What is a skin lotion?

What is an emulsion?

Emulsions, tinctures, massage oils, creams and dressings are all topical agents, such as moisturizers, but are also used to treat skin problems and rashes to treat bruises, pain and pain.

But what is the lotion, what does it actually mean.

All of these products are often water and oil formulations and are absorbed into the skin due to oil content.

Making emulsions, cream tanning agents, etc. are based on mixing oil and water in the correct ratio to prepare an emulsion. Leave it long enough that it will be separated forever. By adding an emulsifier, this becomes a stable product and will remain bonded. The emulsifier you choose depends on which lotion it is.

So what is the difference?

  Emulsions can be prepared in two ways: as an oil-in-water emulsion or as a water-in-oil. It sounds different, they did create similar results.

Description

If it is an oil-in-water emulsion, the oil is the dispersed phase and the water is the continuous phase.

If it is a water-in-oil emulsion, the water is the dispersed phase and the oil is the continuous phase.

Even in the presence of an emulsifier, any type of cream/emulsion can be separated into its components over time and can sometimes be caused by extreme temperatures, disproportionate components of the dispersant, and the addition of other components such as alcohol.

Most people choose their skin these days, so pay attention to what type of lotion it is. Try to find products that contain natural emulsifiers and use natural oils as a basis. Your skin will thank you.
