straight into your bloodstream ......  how about using organic cold pressed extra virgin (the first pressing) olive oil??  the type you use to cook with or put on your vegies and salads.........  Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive oil is unrefined and made with the highest quality olives without using heat...... the polyphenols contained in them are powerfull antioxidants which are essential for fighting the free radicals we are constantly assaulted by.

    A study published in 2001 in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition examined the effects of diet on wrinkles.....Researchers compared the diets and skin of people living in sun exposed areas and found that those with a high intakes of olive oil, vegies and legumes (peas, beans and lentils and the like) had the least wrinkling....... truly wonderull used as an all natural skin moisturiser..... smooth, clear supple skin....... good antiaging stuff mate.

    Try it in your salads or drizzled over vegies with fresh herbs and freshly squeezed lemon juice .... mmmm yummy .. or do as i do and use it as an all natural moisturiser on your face and hands ........ you do need to ensure to cleanse morning and night too and notice how glorious your skin will start to look. Olive oil is also your best bet for cooking; the polyphenols protect against oxidation so its relatively heat stable.

    hope this helps u a bit

  3. Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil) Yes it contains mineral oil. http://www.bio-oil.info/en/hypo-allergen... I would suggest if you buy it usually they will have a toll free number to call regarding questions and comments. Also I would suggest talking with a pharmacist and see if they help you with this product and your answers. IF I can't pronounce the word in the ingredients, I leave it alone. I looked at the website for that product and it doesn't even a contact us link. Honestly, I wouldn't buy it and use it.
