I read that baby oil isn't the best thing for you. I also use it to clean my ferrets ears....so Im worried if it is truly "bad". Is there a safe, more natural, eco-friendly alternative?

Answer 1

it is bad it soaks into your blood stream making it hard for you to absorb nutrients. Use olive oil to clean out your ferrets ears. or vegetable oil but olive oil is better.

Answer 2

depend what you are using it for? it is pretty harmless and is just  mineral oil made from minerals and we are all made from minerals, carbon to be exact.

you want to use it for a moisturizer, olive oil is good or Aloe Vera.

You want to oil down your butcher block table then castor oil is great and it is even good for constipation...!

You want to run your car... well you get the picture....
