Cussons Baby Oil
Moderate score: good hydration but petroleum base, fragrance, and baby suitability concerns limit it.
For external use only. Avoid eyes and broken skin. Keep out of reach of children. Flammable - do not expose to open flame or high heat. Discontinue if irritation occurs.
What's the verdict?
Popular baby oil designed for daily use to improve skin hydration and texture. Suitable for sensitive skin but relies on a mineral oil base with added actives and rose fragrance for scent and benefits.

5 listed · 2 flagged · estimated by AI, check the label- Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil - Occlusive Base)Caution

Beneficially strengthens skin barrier, reduces inflammation, supports even tone and hydration; highly tolerated with proven positive effects on skin health for most users including sensitive types.
