Mystic MomentsWhite Mineral Oil Carrier Oil - 500ml - 100% Pure (Package may vary)

This Mineral Oil is the perfect make-up remover.I use this every night as my first cleanser, followed by a gentle cream wash. I previously used baby oil, which irritated my skin due to the added fragrance. This product does not contain perfume, and is therefore suitable for the most sensitive skin. I pour a little out in the palm of my hand, tap it straight onto the skin and massage gently, then wash off: it leaves the skin incredibly clean, smooth, and soft. This step should always be followed by a second wash, as it is not advisable to leave mineral oil on the skin (can cause comedogenesis). If you wish to make sure that every residue of makeup has been removed, you may follow up with a swipe of micellar water, before finally washing off.Its performance as a make-up remover is second to no pricey cleansing oil or balm on the market. I would say it is suitable for any skin type, be it dry, sensitive, or oily. It is also suitable for Malassezia (fungal acne) sufferers.The product is reasonably priced given the size of the bottle--it will last you a good while. A staple in my skincare routine, and highly recommended.

It's lockdown. I've been spending a lot of time sitting on my bed playing the guitar. I grabbed my Fast Fret only to realise it had dried out. Heck, I've got time to kill, let's find out what the liquid in Fast Fret is made from ...[time passes] ..Right, so all I need is some 'mineral oil' and I can breathe new life in to my Fast Fret. That sounds more fun than buying a new Fast Fret (in the crappy new plastic containers, that split in the bottom of your gig bag ["OK Boomer"]).Amazon does it's usual thing. You can have 3ml for £4.60, or 500ml for £5.08 [or whatever the numbers were this time] ...Fair enough, 500ml it is ...Bottle of 100% pure ("white") mineral oil ("carrier") duly arrives ...Which let's face it, it might not bear a "food grade" certification, but it's "pure" mineral oil. However "Mystic Moments" hasn't described any food since my wife stopped doing the cooking.I revived my Fast Fret and lubed up my guitar. Excellent. Me man. Me make thing. Me happy. Now Me write angsty song about 2020 lockdown.What to do with the rest of it though...?# I could build a flashy light circuit and drop it in the bottle - it's totally non-conductive, you can run an old TV in a fish tank of mineral oil ...nahh, already been done.# I could treat all the woodwork in my house ...nahh too much effort, this bed is comfy.# Maybe I could fill the bath with water and make it duel to the death with a bottle of detergent ...Hmmm, put that on the list, but not right now.# I could mix it with orange juice or cinnamon or something and burn it - I used to have a hippie mate who was convinced that if he burned stuff in his house nobody would know he did drugs ...nahh, his house mostly smelled of burning oil ...with a hint of cat pi**.# Maybe mix it with laser toner and make a DIY ferromagnetic fluid ...That sounds very messy - and then my printer won't work properly - probably best NOT do that :/So there I am, sitting on my bed pontificating my options, with youtube on random play in the background ..it's worked its way from Dodie [singer/guitarist/songwriter/etc] to her lesbian friend [Stevie] talking about threesomes - *really*, I did not have to encourage this, YouTube knows me well! ...During this video she points out that you should NOT use oil based lubricant for vaginal sex as it causes yeast infections, you should only use oil based lube for (in her words) "bum stuff" ...I then realise I am sitting on a bed with just over a PINT of "bum lube" on the bed side table ...[childish schoolboy chuckles]Amazon have [despite this product not technically bearing a "food grade" logo], and eschewing Wikipedia's claim that it is "odourless" have asked me to review the scent and flavour of this ...So:# Out of the bottle, it smells "warm", and tastes "oily" - gotta say, I'm not gonna be making a vinaigrette out of it any time soon.# When I tried it off the guitar it smelled metallic and woody, and it tasted metallic and "mucky" - like, errr, grimey guitar strings being held 3mm from a piece of wood.# I licked it off a circuit board, and I must say it goes really well with Amtec Sticky Flux - nom.# Off the skirting board, it tasted like getting a splinter in your tongue - so probably best /paint/ the skirting, rather than lube it up.# The less said about the detergent in the bath, the better, it came with carrot!# It wasn't too bad with spices, but I wouldn't bother with the herb collection.# With laser toner it smelled like ink (weirdly enough) - and tasted like the particles were small enough to cause cancer (weirdly enough).# Sadly, it being lockdown and all, I can't give you feedback on Stevie's idea, you'll have to find that out for yourself. Sorry.

I bought this oil having "youtubed" how to bring back the colour on black composite sinks. It works a treat and my sink looks like new, just give it a quick wipe over with a bit of the oil on kitchen roll about once a week. Not perhaps its intended use but it has made me a very happy bunny!!!

I've been using a product from a well-known Swedish firm for years, but Covid has prevented me going to get more. This is a great alternative for oiling wooden worktops and, with a few drops of orange essential oil, it makes for a lovely finish and smell. Will not be returning to the old product. My kitchen is glowing and lovely. Good water resistance and the finish lasts a long time, even on heavy-use surfaces.

This stuff has many many uses. I got this for treating wood block chopping boards and wondered that maybe 500ml will last several lifetimes. No problem as I now realise this basic mineral oil is a carrier used in all sorts of conditioning products from skin to leather and even car and furniture waxes. I have already used it to soften stiff dried out leather boots and my next use will be in DIY leather dye (combine with mica pigment and IPA).
