ALCOGEL with Aloe
Instant Hand Sanitizer

Kills germs even without water. To keep hands clean and sanitary anytime of the day. Dermatologist tested.

Apart from the handy and invigorating facial wipes I told you guys about, another thing that’s in my bag during my trip was this particular product, an Instant Hand Sanitizer. It’s ALCOGEL with Aloe from local brand bench/.

I reckon my trip to First Aid, after I had my nails done, allowed me to browse through various products that proved useful for my trip. We all know that traveling will entail a lot of sacrifices, esp if it means long roadtrips via public transport at that. This can mean you will subject to an uncontrolled environment, which can test your tolerance of dirt, grime and, hey, we’re not all built to have a strong immune system, right? So, we do have to think about hygiene and disinfecting procedures when visiting a foreign land. This is not saying that the place I’ve been to was dirty, it’s just a matter of not taking unnecessary risks.

Having this instant hand sanitizer was awesome since it allowed access to clean hands before and after snacking, banking on its promise to kill 99.9% of germs. It lessened the risk of irritating the skin on the face (when the need to touch it arose). It didn’t dry up my skin (hands) and it didn’t emit a strong smell. It’s very gently and non-intrusive. It feels a little like using water on my hands. Twas refreshing, too.

It’s very handy — I opted for the small 50ml bottle — and was allowed to be carried inside the plane (according the new policy on such things). It fits in my vanity kit just right. This bottle only costs Php 28.00 (around $ 0.70).

Suggested application: Apply a small amount on hands. No need to add water. Rub lightly until dry.
