What is the difference between hand lotion and foot lotion?
OK, I know hand lotion is used on the hands and foot lotion is used on the feet. That I know. But as for the actual lotion itself, what is the difference in the types of lotion? Why different lotions for the feet and the hands? The foot lotion I have does not have anything in it which would take off dead skin or anything which can sometimes build up on the feet. It is lotion. Nothing ‘rough’ in it. So how in the world can I find out why there is a so called difference between hand lotion and foot lotion. I know one answer would be "the ingredients" but if ingredients is the answer, what is it about the ingredients that makes the lotions different? Thank you.
I only know about Mary Kay. The hand cream is designed to keep working even after washing hands often. Feet aren’t exposed to water as often. That leads to another difference. The foot products usually have fragrance to help with foot odor or have a deodorant. Mary Kay’s has a great mint scent.
You can use the same.

If they just sold lotion, you’d only buy one. If they sell foot lotion, body lotion, face lotion, and hand lotion, they can convince a lot of customers to buy one of each.
It’s lotion. And marketing.
(you know, after seeing "lotion" repeated enough times, it stops looking like a real word…)

No difference. Maybe the price. Great marketing and consumer stupidity makes a lot of money for big companies.
Rub a little coconut or palm oil on your hands and feet. You can use any oil, but it seems those two solid oils work best and last longest without giving you that horrible ’slippery oily’ feel. It does the same thing without the long-term consequences associated with some of the chemicals and petro-derived products used in conventional products.
If your feet are stinky (mine get really bad) dump some witch hazel on them after a shower and let it dry on - ahhh, odorless. Then put on the oil.

Our skin on our feet is the thickest on our body, due to daily use of our feet, we have to deal with lots of problem, such as corn, calluses and crack on heels. Foot lotion is design to deal with these problems, that’s why they are heavier. Which compare to feet, our hands are not as dry, so hand lotions are usually lighter.

Foot lotion is almost always thicker than hand lotion. Skin tends to be drier and thicker on your feet than on your hands. You can definatly use any sort of lotion on your feet, but the lotions made specifically for feet work themselves into the tough foot skin better.
