Eczema Treatment Care

Question by tiredbutwiredlove: Mineral Oil or Olive Oil for infant’s skin?
My baby has really dry skin/eczema on her face and ears. At the hospital they recommended olive oil. I also read that mineral oil is good too. Which is best? I prefer the mineral oil because the olive oil really makes her stink. But I want to make sure I am using what is best to keep her skin moisturized.

Best answer:

Answer by marsh
My cousin is a nurse and she recommends using olive oil:)

I’m not too familiar w/ mineral oil so I don’t know which is best.

What do you think? Answer below!

Having spent a fortune on makeup recently as I’ve had a problem for a while with my eyes, the doctor told me it was contact dermatitis from something I’m using on them. I tried lots of makeup (Clinique – hypoallergic), then thought it was lanolin so spent a fortune on No.7 range which is lanolin free, I wore this for 3 days in a row and thought it was working, I was so happy, then I woke up this morning with huge puffy, red and itchy eyes just like before. I then read on internet that it maybe bismuth oxychloride which is in a lot of makeups and can cause my symptoms and that I should try mineral makeup so I’ve ordered two samples from Lily lolo and bare essentials, fingers crossed! To be honest I’m so down and feel like there’s nothing I can do. I get married in 4 months and keep thinking it’ll be a disaster because I can’t seem to wear any makeup. Does anyone have any info to help me, I feel so down about this.
