If you want to soften and moisturize your skin, the first thing that comes to our mind is lotions. They help to replenish the lost moisture. Lotions range from baby lotion to sunscreen lotion to protect from sunburn, to body, and hand lotions.
The baby lotions we use are extremely safe as they are used on the babies’ sensitive skin and provide the required nourishment. They prevent the chafing of skin for babies and to avoid a rash. There are no parabens or strong fragrances. Instead, they have honey, beeswax, or Aloe Vera. They soothe skin irritation, and these lotions have a lot of pros, and the only cons maybe being too pricey or availability issues.
The sunscreen lotion is popular as we live in a hot and humid country. It protects the skin from the rays of the sun and prevents sunburn. Choose sun protection filter (SPF) according to the duration of time you are going to be outdoors. The longer the length of time outdoors, the higher should be the SPF used.
Compared to a cream, the water content in a lotion is high compared to cream. It is non-greasy and lighter. Next are the hand and body lotions. The body lotions must not be applied to the face as they are heavily scented and a lot thicker. While selecting a lotion, ensure that you go by the brand, skin type, and its pros and cons to keep your skin well-nourished and healthy.
