Petrolatum is used in skin products because it is very cheap. 1. When the Olay Body Wash is poured onto a pouf or washcloth, it comes out thick and when spilled onto the water, it does not dissolve. It remains as a lump floating on top of the water. 2. Years ago, I found the Olay Body Wash formula w/o petrolatum to be excellent. As a matter of fact, when the water drained from the tub, the tub was left clean w/o any residue. Other people confirm this pleasant outcome. The body wash containing petrolatum leaves a residue around the tub. 3. The Olay Triple Effects Body Wash leaves a film on the body . . .yuk . . . plus you see that it repels water (it does not absorb into the skin . . . probably just as well). 4. I agree with Jenna's comments to the effect it is harmful in certain cases. I purchased 3 Olay Body Wash Triple Effects because it was on sale (2 are unopened). If you would send me a prepaid postage, I will return them for a refund or coupon rebates to purchase Olay Body Wash that do not contain petrolatum if one is available available. I believe you guarantee your products.
