    Lotion can melt off makeup and moisturize the skin. Make sure to use a hypoallergenic baby lotion that's gentle enough to use on the face.

    Shaving cream
    Ran out of shaving cream? Apply lotion on your legs before using your razor for a smooth shave.

    Leave-in conditioner
    Tame stubborn strands and get rid of frizzy ends by massaging a tiny amount of lotion on them.
