Has your supermarket already run out of hand sanitizer? Keep calm and do it yourself! ? It is quite easy to make your own hand sanitizer at home. Just take all the ingredients and mix! However, we would like to remind everyone that the best way to always have clean hands is to wash them with soap and water. However, in absence of water, hand sanitiser can come to the rescue. To be effective, it should always be used on dry hands. The alcohol base neutralises the viability of microbes. This recipe is for self-producing a liquid hand sanitiser, which is then placed in a spray bottle and can also be used for surfaces. In this case, it is better to spray it on a cloth first and always remember that it is highly flammable.
Preparation
Take all the ingredients, weigh them and mix them.
The alcohol disinfects and the vegetable glycerine both soothes and makes the alcohol evaporate less quickly.
Hydrolate can be chosen from orange blossom, for its wonderful scent, or camomile, for its soothing action.
The essential oil can be chosen according to the preferred fragrance.
How to use
Spray the sanitiser on dry hands.
It can also be sprayed on a cloth and then applied to surfaces.
Always beware of the high degree of flammability.
