My partner applied a little lotion on his condom, and i want to know will that infect me in any way?

No: Not unless you're allergic or sensitive to it's components. Caution, vaseline and some lotions can interact with latex condoms, causing breakage!

Possibly: Was it oil-based lotion? Best not to use butter, margarine, cooking oils. Vaseline, petroleum jelly or hand/body lotions or creams with latex condoms because it can cause them to break.
