Lotions serve a multitude of purposes and come in many scents, textures, and colors. In comparison to creams and gels, lotions are thin and have a low viscosity. Lotions are applied to the skin topically and are commonly used to soften and hydrate the skin. Antibiotics, antifungals, anti-aging, and anti-acne ingredients can be mixed into lotions for additional benefits.
While each manufacturer creates a unique blend in compounding a lotion, most have several ingredients in common. Most ingredients provide one of three basic functions – seals the skin’s surface, hydrates the skin, or stabilizes and preserves the lotion. Glyceryl stearate is one of the most common lotion ingredients.
Glyceryl stearate functions as a sealing agent in lotions that forms a barrier against moisture loss on the surface of the skin. Glyceryl stearate also acts as an emollient and lubricates the skin, making it appear softer and smoother. Dimethicone is another common ingredient that protects the skin from loss of moisture by forming a permeable barrier. Derived from natural silicone, dimethicone functions as an emollient. Urea is an ingredient often used in medicinal creams for the treatment of skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, keratosis, and calluses. Urea is hydrophilic and promotes rehydration of the skin due to its ability to easily absorb water. Glycerin, which is also called glycerol and glycerine, is another source of hydration in lotions.
