Lacto calamine comes in cream or lotion form. The lotion is great for oily skin and also for sensitive skin. My great grandmother started using it and my daughter used it up until production was ceased a few years ago. If you can get it anywhere give it a go. Ann

Can an oily skin use lacto calamine as body moisturizer?
yes for sure,lacto calamine is best for oily skin. Lacto-Calamine was a popular skin lotion during early days. Calamine is another name for Zinc Carbonate. Lacto-Calamine was earlier used as a lotion for soothing the skin especially during summer. The lotion had germicidal properties and more importantly had a cooling effect on the skin. Calamine lotion was also used as a base for applying powder/other cosmetics on the face. In short, the brand was very popular in the early eighties. Later for some reasons, the brand faded away from the market. There was no promotion, no marketing as such. The brand missed the new generation by miles. The brand's availability was restricted to medical shops . Although I don't remember any ads of Lacto-Calamine, but I think that the brand was positioned as a complexion lotion. One report suggest that the brand had the tagline " Skinnoccence" meaning " Innocent skin". The brand was also prescribed by dermatologist for skin rashes and sunburns.
