Generally lighter weight than creams, lotions are considered non-greasy.
The basic rule is to use lotions during the day and in hot summer summer months.

A lotion is typically a mix of water and droplets if oil. Lotions can be loosely described as any liquid preparations in which inert or active medications are suspended or dissolved.

Any O/W (oil in water) emulsion with a high water content to give the preparation a liquid consistency can be considered a lotion.
Most lotions are aqueous or hydroalcoholic systems. Small amounts of alcohol are often added to aid the solubilization of the active ingredient(s) and to hasten the evaporation of the solvent from the skin surface
Most acne lotions are hydroalcoholic which evaporate fast. They are non-sticky and drying.

Lotions are emulsion types that are usually not fast drying. Depending on the water content, higher water and/or less oil is more drying.
Lotions are easy to apply to large areas making them a popular choice for massage therapists during the summer months and for clients with hair.
