Body lotion<\/p>\n
Definition<\/a>-“A lotion<\/b> is a low- to heavy-viscosity<\/a> topical preparation intended for application to unbroken skin<\/a>.[1]<\/a><\/sup> By contrast, creams<\/a> and gels<\/a> have higher viscosity.<\/p>\n Lotions are applied to external skin with bare hands, a brush, a clean cloth, cotton wool, or gauze<\/a>. Many lotions, especially hand lotions<\/b> and body lotions<\/b> are formulated not as a medicine<\/a> delivery system, but simply to smooth, moisturize and soften the skin. These are particularly popular with the aging and aged demographic groups, and in the case of face usage, can also be classified as a cosmetic in many cases, and may contain fragrances.<\/p>\n Most lotions are oil-in-water emulsions<\/a> using a substance such as cetearyl alcohol<\/a> to keep the emulsion together, but water-in-oil lotions are also formulated. The key components of a skin care lotion, cream or gel emulsion (that is mixtures of oil and water) are the aqueous<\/a> and oily phases, an emulgent<\/a> to prevent separation of these two phases, and, if used, the drug<\/a> substance or substances. A wide variety of other ingredients such as fragrances<\/a>, glycerol<\/a>, petroleum jelly<\/a>, dyes<\/a>, preservatives<\/a>, proteins<\/a> and stabilizing agents are commonly added to lotions. Lotions can be used for the delivery to the skin of medications such as:<\/p>\n It is not unusual for the same drug ingredient to be formulated into a lotion, cream<\/a> and ointment<\/a>. Creams are the most convenient of the three but are inappropriate for application to regions of hairy skin such as the scalp, while a lotion is less viscous and may be readily applied to these areas (many medicated shampoos<\/a> are in fact lotions). Historically, lotions also had an advantage in that they may be spread thinly compared to a cream or ointment and may economically cover a large area of skin, but product research has steadily eroded this distinction. Non-comedogenic lotions are recommended for use on acne<\/a> prone skin.” (Wikipedia)<\/p>\n lotion tissues<\/p>\n Motion.Lotion<\/p>\n hair lotion<\/p>\n lotion making kits<\/p>\n Blow Dry Lotion<\/p>\n tanning bed lotions<\/p>\n hand lotion<\/p>\n jellyfish sting lotion<\/p>\n Wilson’s Leather Lotion<\/p>\n hand lotion<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Post the direct URL (link) where your drawing, doodle, artwork is posted (e.g. your blog, Flickr) in the comments area of this post.
