for the "guess what you smear on," here comes an article (taken from here http://rema2007.wordpress.com/2008/07/30/ingredienti-pericolosi-petrolatum/) on a substance much used in cosmetics, and especially as a component of creams, makeup, lip balm, bubble bath and so on and so forth.
you spread oil for moisture?
seems impossible, but lots of cosmetics on the market are made from oil ...!! Or instead of a natural oil (almond, olive, avocado ...) are used fats derived directly from the refining oil, without any further processing, directly from the refinery to our cream!!
Very often there are products for babies, but also for adults, in many ointments and medications.
the positive that they are odorless, colorless or white, do not ever go rancid and are cheap compared to natural fats, are unlikely to yield an allergic reaction and so are suitable for all skin types intolerant.
The downside is that these fats are not recognized by our skin, forming a waterproof film on the surface which can lead to maceration of the epidermis (the sensational case of prickly heat on butts neonati spalmati di pasta per bimbi al petrolato) ma non penetrano quindi sono molto meno emollienti di un qualsiasi olio vegetale.
Una crema o un burro cacao con grosse percentuali di petrolati lasciano la pelle unta in superficie, ma secca sotto. Mai provato a spalmarvi con quei burro cacao che chissà perché dopo un’ora tocca riapplicare e le labbra sono sempre secche? Sono forse le nostre labbra che resistono a tutti i trattamenti? No, è colpa degli ingredienti del burro cacao. L’olio che spalmato sulla pelle umida idraterebbe “10 volte più di una normale crema idratante” lascia la pelle unta in superficie, ma che tira e si squama. E invece di pensare che forse quell’olio poi non è so those who use moisturizing think you have dry skin so that even the oil enough, and it spreads more and more!
Another thing not to be overlooked for those who care not only his health but also that of the planet: the pollutants are slack, and now and then. Every time we wash do they go down the drain, and reach the sea.
If a cosmetic ingredient list found in the word "petrolatum", "paraffinum liquidum" isoparaffins "," paraffin "," ozokerite "," ceresin "is definitely a product to be avoided, that it hurts us and the environment, and will be better left on the shelf.
The following article, which among other things answers the question: "why the authorities do not prohibit these drugs?" is taken from here:

Since 2004, the European Standard petrolatum classifies as class 2 carcinogen. The primary container is mandatory the word "May cause cancer."
It seems that while we are on the primary substance little risk (human skin tolerates well, less guinea pig skin - poor guinea pigs), it may contain harmful impurities much. The riskiest are cicloaromatici pyrene and carcinogenic, which are the same with whom we come in contact when we do gasoline (diesel)!
European research on petrolatum are recorded by the CONCAWE (Conservation of Clean Air and Water in Europe - institution devoted to the study of substances derived from oil financed by large oil companies), while American ones are secret!
The FDA restricts petrolatum in food, and poses no limitation in cosmetic although it is contained largely in lipsticks and lip stick, protective, which are easily ingested. Still, the FDA sets the limits of impurities contained in the packaging cicloaromatiche certainly carcinogenic.
If it is found then the hazardous nature of petrolatum, why it continues to be used in cosmetics?
Simply because, under European law, the petrolatum is "possibly" carcinogenic, not sure. This potential lies in the dirt, not the substance itself. The producers then check that the substance does not contain higher levels of impurities a quelli previsti dai limiti fissati dalla FDA per il packaging. E dichiarando che tali limiti non sono superati, possono vendere il loro petrolatum per scopi cosmetici.
Per chiarirci ancora meglio le idee, riporto di seguito un articolo scritto dalla famosa Lola, creatrice de "L'angolo di Lola" ed esperta in materia (http://lola.forumup.it/about84-lola.html)
Normalmente mi ritrovo a scontrarmi via forum con persone che sostengono che chi evita i petrolati è un fissato, sostenendo più o meno questi punti:
-il paraffinum liquidum è presente in products for infants, then surely it is very delicate;
- there is more emollient moisturizer, because it creates an occlusive film which prevents perspiration hydrating the skin;
- repair damaged skin much more than any other natural fat
- Oil is not comedogenic, it is written on all the websites that compare the comedogenicity of various fats, while vegetable oils yes
- not by allergies, not rancid, it's nice to spread on the skin.
context, point by point:
- il petrolato è presente nei prodotti per neonati, soprattutto perchè costa pochissimo e non ha odore. Normalmente non dà allergie, anche se in questi giorni ho raccolto quattro testimonianze di dermatiti indotte dall'olio Johnson's (inci: paraffinum liquidum, parfum). Il problema è che forma un film occlusivo sulla pelle, ed è stato riscontrato che spesso i neonati che ne vengono spalmati sviluppano infezioni batteriche sulla pelle in quanto sotto lo strato di "plastica liquida" i batteri proliferano. Spesso i neonati affetti da sudamina ricavano benefici se al posto di paste petrolifere iniziano ad usare prodotti più traspiranti;
- The perspiration is a physiological thing and useful, in normal amounts. Too much, of course, can dry the skin, but enough to have a vegetable oil or butter to decrease without a lock at all. Assuming ungesse unfortunate that someone with a cream made of oil threatens overwhelming excessive Imbimbo and maceration of the superficial layer, which must contain if a healthy 10% water, not more. Then, if we look around, skin problems are usually only a small proportion of dry, most people have oily skin too!
The legend that the oil hydrates Johnson's "ten times more a normal moisturizer "are dispelled by the facts: skin, oily on the surface continues to pull down.
repairing damaged skin than any natural fat is true, but the skin of the face that needs no cosmetic is never violated. It can make sense in a petrolatum ointment healing, where a lesion does not come into contact with the bacteria environment, and must remain in the active site without being washed away by perspiration or absorption by the skin cream but not safe in a cosmetic;
- which is not comedogenic petrolatum is written in American Studies from those who paid the petroleum producing it; Definitely un grasso occlusivo che mantiene in loco il sebo prodotot naturalmente dalla pelle non pu fare altro che peggiorare la situazione in chi ha già problemi di pelle impura;
- Vero che normalmente non dà allergie, vero che non irrancidisce mai neanche dopo mille anni, ma non è piacevole da spalmare, dà sempre quell'impressione di plastica sullla pelle
Inoltre:
I petrolati sono stati classificati dalla comunità economica europea come cancerogeni di classe II, significa che non hanno una diretta causalità nella formazione cancer, as can be, for example formaldehyde or asbestos, but are strongly suspected, and that because of the impurities that proceso manufacturing fails to eliminate completely, thinking that if I slather on the oil does not give big problems can , are contained in most of the lipsticks and lip balm, and we eat them;
are used because they are cheap, giving you fine emulsify creams and milk-white with no smell, not unlike the never rancid vegetable oils. But they are not recognized by the skin, sebum-like are not (and in the choice of a cosmetic, care must be taken to restore the perfect condition for healthy skin, not to upset his balance) and interfere with normal perspiration.
As the world there are hundreds of vegetable oils and butters from many different cosmetic properties, full of vitamins, ceramides, omega 3 and 6, unsaponifiables which stimulate fibroblasts, which are not only short, fat but make our skin oily substances cosmetically good, tell me why I have to settle for a cosmetic that has made life easier by giving the formulator a few problems of both cost and stability, when I spend good money to buy it?
It 's time to stop to be fooled, if we pay for a cosmetic must have something inside. And that will give formulators a move instead of always look for the easiest way so the consumer is fooled in every way. We are conscious consumers, we choose. Slack let them inside the tank of the machine.
