Quite a few years back I get amazed when my 5yr old school going brother take out the bottle and clean up his hands. I asked him what is this? He replied that’s Hand sanitizer, compulsory to use during school hours. Indeed we are like living in a hi-tech century and kids are smarter than us.
Regular use of soap and water make my hand’s skin more sensitive and dry so I opted for hand sanitizer and found my skin condition improved. I used 90% alcohol-based sanitizer as the bacteria are more dramatic in hospitals.
Recently few weeks backs I got a chance to try my hands on Himalaya skincare products PureHands Hand Sanitizer. Before talking about My experience with Himalaya PureHands Hand Sanitizer let’s have a look at some facts and figures about hand sanitizers and your health.
According to the WHO 80 percent of infection spread through contaminated hands including swine flu. Hence WHO recommend hand hygiene as first line of defence against infection.
Since water and soaps are not available all the time hand sanitizers come to rescue.
What do you mean by Hand sanitizer?
It’s alcohol based formulation with thin viscous consistency effectively kills microorganism And hence decrease hand infection.
How to use hand sanitizer?
Take coin-sized sanitizer on hand. Rub it thoroughly on hands until dry. Don’t use water, or cloth to wipe this will vanish the effects of sanitizer.
When do I use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer?
Soap and water are the best way to clean your hands. But they are not available all the time like while traveling, meeting etc.
Hand sanitizer proved to be a great option in these situations. It’s recommended to use hand sanitizer with 60% alcohol content.
According to WHO healthcare guidelines on hand hygiene, it’s found that alcohol-based hand sanitizer was more effective than plain soap and water in preventing the transmission of bacteria.
- Routine hand cleansing.
- Before eating.
- Before and after attending a meeting a sick person.
- Before touching kids
- While traveling.
- After using public washroom.
- After handling pets
- After visiting a hospital.
Will bacteria become resistant on consistent use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers
No regular use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers doesn’t makes bacteria resistant. The alcohol in Sanitizers causes cell membrane disruption and that’ll not make the bacteria resistant. Hence the regular use of sanitizer is safe.

My Favourite is Litche
Himalaya’s PureHands is the first of its kind, as it is an effective, alcohol-based hand sanitizer, which kills 99.9% of germs, prevents infection, and ensures total hand hygiene.The use of hand sanitizer can reduce the risk of different diseases like flo, E-coli, diarrhea and many others. I would highly recommend this Himalaya’s PureHands Hand Sanitizer is using by my kids my 4 year daughter using it at school before eating and after playing, sneezing or coughing. I think this way we can really ensure total hand hygiene and germ protection.
IT IS A GREAT AND SAFE WAY TO PROTECT MY FAMILY FROM GERMS.
