Purchasing
pocket-size hand sanitizers can add up. Although the little units
may seem inexpensive, frequent purchases of these products can turn
into quite an investment. Sure, it's fine if they're mounted in
public spaces for free usage. However for those of us who like to
take ownership and carry them around on a regular basis: you need
to be aware that it can become a surprisingly significant added
cost to our standard of living. That being said, here's a simple
penny-pinching method on how to make your own waterless hand
sanitizer at home.
Instructions:
Step 1:
1 Cup of Aloe Vera GelStep 2:
1 Teaspoon of Rubbing AlcoholStep 3:
2 Teaspoons of Vegetable GlycerinStep 4:
8 - 10 Drops of Tea Tree Essential Oil/Lavender Essential OilDid you know that…
• Hand sanitizers are both toxic and flammable
• Can damage and destroy your skin's natural anti-bodies
• May discolour certain metal surfaces and cloths
• Not all hand sanitizers are created equally
• Alcohol concentration on average is 60-95%, anything less than 60% isn't enough to be effective
• Hand sanitizers work better at lower temperatures
