    clear, odorless oil derived from petroleum used in cosmetics

    Mineral oil, also known as liquid petrolatum or paraffin oil, is a clear, odorless oil derived from petroleum. It is commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products, such as baby oil, due to its moisturizing properties. In a medical context, it can serve as a laxative or a base for ointments. Its inert nature makes it suitable for a variety of applications, including as a lubricant and a protective barrier for the skin.
