Why would you want to make your own hand sanitizer when it’s readily and economically available? I did a search for dangers of antibacterial gels and soaps recently and got 2, 670,000 results! They are full of chemicals that can affect our skin, heart, immune system, and our endocrine system, disrupting hormones and possibly even causing cancer. They are also responsible for helping to create super bugs that are antibiotic resistant.
So here are two recipes for hand sanitizer you might like:
Hand Cleanser
5-10 drops Lavender EO
30 drops Melaleuca EO (or Protective blend)
1 tbls. witch hazel extract
8 oz aloe vera gel
¾ tsp. vitamin e oil
1. Add essential oils and vitamin oil to small glass bowl, swirl to mix
2. Add witch hazel, swirl to mix.
3. Add this to aloe vera gel and mix well
4. Shake gently before each use.
Simple version:
I use a 1 oz. spray bottle, put in about 12 drops of Protective Blend and 3 drops of Lemon and fill with purified water. (If you add a small amount of sea salt, it will help keep the oils emulsified. ) Shake before using!
I carry this in my purse and use it every time I’m at the grocery store or before eating when I'm at a restaurant
(Smells good too!)
This is my passion~to share what I have found to work so well for me, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually!
Abundant blessings to you, always.
