You have to give more details as to why these were given to you Liquid paraffin is colorless, odorless and tasteless. It cannot be dissolved in water or alcohol, but it can be dissolved in organic solvents. It is also known as mineral oil. Liquid paraffin is used to make cleansing creams, cold creams, hair oils and beauty lotions. The benzoyl peroxide is medication used to treat mild to moderate acne. It may be used in combination with other acne treatments. When applied to the skin, benzoyl peroxide works by reducing the amount of acne-causing bacteria and by causing the skin to dry and peel.
