Homemade Natural Moisturising Hand Sanitiser recipe
Arm yourself with a softly-scented natural version of hand sanitizer using this recipe:
Ingredients:
5-10 drops lavender essential oil
30 drops tea tree essential oil – this is a 0.5% concentration
1 Tablespoon witch hazel extract or high-proof vodka
235ml 100% pure aloe vera gel
¼ teaspoon Vitamin E oil – a natural preservative to increase shelf life (It will also help soften hands!)
Method
Add essential oils and Vitamin E oil to a small glass bowl or container and swirl to mix. Add witch hazel (or alcohol) to the oils and swirl again. Add this mixture to the aloe vera gel and mix well. Shake gently before each use. (Sanitizer should last several months with the addition of Vitamin E to help preserve.)
