Lotion

A lotion is a low-viscosity topical preparation intended for application to unbroken skin. By contrast, creams and gels have higher viscosity.

Lotions are applied to external skin with bare hands, a brush, a clean cloth, cotton wool, or gauze. While lotion may be used as a medicine delivery system, many lotions, especially hand lotions and body lotions are meant instead to simply smooth, moisturize and soften the skin. These may be used in anti-aging lotions, which can also be classified as a cosmetic in many cases, and may contain fragrances. The Food and Drug Administration voiced concern about lotions not classified as drugs that advertise anti-aging or anti-wrinkle properties.

Medicine delivery

Dermatologists can prescribe lotions to treat or prevent skin diseases. It is not unusual for the same drug ingredient to be formulated into a lotion, cream and ointment. 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 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 prone skin.

    She Is Weird City

    by: Lotion

    There's something different about you this year
    Do you remember the time that we met
    Back in the kitchen you talked about love
    Took me through the house, showed me around
    One thing, only one thing could make me happy
    One thing, only one thing could make me happy this year
    There's times if I could have hit you I would
    What would have happened if we were alone
    Your mouth moves just down to frown
    To make my fingers ache
    One thing, only one thing could make me happy
    One thing, only one thing could make me happy this year
    There's something different about you this year
    Do you remember the time that we fell
    Back in the kitchen you talked about him
    Take me through the house, show me around
    One thing, only one thing could make me happy
