Diff. b/w Gel, Cream & Lotion

What's the difference between a Gel, Cream and Lotion? And which one should you choose? OILY SKIN- You should be looking at mainly gels and perhaps sun lotion because your skin is naturally well endowed with oily matter. NORMAL-COMBI SKIN- You are blessed to be able to choose from any of the above depending on what you need the product for. For eg. if it is just a light hydrator you want, go for a gel. If your need is for true moisturiser you should settle for a cream. DRY SKIN- You ought to be looking largely at creams. If you do have to use a gel for its ingredients apply the gel first, let it absorb into skin and top it up with a moisturizing cream.

It really depends though! Some gel moisturizers can be very hydrating enough for dry skin! I prefer gel moisturizers even though I’m dry or a combination of a gel and a cream because I don’t like how heavy some creams are.
