Australian Oils Bio-Essence Emu Oil

I bought this believing that it was essentially pure emu oil. Wrong!! In their written product description the manufacturers assiduously avoided telling you that it contains only 10% emu oil and that almost 90% of it is something called "Liquidum Paraffinum". What is this stuff, I asked myself? An Internet search revealed the following:"Liquidum Paraffinum" is an exotic sounding way (Latin) 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 and breathe, promoting acne and other disorders. Slows down skin function and cell development, resulting in premature aging. Used in many cheaply made products (some inferior "baby oil" is 100% mineral oil!) Any mineral oil derivative can be contaminated with cancer causing PAH's (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons). Manufacturers use petrolatum (mineral oil) only because it is unbelievably cheap.So, you decide for yourself if this stuff is worth $5.00 per ounce, when you can buy an 8 ounce bottle of 100% mineral oil at a drug store for about $0.49 (49 cents). My own decision was to flush the commode with it!!

I have sensitive dry itchy skin and needed a lotion that was a non-irritant for my sensitive skin. I have noticed an improvement to my skin after two weeks . My skin does not flake anymore and have not had any allergic reactions. It is fairly non-greasy and seems to absorb really well into your skin. I have been using this in combination with lanolin and very pleased with it so far.

I had heard that emu oil was the best product to use for rejuvenating one's skin. While this may be true, I found it to be entirely too greasy; therefore I spent too much money for an item that sits unused in the cabinet.

The jar of Emu Oil I got is not what I ordered. I ordered the spray. I really cannot use this jar. I am very disappointed and would like to have the spray that I ordered.Thank you.

Had a recent surgery and a scar on my abdominal, due to the cloth and daily activity was getting a rash in it, but this oil help my skin and rash... the scar is almost gone with the help of this oil.Would recommend and buy it again.
