I did a search on Google for "Paraffinum Liquidum" and allergic reactions, and found that its actually just a fancy name for "Mineral Oil"... and this is what this website said about Mineral Oil:
(http://www.health-report.co.uk/ingredients-directory.htm)
"Liquidum Paraffinum is an exotic sounding way to say mineral oil (!!) See Mineral Oil ...>> Petroleum by-product that coats the skin like plastic, clogging the pores. Interferes with skin's ability to eliminate toxins, promoting acne and other disorders. Slows down skin function and cell development, resulting in premature aging. Used in many products (baby oil is 100% mineral oil!) Any mineral oil derivative can be contaminated with cancer causing PAH's (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons). Manufacturers use petrolatum because it is unbelievably cheap.

it's another name for mineral oil. i'ts made from refined crude oil and plasticizes on your skin. it's also a known carcinogen and the 2nd leading cause of aging in skin, yet it's in 98% of personal care products on the market usually under various different names.
Arbonne uses no mineral oils of any kind!!!
