Some Innovative Ways To Use Hand Sanitizer You May Not Know About

Hand sanitizer is not just something you can use to sanitize your hands and practice natural skin care. There are so many other uses for it that you may not have known about before. Today, we will walk you through a few of the more innovative ways to use hand sanitizer.

Eliminate Marker Stains And Scuffs

Marker stains can be a pain to remove, especially if you have tried everything you have in the home to get rid of them only to find that nothing works. Try using your hand sanitizer!

Apply the hand sanitizer to the edge and toward the middle of the stain you need to remove, and let it sit for at least five minutes. Once the time is up, wipe it away. For harder surfaces, you may need to let it sit for at least ten minutes.

The same process can also be used to remove tough scuff marks from surfaces like flooring, countertops, and even your shoes.

Clean And Sanitize Household Items

Hand sanitizer containing at least 70% alcohol can be used to clean and disinfect different items around the home. For example, you can use it on different surfaces, including countertops, sinks, faucets, doorknobs, and gadgets. It can be sprayed on, and it dries quickly.

Remove Stubborn Stickers

If you have a price tag or any other kind of sticker you need to remove, then hand sanitizer can help you do so. The alcohol will help get through the adhesive of the sticker. Simply rub it into the sticker, let it sit for a few minutes, and then scrape the sticker off.

Relieve Ingrown Nails

If you are dealing with ingrown nails or hair, then you can also use a natural hand sanitizer to clean and disinfect the affected area. It can eliminate bacteria that cause inflammation too.

Quick Deodorant Substitute

Finally, hand sanitizer can also be used in place of deodorant when you find yourself in a bind. It can quickly and effectively kill odor-causing bacteria and other germs until you can get to the store for some deodorant.

As you can see, with so many hand sanitizer uses, you would be doing yourself a disservice not to have it in your arsenal for hygiene and natural skin care purposes.
