Shoppers describe a range of textures and absorption rates: lightweight, fast-absorbing, non‑greasy lotions at one end, and thicker, richer creams and balms that absorb more slowly at the other.
They are often multiuse: primarily for hands and feet, and also for other dry areas such as elbows, knees, the face (on dry patches), and cuticles.
Many options are unscented or labeled “no fragrance added,” while a smaller number list light scents such as floral, almond, or a fresh fragrance.
