Will baby oil create pimples if I use it on my face?

Question

After I get out of the shower I like to use Johnson & Johnson baby oil on my face because it keeps my face super moisturized and soft, BUT does it cause acne on my face, like clog pores or anything? Give me details on if its okay or not okay to use on my face... thanks

Answer 1

Yes this will create pimples on your face. As an alternative for moisterizer use something a little lighter like Oil of Olay that was made for your face. Baby Oil was made for your skin and it excellent if you want to moisterize your body but try and keep away from it when it comes to your face. Another tip- for your exsisting pimples use a cream so you can elimnate the pimple in that one spot so you don't have to dry out your entire face.

I don't know but I went from using Zest and went to Dove. Well, I wound up with
a nice mess on my face that was very embarrassing. The Dr. sent me to my
Dermatologist who diagnosed me with Seborrhea. My face was too moisturized.
I would think twice about putting baby oil on your face. I had a prescription and I
still have i spot on my face-very visible- : { even after 2 years.

Answer 4

Baby oil is not supposed to be applied on the face b/c it clogs pores and it doesn't say that you can apply it on the face. The oil is too "strong" for the face and the face has a lot of sensitivity and so you just have to be careful.

Answer 5

Johnson&Johnson create baby products, not makeup prone to give you pimples.Their baby oil is perfect for clogged pores.It softens pores,allowing you to clean your face to rid yourself of those pesky devils.

Answer 6

any oil other than your natural oils on your face cause pimples...even your hand has oil that causes pimples!

Answer 7

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.

A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.

The secret is never to touch the spots
