It depends on the texture that you prefer and the amount of moisture penetration that you want. Creams for feet are usually thicker to get deeper tissue penetration, but that would be uncomfortable for hands as you would have a film or layer of cream that would make it difficult to hold onto things like pens, etc. If you do not need the extremely thick creams for moisturizing, you can use a light lotion everywhere. A good one to try is Complex 15 lotion, which is also fragrance free.R different moisturizers for example... hand cream,foot cream,nail cream,body lotion etc necessary to use?
If you are not prone to break outs, you can use regular lotion all over. My boyfriend does and he had beutiful skin. I only use body lotion and face lotion because face lotion tends to be oil free and formulated not to clog pores. But sometimes I'll use regular lotion if my face is really dry and/or there is nothing else avalible.
I think the theory is that different parts of your body have different levels of dryness and therefore require different formulas. Also, lotions meant to nourish your nails probably have vitamins and special oils in them specifically for your hands (and a lot of foot lotions have anti-fungal properties).
