Calamine lotion, a mixture of zinc oxide and ferric oxide, has roots that trace back to ancient times, with early forms used for skin ailments. While it is difficult to attribute its invention to a specific individual, the formulation was popularized in the 19th century. The product became widely recognized in the 19th and 20th centuries, particularly for its soothing properties for conditions like sunburn and insect bites.
