For me it's Carex original, it's the best of the best, smells like you just escaped from heaven, any other opinions?

I haven't tasted enough of them yet to give an honest opinion

Quite fond of the Handmade Soap Company’s sanitiser. It smells amazing.

Atlantic Dawn · 14-11-2020 2:54am

I could do lines of the Carex off the gates of hell.

I tend to use oven cleaner, just to be safe, but then I discovered that Is basically what cartels use to dissolve corpses. No wonder my Jo Brands have been so chapped lately.

The glove!

The Queen of England won't touch one of her subjects without one, and I don't blame her!

TerminB8 is very refreshing it has a lovely citrus scent.

Hate most of the santiser in shops.
Slimy and/or stinky.

Can we please have unscented santiser with just alcohol, peroxide, glycerol and water in public places?
If you expect people to use it, that is.

freshpopcorn · 14-11-2020 11:35am

I know one of the Dealz smells awful!

biko · 14-11-2020 2:09pm

Isopropyl alcohol with some essential oils blended in.

DrPhilG · 14-11-2020 2:12pm

Anything but the crap that most shops use, like snot in a bottle.

smurfjed · 14-11-2020 5:19pm

Have over 30 bottles of sanitiser, not a hoarder but I get a couple of bottles every day I work.

Getting to the stage where my suitcase will need a dangerous goods sticker.

r93kaey5p2izun · 14-11-2020 5:30pm

Prosan, but it's expensive and difficult to get hold of. Sanity that Supervalu stock isn't bad for the price.

ShagNastii · 14-11-2020 5:30pm

Don't have a fav, but the perfumed ones are the work of the devil.

Give us one not too thick with a nice clean alcoholly smell and we're good.

Never mind the sanitizer, it's the hand cream that I have to use in industrial quantities to offset the drying effect of the constant handwashing and sanitizing that really matters.

Nuxe, Aveeno or Palmers, ftw.

I know know as i actually have a life

Constant hand-washing has destroyed my hands to the point where it's probably too late for moisturising hand cream. Amputation might be a better idea. If Mother Teresa of Calcutta, may she rest in peace, had a scrotum, that's basically what my hands look like.

The ones Tesco use are the opposite, they are way too liquid and you've to shake your hands to get it off

It's never too late to moisturize!

Get the Carex with the aloe vera. It's the biz.

Good news. It won't dissolve your bones.

Only the tissue around them.

L1011 · 14-11-2020 9:11pm

The cleaning company in work supplies one that doesn't smell of much (you can get the alcohol note briefly), dries off quickly and doesn't leave a residue. Can't remember the name now but I checked back in March/April and its only available commercially.

90% of the ones out there are either stinky, sticky or both. Or take multiple minutes to dry.

I use surgical spirits(95% alcohol) with like you some essential oils, mostly a hint of rosemary or frankincense mixed in. Dries near instantly and I found my skin is happy out with it. If anything my skin feels softer these days. Then again people's skin varies so much and my mix could leave others looking like they had rampant hand leprosy. Case in point the near pure alcohol is great, but a fair number of liquid soaps leave my skin irritated.

Was in a hotel in Waterford during the summer and the sanitizer smelt like tequilla, Jasus I felt like I should not have driven after putting it on my hands.

Can't use pure alcohol as it evaporates too fast , there has to be enough contact time to do it's job.

But yeah it shouldn't be sticky

Any of Molten Browns is where its at!!

owlbethere · 14-11-2020 11:42pm

I have a bottle of hand sanitizer that smells of after shave. I don't have the brand name with me right now. It makes my eyes water when I sniff it of my hands.
