Safe To Use Baby Oil: "Baby oil" is commonly applied to babies' skin. It does not moisturize however due to it's poor absorption by the skin. Beyond this, it can be used as massage oil on infant skin. Classical baby oils are safe when used as directed. As with any product, carefully read the label, avoid dyes &amp; fragrances, avoid phthalates &amp; parabens. See your doctor for any abnormal skin condition your infant may have

Question 6

can female masturbate with johnson's baby oil?

Accepted Answer

Masturbate lubricate: Masturbation lubrication is best achieved with a water-based lubricant, not oil-based as a baby oil is. This is especially true for females who have much more open/exposed mucous membranes than men do. The oil on skin is not so bad, but on the mucous membranes can be irritating and make one prone to infections, including uti's. Would suggest sticking to water-based lubricants like KY jelly.

Question 7

i use jonhson baby oil on my face ...is it good?

Accepted Answer

Ok: I think most people would find it too oily, and it would have a greater chance of causing acne and plugged pores than a non-comedogenic moisturizer.  But if it works for you  that's great.

Question 8

can i use baby oil to help my red rosacea cheeks?

Accepted Answer

Baby oil for rosacea: Unfortunately the redness from rosacea is very difficult to treat. Baby oil is unlikely to do much except clog your pores. I would recommend trying one of the over the counter redness relief lines from clinique or eucerin or a consult with your doctor to try some prescription rosacea medications.

Question 9

can i use expired baby oil as lube for masturbating?

Accepted Answer

Probably safe: These products begin to break down over time &amp; some of the degradation products may be a bit irritating. However, it is likely to be safe for a year or so after a listed expiration date.

Question 10

can i use baby oil by personal care for masturbation?

Accepted Answer

: Yes. It may be better to use a water-based lubricant like KY jelly.
