face/hand cream

[dondons]

Is there anything against using hand cream on your face in place of face cream?

I do if I'm stuck for anything better. I think it can be a bit heavy and stuff for your face is supposed to be lighter, I am sure someone will says it's bad for you, but so are most things.

I was once told - when asking the same question - that the molecules in hand cream are bigger and won't permeate facial skin as well as a facial cream would. But I do it too - minding my eyes, though.

Speaking from the male perspective, I don't see any difference other than the label - which usually shows the major component to be aqua - water in English!

I have a similar discussion with my wife when she buys bathroom spray cleaner and kitchen spray cleaner.

I'll now put my tin hat on and await the flak!!

Thanks to you all for your comments(particularly as I posted it in totally the wrong section) I shall therefore continue to save money and use handcream!
