White Mineral Oil

White Mineral Oil

White Mineral Oil, also known as White Mineral Carrier Oil, is a light, clear, highly purified oil that is derived from Petroleum and is commonly used in a wide range of cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. Once the oil has been purified to become mineral oil, it bears no resemblance to the original petroleum, and is not a source of contaminants as often believed. It is also rich in skincare benefits and for this reason, it is a fantastic carrier oil to dilute essential oils.

• This versatile oil is considered one of the safest and non-sensitizing moisturising agents known, due to its very simple chemical structure.
• In skincare, it is known to soothe, moisturise and replenish the skin. It is also light on the skin and is an excellent all-purpose carrier oil.
• White Mineral Oil can be applied directly on the skin; however, it is recognized that one of the best ways to utilise it is in a cream (or emulsion) base.
• White Mineral Oil is used as a blending base in a range of cosmetic, pharmaceutical and personal care items such as creams & lotions, baby oils and sunscreens.
• It is also used widely in other industries for use in such things as aerosols, insecticides, printing inks, die moulds, protective coatings, automotive lubricants, plastics, leather processing and the list goes on.
