Chapter VI · Section 8 of 11

Massage oils

Body oils intended for massage, kept clearly separate from lubricants and from latex.

What to look for

Some public-health guidance discusses lubricant osmolality and pH. Manufacturers do not always publish these figures; when they do, they are worth noting for sensitive skin.

More notes
Oil and latex
Oil-based products, including many massage oils and household oils, are widely reported to weaken latex barriers. Keep them apart unless the packaging explicitly says otherwise.

No curated selections in this section yet.

The guidance above stands on its own. Product guides are added only once an approved record exists; nothing is listed here that has not been reviewed.
