Step-by-Step Guide to Making Your Hand Rub
Step 1
To begin your DIY process, sanitize all supplies that will come in contact with the Hand Rub Gel Base with isopropyl alcohol to ensure it is safe and effective.
Step 2
Add the hand-rub gel base to a funnel pitcher or glass measuring cup. To ensure you use every bit of the base, carefully slice the container in half with a utility knife, always cutting away from your body.
Step 3
Enhance your hand rub by adding 0.25-0.5% Essential Oil or Fragrance Oil for added benefits and aroma. We recommend using Essential Oils like Lavender 40/42 for their natural antibacterial and antifungal properties. Ensure that the concentration is skin-safe and test it in a small amount of base to avoid thinning the gel.
Step 4
Mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients evenly and achieve a consistent texture.
Step 5
Finally, use a funnel or funnel pitcher to pour your customized alcohol hand rub into the container of your choice. For smaller openings, such as those in lotion mini containers, a pipette can be helpful.
