We are all so use to products with alcohol in them as we think alcohol kills everything and yes you are right! Think about what alcohol does to the inside of your body, why would it be any different on the outside?

Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are effective at keeping microorganisms at bay and preventing bacteria from getting into your system that can make you sick, "However, over sanitizing your hands can strip them of all germs good and bad.

Your immune system actually uses germs to build its own strength - your body needs to be introduced to germs in order for your immune system to know how to defend itself from invaders.

"Using hand sanitizer with alcohol too often kills all microorganisms, including the harmless ones that help your immune system, Although you may be sanitizing your hands with the best of intentions in mind, over-sanitizing your hands can actually increase your risk of getting sick by not allowing your body to be exposed to bacteria and germs.

This is why we created natural sanitizer products that use natural ingredients to kill bad germs, sanitize and keep your skin moist without drying to further create more problems.

So what should you do?

"First and foremost, hand sanitizer should be used as a backup tool to hand washing, "You should be washing your hands regularly and only using hand sanitizer when soap and water aren't available."

In other words, hand sanitizers shouldn't replace hand washing, but rather as a supplement to washing your hands.
