Abstract: The purpose of this study was to improve the physical color stability of official white lotion to a point where a freshly prepared lotion would not be necessary. Three antioxidants (ascorbic acid, sodium metabisulfite and sodium sulfite) were added into official white lotion in a concentration of 0.1% w/v. Sodium sulfite was found to be the most suitable.
