Moisturiser - apply all over while you're still wet, it's fab.
I put it on the ends of my hair, leave for 30 mins, then wash it out. It's better than conditioner.
Mix with salt or sugar for a body scrub.Bulletproof0 -
Hi susyrosy,
I find it very moisturising applied to damp skin after a bath or shower. It's also good to use a (very small amount) to buff up the shine on stainless steel appliances.

Eye make up remover.
Shaving oil (for legs).
Keep for summer & slather on in the evening after a days sunbathing.
Got any chrome in your kitchen (hob, hob back, etc) use a little on a kitchen towel to bring an amazing shine.
Massages.
DD says use it before shampooing as a hair treatment.
Rub into cuticles
You can put some in the bath, but you will need to scrub it after.
If your DH has a six pack run some in & enjoy the view;)0 -
you can use it for all of the above - but patch test on YOUR skin first!!!
just a friendly warning - i found out the hard way that i was HIGHLY ALLERGIC to J******s baby oil the hard way! and my face swelled up like a balloon went bright red and i looked like a burn victim.
for taking off makeup and other moisturising needs i use virgin olive oil. not really expensive when you consider how much cosmetic companies charge for items that do the same thing.0 -
Hello, as others have said, it can be used for so many things.
I use Baby oil for the following:
* Removing eye makeup and other make up at the end of the day
*I pour a little bit into a washing up bowl with warm water for a lovely foot soak and to help soften cracked skin on feet before using pumice stone.
*I add a bit to my hair (the ends) and leave in for a couple of hours, then rinse out with cold water and ends of hair are lovely and soft.
* I use it to soften cuticles when doing a DIY manicure
* I rub a little bit into my knees, elbows and heels before fake tanning, as this stops the tanning agent being to dark on dry areas of skin.
*I use it when after ive showered, rub in to wet skin for very soft skin.
*Massage gently into chapped or sore lips
*Dip the end of a cotton bud into babyoil before cleaning out your ears, it makes it a much more pleasant experience and stops the cotton bud from hurting your inner ear.
* I also rub a little splodge of baby oil around my eye area for a nice little massage, i dont think it has much effect, but it makes your bags looks smaller and the skin is softer.
* Also if you are going on holiday, you can use this as a tan prolonger......once you have showered, slather yourself with Babyoil and it will stop you from going dry and peeling!
Phew....i think thats it! xx0 -
there is surely only one use... take 1 sexy man (or woman if that is your preference)... apply... enjoy...Man plans and God laughs...Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.0

wouldn't let the stuff anywhere near my skin let alone a baby's - quite good for polishing stainless steel thoughPeople seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
