Johnson's Baby Oil - 20 fl oz - Pure Mineral Body & Massage Oil, Original Scent

The Cheapest Way to Never Run Out

Mineral oil absorbs slowly, and for massage that counts as a feature rather than a flaw. It stays on the surface, still working, long after a thinner oil would have vanished into skin, which means fewer interruptions and more actual massage. Twenty fluid ounces of it, in a bottle everybody already recognizes, at a price that makes generosity easy.

Nothing about the packaging invites a question, which is useful when the bathroom shelf is visible from the hallway and the hallway is four steps long. It has been sold as gentle enough for infants for generations, and the original scent is one most people already have a memory attached to. Spread a thin layer and build pressure gradually.

Soap does more here than water does, so send everyone to the shower afterwards instead of hoping a towel will cope. Lay something down first, because twenty ounces finds bedding with alarming ease. Treat it strictly as a skin product: latex does not survive mineral oil, so keep condoms well out of the room.
