Yeah, it's a mixture of both mineral oil and petroleum (mineral jelly)...I still don't understand whats bad about mineral oil...If the products work for you, then I would discontinue the use of it. But that's just me.

Yeah, it is. Paraffin Oil = Mineral Oil. Paraffin oil is also in MTG so if you are afraid of mineral oil, you might not ever want to try it, even when they come out with a human version.

I love me some mineral oil though.

Ok, I learned something new.  I'm not scared to use mineral oil though, I just saw a lot of improvement when I stopped using products (especially moisturizers and oils) that had mineral oil and petrolatum in it so I try to stay away from it if possible.  Some of my conditioners still have it and I won't stop using them.
