Is there alcohol in lotion?

Everyone knows that alcohol can remove excess oil secreted by the skin and has a bactericidal effect. However, to fully achieve this purpose, the concentration needs to be very high, which causes great irritation to the skin. There are more and more alcohol-free lotions on the market now, but they can also play the role of alcohol, especially some plant formulas, which you can choose. You can judge whether there is alcohol by observing the foam in the lotion. Generally, lotions with large foam that disappear quickly contain alcohol.

Does a toner that produces fine bubbles that don't easily disappear mean it's good water?

uncertain.

There is a saying circulating on the Internet: To judge whether a lotion is good or not, shake the bottle and look at the bubbles. If the bubbles are fine and not easy to disappear, then the water is good.

This has no scientific basis. If the foam does not disappear for a long time, it means that it contains a large amount of surfactant. Usually so many surfactants are added in order to use them as solvents for adding fragrances. Toners with relatively high levels of surfactants and fragrances are prone to cause allergies and damage the skin.

Some lotions contain alcohol, but that doesn't mean the more foam the better.
