To avoid having to buy sanitizer at a pharmacy or supermarket, prepare it yourself.

This product will provide no less effective protection, while having a beneficial effect on the skin of the hands.

What do you need for this? First, ¾ cup of ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. You should not use vodka or other strong alcoholic drinks, since their alcohol content is less than 60%.

Fill the remaining quarter cup with aloe vera gel. Since the product consists of 99% extract of the juice of the well-known plant, it can be replaced directly with aloe juice.

All that remains is to add 10 drops of essential oil, for example, lavender.

If you don’t have ether at hand, you can use regular lemon juice.

To give the disinfectant a gel-like consistency, mix all the ingredients and then whisk them together.

All that remains is to pour the antiseptic into a suitable container and label it so as not to forget the contents.
