2 Questions on: baby oil & nipples

[amhranai9.livejournal.com]

Hey!  I just have two quick questions:

1.  Is it safe to use baby oil down there?  (For moisturization, not lube.)

2.  I seem to have an ingrown hair on my nipple (I pluck the few dark hairs that grow on my areolae).  I've never had one before that doesn't grow out in a couple of days, so how do I take care of this one?

Thanks!  :-D

If you're talking your basic baby oil from the supermarket (ie, mineral oil- check the label)- I would say don't use it. Don't use it on your ladybits, on your skin, or on babies. It's not good stuff. Mineral oil is a refined petrochemical- lots more info HERE (http://www.dld123.com/q&a/qandatemp.php?id=Q77).
Otherwise, it would depend on the ingredients. IMO, you're best off getting a bottle of almond or soybean oil from the store and just using that. Cheap, cheerful and not likely to irritate :)

As far as the ingrown hair- a warm compress might help make it easier to extract.
