Isoi Lotion

A Korean-style lotion (sometimes called an emulsion) is a thin, fluid moisturiser lighter than a cream. It applies between the serum and any thicker cream as a moisture-sealing layer. This format is distinct from Western body lotion - the Rose Original Body Lotion 200ml in this collection is the exception, designed for body use, while most other ISOI lotions are facial products.

The thin texture of Korean lotions makes them practical as standalone moisturisers for oily skin (where a cream is too heavy) or as a layering step for dry skin that adds moisture below a cream. The ISOI lotion collection covers both scenarios with products calibrated for different skin types and concerns.

The Chicago Vegan Family Lotion 350ml is the largest product in the collection, sized for household or family use. The vegan designation confirms no animal-derived ingredients. At 350ml it is significantly larger than most facial lotions (typically 90-130ml), making it suitable as a shared daily moisturiser or for body use. The Chicago sub-label refers to a specific ISOI product line focused on accessible, everyday vegan formulas.

The family-size format is practical for those who want to avoid frequent reorders or who share the product across multiple household members. Both variants in the collection (the standard Chicago Vegan Family Lotion 350ml and the Chicago Universal Lotion 350ml) are from the same product family and serve the same daily moisturising role.

Two treatment-focused lotions appear in the collection. The Recovery First Essence Lotion 90ml is from a recovery-oriented sub-line targeting skin in repair mode - post-treatment, barrier-compromised, or sensitised skin that needs a gentle, active moisture step. The Bulgarian Rose Intensive Treatment Lotion 90ml is the lotion-format product from the Bulgarian Rose Intensive range, delivering the line's higher-concentration rose extract actives in a lightweight fluid texture suited to oily skin or warm climates where a cream feels too heavy.

Both are 90ml, a standard treatment-lotion size for daily use over six to eight weeks. Choose the Recovery First lotion for barrier repair and sensitised skin; choose the Bulgarian Rose Treatment Lotion for ongoing antioxidant and brightening support within the Bulgarian Rose Intensive system.

The Fresh Essence Lotion 70ml is a sebum-control lotion for oily skin. It provides moisture without adding heaviness or promoting excess sebum production - the phrase 'to escape sebum' reflects its function as a lotion that manages oil during the day. At 70ml it is a compact daily moisturiser, practical for those who use multiple products in a routine and want a lightweight finishing moisture step without the feel of a traditional lotion.

Use it as a standalone final moisture step on oily skin (morning, before SPF) or as a mid-routine moisture layer if the skin needs additional hydration between serum and a light cream. The compact size makes it convenient for keeping in a bag for midday touch-ups if needed.

The Thermal Essence Excellent Lotion is available in 70ml and 140ml sizes. Thermal water-based products in Korean skincare use mineral-rich water (typically from natural thermal springs) as a primary ingredient, providing trace minerals alongside hydration. The thermal essence format combines this mineral-rich base with an essence-level active concentration in a lotion texture.

The 70ml is the trial or travel size; the 140ml is the full-size ongoing supply for daily use. Both carry the same Excellent Lotion formula. This lotion is suited to normal to dry skin that responds well to mineral-enriched hydration. The thermal mineral content makes it particularly useful in environments with hard tap water or where skin reacts to standard water-based products.

The Rose Original Body Lotion 200ml is the only body-use lotion in the collection. It is a standard daily body moisturiser incorporating Bulgarian rose extract, applied after showering to the full body. At 200ml it provides approximately six to eight weeks of daily use. Apply to slightly damp skin for best absorption rather than to fully dried skin. The rose extract provides conditioning and mild antioxidant properties at the body care step - the same botanical base as the facial products, applied at scale.

The right ISOI lotion depends on three factors: your skin type, your concern, and your routine structure. For oily skin without specific treatment needs, the Fresh Essence Lotion 70ml is the most appropriate - lightweight, sebum-managing, and compact. For normal skin in a family context, the Chicago Vegan Family Lotion 350ml provides everyday moisture at a practical size. For dry or mature skin in a treatment routine, the Bulgarian Rose Intensive Treatment Lotion 90ml integrates naturally into the Bulgarian Rose Intensive stack.

For skin in barrier repair, the Recovery First Essence Lotion 90ml is the most targeted pick. For mineral-water enthusiasts or those in hard-water environments, the Thermal Essence Excellent Lotion 140ml is the option with the most distinct formulation approach from the rest of the range. The Rose Original Body Lotion serves a separate role as the sole body lotion in the collection.
