I was looking at the compression pantyhose for older folks with poor circulation...and it seems that the older folks have a problem with donning the support garment, and this product is to help ease the donning and doffin of compression garments. so I'm thinkin would this work for a neoprene wetsuit? its 100% silicone...
Juzo ALPS 100% Silicone Fitting Lotion/skin Conditioner

I'm just thinking maybe it would help with the leg part of the wetsuit? or will this lotion damage the neoprene? I'm sure you only use a little?
 
I don't know about the silicone lotion, but I just use a dive skin under my 7mm wetsuit. The wetsuit slides on fairly easily over the dive skin (since it's made of a slippery nylon fabric).

I've also heard of people using soapy water in a spray bottle to help with donning their suit.
