Default mineral oil - good or bad for the skin?

i found pros and cons when i researched it. more pros than cons.

so far, i cannot justify telling clients it's bad for their skin.

one more thing that makes it more difficult to convince them to not buy lotions at the drugstore.

Yes just read the link that Bel (Wicked1) just gave you. This was a really good thread from awhile back on mineral oil.

Thanks Bel!
