Hand Sanitizer Recipe

**RE-POSTED from our Facebook Page (March 4th) **

It is no secret that Coronavirus has caused panic throughout the world. If you have visited a pharmacy lately you may have noticed that they are having a hard time keeping certain things on the shelves. Masks have basically disappeared, and now hand-sanitizer is becoming more and more in demand and it too is now running short.

Today we received an email from Mystic Moments UK (a bath and body supplier that A - Z Soaps orders from on occasion). In this email, they included a recipe for a homemade hand sanitizer.

** Please note their and our warning. This hand sanitizer is not a substitute for proper handwashing. This recipe DOES NOT include or meet the CDC 60% alcohol standards and it will not "kill" the Coronavirus. This home recipe is just to help give people peace of mind. Should they want a hand sanitizer and can't find any this is better than nothing. **

Ingredients:

Alcohol (any cheap brand vodka will do) Aloe Vera Gel Essential oil(s)

The recipe they use is made in a 100ml bottle. 1/3 of vodka (about 33ml) 40 drops of Essential Oils (please read the descriptions of the oils before use) Aloe Vera Gel (added to the bottle to fill)

You can find Aloe Vera Gel online at many supplies:
