You are allowed to claim hypoallergenic as long as the allergic rate is no more than 4%. So Yes which plenty of people would have an allergic reaction to mineral oil. Think of all the natural things in life that people are cause an allergic reaction. Pretty crazy to think about. Liz,

Almost every cream I have has mineral oil. Does anyone know if there is a link to the thoughts about mineral oil in facial creams actually makes your skin wrinkle? Wonder if people have allergic reactions to mineral oil in cosmetics? yes, this mineral oil thing is mind boggling at times. Almost every cream I have has mineral oil.

I would like to know if there are products that have been tested in the past and are not being tested anymore. I would feel better using those if it is possible. I guess to be consistent with my feelings, I'd have to quit using makeup and a lot of hair products. Also, I agree about the mineral oil; and it seems to hold moisture in as well as remove makeup. I don't know why it and silicone oils have been so demonized. The animal testing info makes complete sense.

Fortunately, there is a lot less animal testing going on and we continue to work toward developing suitable alternatives to this testing. We'll get it soon enough. And for mineral oil, well like Christina said it's as natural as anything else we obtain from Mother Earth like air and water. So sorry about the “no animal testing” revelation.

Let the battle begin! :) Good to see you back, Kim - we missed you! :) I have gotten over my fear of mineral oil – really its just as natural as any other oil, comes right out of the earth. :) I do think it’s bad rep stems from marketing hype – but thats just me.
