The impact of women using baby oil
Baby oil can moisturize and protect the skin, so many mothers use baby oil to apply to their children. However, some women also use baby oil for a long time. What are the effects of this?
1. The impact of baby oil on women’s skin
Baby moisturizing oil contains a large amount of mineral oil, and the molecules of mineral oil are large and can easily form a protective film on the surface of the skin, which will hinder the normal breathing and excretion of the skin. At the same time, long-term use of mineral oil may also reduce the skin\’s ability to absorb other nutrients, thus affecting the health of the skin.
2. The effect of baby oil on the female endocrine system
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contained in mineral oil are substances that have potential effects on the endocrine system. When PAHs are absorbed by the human body, they will enter the blood circulation and be metabolized by the liver. However, if the intake is too large, it may exceed the liver\’s metabolic capacity, causing them to remain in the human body, thereby potentially affecting the endocrine system.
3. The psychological impact of baby oil on women
Some women prefer long-term use of baby oil, mainly because of its light fragrance and gentle texture. However, if you use the same moisturizing oil for a long time, it will lose its freshness and you may feel bored or even depressed. In addition, long-term use of baby moisturizing oil may also cause people to be overly dependent on other moisturizing products. It is recommended to appropriately try other brands and types of moisturizing products while ensuring skin health.
4. The correct way to use baby oil
It is very important to use baby oil correctly. Here are a few things to note:
1) Baby moisturizing oil should generally only be applied to areas with dry skin, such as elbows, knees, wrists, back, etc.
2) The amount of moisturizing oil should not be too much. Generally, about 5 ml is enough each time.
3) Before using moisturizing oil, the skin should be washed and dried.
4) Moisturizing oil should be applied gently to the skin to avoid excessive friction.
5) Moisturizing oil should not be applied to mucous membranes such as the face, ears, nose, lips, etc.
Summary
Women who use baby oil long-term may experience negative physical effects, including effects on the skin, endocrine system, and psychology. Therefore, it is recommended that women pay attention to the correct usage method when using baby moisturizing oil, and try to try other brands and types of moisturizing products while maintaining healthy skin.
