JOHNSON’S BABY OIL

 DESCRIPTION

Johnson’s Baby Oil is a moisturizing product designed to keep skin soft and smooth. While it’s marketed for babies, it is also widely used by adults.

 Ingredients and Function:

• Mineral Oil: The primary ingredient, mineral oil (also known as Paraffinum Liquidum), is a highly purified liquid that acts as an emollient. It works by creating a protective, oily barrier on the skin’s surface, which helps to lock in moisture and prevent dryness.
• Fragrance: Johnson’s Baby Oil typically contains a light, gentle fragrance.
• Other ingredients: Some versions of the product may also contain other ingredients like Vitamin E, aloe vera, shea butter, or cocoa butter, which are included for their moisturizing and skin-conditioning properties.

Common Uses:

• Moisturizer: It is effective at moisturizing and protecting skin, especially when applied to damp skin after a bath or shower.
• Baby Massage: It is a popular choice for baby massages, as its smooth texture allows for easy gliding and can help to relax the baby and strengthen the parent-child bond.
• Cradle Cap: It can be used to help soften and loosen the flaky patches associated with cradle cap.
• Adult Skincare: Many adults use it for various purposes, including as a body moisturizer, a makeup remover, or a shaving oil.

Safety and Product Information:

• Johnson’s Baby Oil is formulated to be gentle and is typically hypoallergenic and dermatologist-tested.
• The product is often advertised as being free of parabens, phthalates, and dyes.
• It’s important to use it for external purposes only and to keep it out of the reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion or inhalation, as this can be dangerous.
