3-Ingredient Natural
Homemade Hand Sanitizer
This 3-ingredient aloe
and lavender recipe uses the natural germ fighting properties in tea tree oil
to create an alcohol-free hand sanitizer.
Having a hand sanitizer in your
purse or car to use in a pinch comes in handy when good old-fashioned soap and
water are nowhere in sight.
However, most commercial hand
sanitizers use alcohol as the antibacterial agent. These products are often
drying and burn if you have even the slightest scratch on your hand, which can be
painful for adults, not to mention children.
To make matters worse, many
commercial sanitizers contain synthetic fragrances and parabens to extend the
shelf life of the product. Luckily, creating a homemade hand sanitizer that
contains only pure ingredients couldn’t be easier.
This DIY version is free of
harsh ingredients and combines the soothing aroma of
lavender with tea tree oil to combat germs, all in a
moisturizing aloe vera-based gel. Grab a small pump
or squeeze bottle and let’s get started!
Start out with an aloe vera gel that is pure and contains no
fillers. A great aloe vera gel dries quickly, is
moisturizing, and isn’t sticky. Aloe vera gel is available online and in
health food stores, with plenty of natural brands to choose from.
Pour aloe vera gel into a pump or squeeze
bottle. Next, add 3-4 drops of high quality tea tree oil and 4 drops of lavender oil. Lavender oil also has
antiviral and antibacterial properties of its own.
If you prefer a stronger scent,
add in a few more drops of lavender. Secure the lid and give the mixture a
shake. Store your sanitizer in a convenient spot, like a purse or in your glove
compartment.
