Lotions, often referred to as emulsions in Korean skincare, are lighter moisturizers designed to provide hydration without feeling heavy. They typically have a milky texture and are formulated to absorb quickly into the skin. Lotions are ideal for those with normal to oily skin types, or for use in warmer climates, offering a balanced level of moisture.
