<p>I use jojoba, coconut oil and squalene topically (jojoba &amp; squalene on face and body, coconut on body because makes my face red) -- but wanted extra help for the dry cold winter NYC air which always dries my skin out. I just received a 10% vitman e moisturizer from the same company I buy my vitamin e from (I open the capsules and apply to face sometimes but too oily for daytime use). I unfortunately did not read the ingredients carefully before purchasing because I saw macadamia nut oil and jojoba but missed canola oil. I would never eat canola oil in a million years and realize the skin absorbs oils -- so any thoughts on how bad it would be to use a moisturizer with canola oil as one of many ingredients?? There is 10% vitamin E in it to help prevent oxidation plus I will mix in my own ascorbic acid as well. Thoughts on how evil canola oil would be in a moisturizer?</p>

<p>The amount of canola oil you would absorb through your skin would be trivial. Nothing wrong with it imo.</p>

<p>I just think it would go rancid, and then you're absorbing rancid oils...I wouldn't use it, but I am extremely sensitive. You could mix in some shea butter with your other oils for extra protection, and add vitamin e yourself...</p>

<p>Rancid? Canola oil is used in cooking because it is resistant to high heat. How do you figure?</p>
