I find hand creams to be thicker than most body lotions. I definitely use them in place of body lotion when I need some extra moisture.What are the differences between body lotions and hand creams, generally? I feel like thanks to Birchbox I have a ton of nicely scented hand creams that I will never get through and was wondering if I could use them elsewhere.
@@liilak usually hand cream is thicker than body cream. Your hands just get so much more abuse than the rest of your skin (exposed to dry air and water more frequently) so they usually need something thicker. You can try using your hand creams on other parts of your body but may want to spot check things before slathering it over the place. There are areas on my arms and legs that break out in a rash if I use some heavily scented items but I have lots of allergies.
Yeah I agree with what others said, usually hand cream is just thicker and more heavily scented than lotion.What are the differences between body lotions and hand creams, generally? I feel like thanks to Birchbox I have a ton of nicely scented hand creams that I will never get through and was wondering if I could use them elsewhere.
Same here. I cancelled one of mine for this month. The other I will leave up to BB gods. I already got two of the three items already in my boxes anyway.not impressed by the curated boxes or sample choice /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
If you have allergies I recommend Philosophy Hands of Hope. I use it as a face cream because I am allergic to almost every other cream that I've tried and get really dry patches on my face. It has no scent at all!Yep that was what I was wondering about as I have allergies as well.
