Non-Sticky Hand Sanitizers: The Best Hand Washing Experience

Is your sanitizer sticky? Do you feel the gummy or pasty feel of residues on your hand after sanitizing? It is time to go for non-sticky hand sanitizer.
The FDA suggests 20-second handwashing with water and soap. However, it is not convenient to wash hands with water and soap in all places. You cannot carry water everywhere you go. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers provide an alternate and preferred solution. Get one or two drops of sanitizer, coat your hands, and rub the palm, fingers, and skin above. A sanitizer with at least 62% ethanol or isopropanol can kill 99.9% of germs.
Hand hygiene has emerged as an essential habit with the COVID-19 outbreak. Washing your hands of germs helps avoid digestive and respiratory disorders. It also provides you a potential shield against coronavirus infection. The World Health Organization (WHO) suggests using sanitizers to ensure hygiene and avoid Covid-19 transmission. However, a sticky gel residue in your hand post-cleansing leaves a bad experience and impacts your overall preparedness for regular hand hygiene. With a non-sticky hand sanitizer, you may find yourself more motivated to wash your hands and avoid the risks of infection.
If your hand sanitizer is sticky, you run the risk of catching germs quickly. Often manufacturers add moisturizers, soap-based formulations, or watery gels to sanitizers. The aim is to ensure your hand does not dry. Some add lubricants to sanitizers to help it spread. However, it feels sticky as alcohol dissolves and evaporates while the fatty oils remain. You may feel oily on your palms.
As a consumer, we buy sanitizers as it is easy to carry and doesn’t require water. But sticky formulations require you to wash your hand after using a sanitizer. This defeats the very purpose of using a sanitizer in place of soap-water handwash. A non-sticky hand sanitizer saves you from washing your hands after rubbing them. You don't have to look for water afterwards to rinse your hands. You can carry the non-sticky formulation whenever you go and use it at any place without any restriction.
A non-sticky hand sanitizer provides an overall better experience. When it is sticky, your hands can easily catch dust and germs within seconds of sanitizing them. This effectively erodes the protective benefits of a sanitizer.
