yes, if it get too warm it separates, the egg yolk could curdle if too cold, and if uncovered it will skin over with a dark yellow crust. I've also seen it turn green, likely from being contaminated with other foods.

This is not accurate. First, are you asking about eating it or putting it on your skin? Many people who use natural products use mayo or other food products to condition skin or hair. Mayo is actually a very good moisturizing treatment for both because it's high in oil and nourishing egg yolks. Famous naturopth, Dr. Airola, swears by egg yolks for hair and skin conditioning. You have to wash it off, of course.

Eating mayo can also be good for your skin because it's very high in oil and some oils have compounds that are very good for your skin. May be made with canola, safflower, sunflower, olive oil, avocado oil, or many other oils, or it may be made with a blend. Many are high in essential fatty acids that are needed for skin and hair health.

Of course, too much fat can lead some people to break out (though sugar is often more of a culprit). As with all things, moderation!

Anything in excess is not the healthiest thing for you. Remember that mayo is nothing more than pure fat when all the ingredients are blended. So, in moderation - not a big issue.
