What are the ingredients in Neutrogena sesame body oil?

Isopropyl myristate, sesamum indicum (sesame) seed oil, PEG-40 sorbitan peroleate, propylparaben, BHT.

Does Neutrogena still make sesame lotion?

I am extremely disappointed that Neutrogena has decided to discontinue this product, and I am at a loss to understand why and what product I will end up using when my stockpile of Sheer Oil-Lotion is exhausted.

Can you use Neutrogena sesame oil on your face?

You can use sesame oil liberally on your skin for massage and for moisturizing purposes. If you use sesame oil for acne or acne scars, dab it onto the affected area with a cotton ball, and leave it on overnight. You may want to exfoliate your skin first to remove dead skin cells and debris.
