You're the ground. Apply and allow to dry before attaching positive electrode pad. Now enjoy the sunlight while the lotion generates current. A good ground connection would be piercing, connected to the 5v regulator. The output would be more than enough to charge a phone or similar.

       Probably not a big UK market...
