Function
Is an emollient cleanser and demulsifier of dirt trapped in pores. Mineral oil is excellent for use in cleaners. In leave-on cosmtics, its comedogenicity or lack thereof appears related to the level of raw material refinement; therefore, some suppliers state that their product is noncomedogenic. When used in leave-on preparations, mineral oil's occlusive capability is considered to help improve the epidermal barrier function.
