Lotion Base is a ready-made cosmetic formulation used as a starting point for creating customized skincare lotions and creams. It typically provides a moisturizing base that can be enhanced with compatible cosmetic ingredients, such as selected botanical extracts, humectants, and other skin-conditioning agents. Its exact composition depends on the manufacturer, so the ingredient list should be checked before adding other actives.

Key Active Ingredients & Benefits

• Emollients – help soften the skin and improve its smoothness.

• Humectants – may help attract and retain moisture in the skin, depending on the formulation.

• Emulsifiers – help maintain a consistent blend of oil and water in the lotion.

• Skin-Conditioning Agents – help leave the skin feeling soft and moisturised.

• Preservatives – may be included to protect the water-based product against microbial growth.
