DIY hand sanitizer

Making your own hand sanitizer is easier than you think! This DIY version is perfect for when you’re feeling crafty or if (in a worse case scenario) you can’t find hand sanitizer in stores. This three ingredient hand sanitizer will keep you protected from germs while you’re on-the-go without any unnecessary or harmful ingredients.

What you’ll need

• 2/3 cup Rubbing Alcohol (Above 90%)
• 1/3 cup Aloe Vera Gel
• 1-3 drops Essential Oils (If you want some fragrance)

Mix ingredients together and store in jar or bottle.

Make sure to only use rubbing alcohol that’s 90% alcohol or higher. According to CDC, hand sanitizer has to be at least 60% alcohol to be effective. The rubbing alcohol will be diluted a bit by the aloe vera, which is why a high alcohol percentage is needed!

Enjoy!
