Hello everyone, today I will talk about the difference between face cream and lotion. Some people say that you can avoid face cream after using lotion. Is this really the case? Today, the editor will explain it to you!
01water and oil ratio
There is a saying that lotion and cream are just different in the ratio of water and oil. You can choose one of them according to the needs and sense of use
There is another saying that face cream can strengthen the effect of water and emulsion, and the water locking effect is better. Water and cream are indispensable, so that the skin can have a complete skin care loop.
02texture
base of lotion and cream The ingredients are the same, they are all water-oil mixtures
, but the emulsion is thinner, usually an oil-in-water preparation (water is the continuous phase, oil is the dispersed phase)
cream is thicker, and it is a water-in-oil preparation (oil is the continuous phase, water is the dispersed phase). In short, one is more like water and has good fluidity; the other one is more like oil, with high moisturizing
03 ductility
In terms of ductility and absorption speed, emulsions are often better
This is mainly because the lotion has a high moisture content, is easy to apply, is easy to absorb, and can quickly penetrate into the bottom layer of the skin
and the cream has a rich nutritional content. is relatively more sticky. If the skin is not absorbed well, it will occasionally have a thick and sticky feeling.
