Q: I've read that you can use mineral oil on skin. Is there any reason you wouldn't be able to apply this to your skin?

submitted by Aaron - 4 years ago

  • A: Yes it is food grade

    submitted bychaz - 2 years ago

  • A: I have been tanning with this & mixed with Vitamin E oil for decades & my skin is soft & beautiful!

    submitted byCocoView - 2 years ago

  • A: On the contrary to what Target Staff is incorrectly stating, Mineral Oil for ingestion is manufacturered at a HIGHER standard of safety than food-grade Mineral Oil, meaning it is safe for food items.

    submitted byMrReese - 1 year ago

  • A: Hi Aaron - Thanks for reaching out! This Mineral Oil is specifically used as a lubricant laxative to help relieve occasional constipation. Have a wonderful day! - Shakita

  • A: Yes, this mineral oil is safe to use on a cutting board because it is ingestible.

    submitted byFrancesca - 2 years ago

  • A: If this mineral oil is a lubricant laxative with a 0.01% tocopheral (or "vitamin E"), meant for ingesting, doesn't this then qualify as "food grade" & thus, CAN be safe to use as cutting board oil??

    submitted byEBToy - 2 years ago

Q: Is this food grade mineral oil?

submitted by Serious Camper - 3 years ago

  • A: It's not "meant" doesn't mean it can't be used to safely to oil a wood cutting board. Tocopherals (0.01%) is nothing more than vitamin E. This isn't meat or mold or promotes bacteria growth, right?

    submitted byEBToy - 2 years ago

  • A: Yes. It’s USP-US Pharmacopeia-meeting the required safety standards.

    submitted byLisaB - 9 months ago

  • A: Yes, it is specified as USP grade on the label and is safe for ingestion so it's also safe to use on cutting boards or on the skin.

cheap and effective makeup remover

I use this to take sunscreen and dirt off my face at the end of the day. It is very effective and gentle on skin. Will NOT remove water-proof mascara, so I use a special formulated product for that, but this is amazing for the rest of the face.

Oil paint brush cleaner

This may be weird, but I hope they never discontinue this. You cannot find a better price anywhere else and I buy this in bulk like four bottles at a time at least because it’s so cheap and it actually effectively cleans off my oil paint brushes between colors. don’t let it sit on your paintings or anything, but if you mess up an oil painting, I promise you this will clean it right off. It’s a miracle ditch the turpentine.

Best value mineral oil

I use this mineral oil for any wood furniture and cutting boards frequently. It works very well at hydrating the wood and refreshing its appearance. This is the best price I’ve found and an excellent product.

Hair clipper helper

I bought this as a cheaper option than a small, overpriced hair cutter oil bottle. It's the same thing, much cheaper, and it works. Seems like good quality & saved a good amount on it.

Love this!

This was recommended by my son's specialist to help soften bowel movements. It has been really helpful. This one in particular is more affordable compared to other drug store prices. I always purchase this with milk of magnesia since he takes them together.

Cap was loose and item had leaked by the time I arrived home

The cap was loose and had leaked by the time I arrived home; I picked this item up curbside, but I have also received moldy onions at curbside as well as milk expiring in one day--Target seems to pawn off lesser quality items on curbside pickup the same way Fresh Thyme holds back items behind the rimmed checkout.
