The onslaught of coronavirus doesn't seem to slow down anytime soon. The death toll of this almost unstoppable virus is increasing alarmingly all over the world. What is more unfortunate is, there is no drug or vaccine available yet to safeguard us against COVID-19. The best we can do is take precautionary measures. The most crucial protection is handwash, since the virus sneaks into our system through our mouth and nose, via our hands. Apart from rinsing with soap and water, there's another way of keeping your hands clean: Using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. However, they started vanishing form the market long back and with a complete lockdown now, the condition is even worse. But this shouldn't come in the way of keeping your hands clean. You can make your own hand sanitizer at home. We tell you how.
DIY hand sanitizers are quite easy to make but they are equally hazardous too. Lack of efficiency in the homemade sanitizers may not be able to eliminate the risk of exposure and it may also cause skin irritation, rashes etc. Therefore, it is suggested that you strictly stick to the proper proportions of the ingredients mentioned above.
Even though sanitizer may kill a lot of germs but it's hard to say whether it is effective or not. For example, if your hands are greasy or slimy, try washing your hands with soap and water instead of using sanitizer because it may not work well or may be totally ineffective.
