I am using the mineral oil and it keeps my skin very soft and I think it is not bad for the skin.

I have been using mineral oil as a moisture on my
face and I can tell a difference by the way it feels
Should I keep using the oil or not? Or is there a
better product I can use that is not expiencisive?
