I recently had a baby, and was given several bottles of baby oil in gift baskets. I don't use it for my baby ... what else can I use it for?

Personally, I use it for woodworking.
A lot of people use mineral oil for a wood finish, but the stuff is kind of expensive. It turns out that baby oil is just mineral oil plus fragrance and is a lot cheaper. Now the bowls and other decorative pieces I make have that "new baby" smell.

Cradle cap is a good use for it.
Please put this up high out of reach of children & the possible chance that it could spill in the babys bed. If baby oil get s into the lungs of a baby or toddler they can drown their was a article in the newspaper about that.

Another way you can use baby oil is if you have had a sticker on something like a window for a while and pull it off you can use baby oil to take the sticky dirt off.....And you can use it on your eyebrows after you pluck or wax them

The only things I ever use it for are when my daughter had cradle cap, I use it as an eye makeup remover on a cotton round, and sometimes I'll use it on dry skin that doesn't seem to react to normal lotions.

My daughter is 19 months and I still use oil on her for massage. She loves it. I also use a few drops in a bath for myself.

It's for really dry skin. Save it because when the weather is really dry and your baby skin gets dry you may want to use it. You could also make your significant other use it for super soft skin!

Keep that stuff.. Both of my kids had cradle cap and I used that to moisturize their heads and then brush the bad skin out..

You can use it on your skin after a shower to moisturize. You can use it to take make off. You can use it to make dull sea shells shinier.

Look up "I think I made his back feel better" and "Laura Corn" on Yahoo.
You'll love it and so will your hubby. It takes some practice but oh my GOD you will love it.
