Finding Hand Sanitizer in NYC these days is a bit difficult among the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
Hand Sanitizer is drying! It’s alcohol and that what it does! But these days it is a need to help us feel safe.
I mostly use Mrs. Meyers Clean Day Lavender Scented Hand Sanitizer spray, because it has less of a drying effect since it has essential oils. I don’t know their recipe but I have concocted my own based on it’s listed ingredients.
