Lotions
are much thinner and lighter than creams. Designed to be applied and absorbed very quickly, they have a
lower viscosity than creams. Both creams and lotions are emulsions having a water and oil phase, so the primary difference is the thickness. Lotions are generally Oil-in-water emulsions and less greasy or heavy feeling than a cream formulation.
Please refer to our viscosity scale for more details.
