Is it okay to wash hands with body soap?

I finished pooping and realised my liquid hand soap had run out, so I used a body soap bar to wash them. I had to go outside and use the hand soap in another bathroom to make sure my hands were clean.

Can you use body soap to wash hands properly?

Your hands are part of your body so it should be ok.

Exactly. I think the bigger question here is whether hand-soap is sufficient to use as body wash? 🤔
