Mineral-oil-free
No mineral oil on the list.
35 pieces whose published ingredient lists contain no mineral oil (paraffinum liquidum on a list) and no petrolatum. Both are refined from petroleum; they are safe, effective moisture-sealers, but many people prefer to do without them. The 5 that contain one are named below.
What we count: mineral oil, listed as “Paraffinum Liquidum” or “Mineral Oil”, and petrolatum. This page answers that question and no wider one: some pieces here use other petroleum-derived ingredients, such as ozokerite or microcrystalline wax in sticks and pencils, so it doesn’t call them petroleum-free.

Questions
Why choose mineral-oil-free?
Usually as a preference: some people avoid petroleum-derived ingredients, or find rich occlusives heavy on oily skin. Cosmetic-grade mineral oil is highly refined and considered safe.
Is paraffinum liquidum mineral oil?
Yes. It is the INCI name for mineral oil.
Is mineral-oil-free the same as petroleum-free?
No. A piece can contain no mineral oil or petrolatum and still use a petroleum-derived wax or polymer. This page answers the narrower question.
