What does LOTION mean in Scrabble?
noun
A smooth liquid or cream preparation applied to the skin for medicinal, soothing, or cosmetic purposes.
Lotion typically has a thinner, more liquid consistency than a cream or ointment, letting it spread easily over the skin. It may contain moisturizing, soothing, or medicated ingredients and is used for purposes ranging from treating sunburn to everyday skin care. Pharmacies and cosmetics counters both stock lotions, and the word can also describe an older, more general medical wash applied to an injured or diseased part of the body.
