A handful of hand sanitizers ~ fragranced body product review

Posted by on 10 Comments

I’ve never thought as much about hand sanitizer in my life as I’ve thought about it over the past five months. Sure, I typically had a half-used bottle of the stuff floating around in my tote bag, for moments when I want to clean my hands after touching an ATM or eating something messy on the go. Who ever thought hand sanitizer would become a hot commodity in Spring 2020?1

A lemming courtesy of Kevin: traditional olive oil and laurel soaps, shaped like grapes and figs, and packaged in boxes or in rope clusters.

At Floating House Collection.

Aha, who knew I could run through so much hand sanitizer? A possible addition to my collection, although I don't know if the alcohol level is high enough: Aesop's Resurrection Rinse-Free Hand Wash, with mandarin, rosemary and cedar. "An alcohol-based hand wash to cleanse and refresh. The perfect, pocket-sized product to ensure perpetually clean hands. When fresh water is unavailable, this gentle formula will kill bacteria and combat contagions, simultaneously delivering moisturising agents to ensure hands aren't stripped of moisture. The essential companion for those who travel by public transport." 50 ml for $10 at Luckyscent.

From the AntiCovid-19 collection at Carthusia, Mediterraneo hand sanitzer gel, €19 for 500 ml or €8 for 80 ml. There are also hand wipes in Fiori di Capri (although it does not say if the alcohol content is high enough to qualify as a sanitizer) and face masks with the brand logo.

From TonyMoly's new Minions collection, Strawberry Banana Lip Balm. "Don't be fooled by the cute packaging! This limited edition deliciously scented lip balm smells like a freshly blended strawberry banana smoothie while providing nutrition and deep moisture to treat dry and fatigued lips. Adorably pocket-sized, this balm features an exclusive Minions charm and key chain..." $12, and the matching hand milk is $10 for 45 ml.
