Purell Hand Sanitiser

With a young infant at home, and working in schools all day, I need something that is going to kill germs fast and this is my weapon of choice.

I have used both the natural and the aloe vera versions of this product and I prefer the aloe vera. The main reason for this is that the smell is nicer, and it keeps my hands moisturised.

I am going to do this review slightly different and write a letter to purell.

Dear Purell.

Thank you, thank you for making the only thing that helped me keep 32 teenagers from spreading more germs (well you and swiffer wipes but that's for another review).

I was working at a summer camp in america and swine flu was brought into our camp...... over 40 people had it and people were dropping like flies.... we were ill and falling. We had over 450 people at camp so we took action. We sanitized everything. I would have showered in purell, in fact I probably did. Not only was your product gentle on my skin it helped us to remain open and after the 70 people who got swine flu recovered it kept it at bay. We were one of the only camps to stay open, control an outbreak and get better - most camps too many staff became ill and caused a closure.

After that our summer continued as if nothing had happened. BUT. We all to this day use purell. Especially if you are around people who are sick.

I can not recommened this enough. Sure I would rather spend my money on pretty beauty products but I also enjoy not having the flu.....

Thanks purell xx Love from that girl that had swine flu in america with 32 kids.

With a hand sanitizer I look for three things, absorbs quickly, doesn’t have a strong smell and makes my hand feels great.

This is perfect; it leaves my hands feeling really clean.

I work in an office and deal with people and money, keeping this in my desk is a life saver for those times when you feel a bit ick!

I work in ECE, and that means I am constantly washing and sanitizing my hands. I found my hands began to get really dry and tight with the sanitizer worked supplied so I began looking for an alternative.

Purell was affordable and came in both a large and compact size! The compact size was small enough for me to keep in my jacket pocket, so I could use it throughout the day, without it being inconvenient to go and get the sanitizer. Additionally, the smaller version is also handy to have when shopping, to quickly disinfect your hands before having lunch (we all know how dirty pin pads are).

I would describe the consistency of this product as a thin gel that absorbs quickly, which is ideal when working with children!

Additionally, it does not dry my hands out and I trust that it is killing most of the bacteria on my hands. I’ll be honest, this product does not smell fantastic, and has the generic alcohol smell that most hand sanitizers do. However, I find that one the sanitizer has dried, the smell disappears just as quickly.

A little of this product goes along way, and so I find it economical as well as convenient. It is a product that is found in my house, car, and my workplace! I use the big bottle at home to fill up my compact bottle, and it’s even more economical this way. Definitely a must have in any household!

This product is a must for any women's hand bag especially if you have small kids.

I have the larger size in the bathroom and the small size in my handbag. I use this throughout the day when I have to greet a lot of people and also before I eat.

I find that compared to other products it does not dry out my skin and the pump bottle and even the smaller squeeze bottle are very easy to use and you don't end up wasting any. It absorbs quickly into your hands and you are left with no residue on your hands.

The only draw back is the smell. It has a very strong smell but as long as you don't go sniffing it straight from the bottle you will be fine.

This is a great hand sanitizer for at home work or with the kids. When I found out I was pregnant with my eldest I was very nervous about germs and picking up bugs etc especially as I worked on a farm with lots of animals. So I always kept a bottle anywhere and everywhere cars, work vehicles, home, office and used it all the time. I would even use it after washing my hands. I loved it because my hands felt clean, they never dried out (even with excessive use!) there was never any sticky residue yes the smell is an alcohol/meths smell but it's not overpowering or that off putting. Both sizes are great from the mini travel one in a squeeze bottle or the larger size with a pump. I love how it absorbs into your skin instantly its quite runny so you have to squeeze or pump gently and you don't need to use much. I now find this great with older kids especially if we are out and about and there is nowhere to wash hands close by. A great product for everybody

I absolutely love Purell! I carry a small bottle of Purell hand sanitiser in my hand bag at all times and it is perfect to use if you are out and about and touch something a bit gross or after using a public bathroom.

Purell comes out of the bottle in a liquid/gel and you have to quickly rub your hands together. What I love is that it doesn't leave any nasty smell or residue on your hands, and leaves them feeling clean!

Perfect handbag accessory. I love the alcohol smell this has, it makes my hands feel nice and clean. It's the perfect item to have in your handbag for those times you may touch something and feel you need to give your hands a quick clean.

I enjoy using this product as I always like to know my hands are clean. I keep a bottle in my car and find this is handy to use after going to the supermarket, after touching the dirty trolleys. This bottle is the perfect size for convenience in carrying it in my handbag or in my car, I always like to have a bottle on me!

I love this hand sanitiser. Its my ride or die. I have been obsessed with this hand sanitiser ever since the household got sick a few years ago and I realised how important hygiene really is. I have been using this ever since and it does a real good job of killing germs.

This is such a good product. I am confident that it kill germs and keeps my hands hygienic and clean. Its so easy to carry around as I buy the 60ml one. It fits perfectly in my handbag and I also keep one in the glove box of my car. Its handy to have lying around. It smells good and doesn't strip my skin of moisture either. I feel it is moisturising. I will defiantly been repurchasing as it is a family favourite.
