There is a lot more awareness of avoiding the spread of germs this year, which means hand sanitizer is in high demand. Not all of it is safe for use, though - for some, the quality is questionable, and others use ingredients that aren't as safe as others. One common ingredient in hand sanitizer is alcohol, but that can be drying to the skin. I had a chance to sample ElimiShield, an alcohol-free hand sanitizer. Trying something that didn't dry my skin out was a huge bonus, since Minnesota gets pretty dry in the winter! Although I obviously don't know how many germs are eliminated from my skin when I use it, I do have to say that it left my hands feeling better than some types of hand sanitizer!
The new ElimiShield Home & Outdoor Hand Sanitizer helps prevent over-drying of hands that can leave them susceptible to infection. In fact, the company has taken extra measures to protect the hands and has added aloe vera to keep hands soft and moisturized. For a more pleasurable experience, a fresh citrus scent has also been added to the formula.
Unlike other hand sanitizers on the market, the ElimiShield product does not soak into the blood system. It also doesn’t need to be reapplied constantly throughout the day like regular hand sanitizers because it bonds to the outer layer of the skin and is both sweat resistant and wash resistant.I had a chance to interview Tommy Lancaster, COO, Bryson Industries (Parent company of ElimiShield) to learn more.
Why is it important that this sanitizer isn't absorbed into the bloodstream? Alcohol based hand sanitizers are transdermal, which means alcohol can enter the blood stream through the skin. Excessive use can lead to health issues akin to consuming alcohol. Over use of alcohol hand sanitizers can be especially unhealthy for children. Alcohol also dries the skin which can lead to other skin health issues.
How can people use hand sanitizer most effectively and safely? The benefit of ElimiShield is that it reduces the need to apply often. Alcohol evaporates quickly and leaves no protection against contamination just seconds after it’s applied. ElimiShield leaves a barrier of protection for hours with a single application. ElimiShield also incudes moisturizers that improves skin health and simply just feels better.
What are some times that people often forget to use sanitizer that they should be? When relying on alcohol based hand sanitizers you should sanitize often between hand washings. Every time someone touches anything from money to hand rails and everything in between, their hands are susceptible to contamination. ElimiShield leaves a barrier on the skin for long periods of time which drastically reduces the need to apply often.
“ElimiShield is a trusted name in scent and germ control,” said Tommy Lancaster, COO. “We offer the very best products on the market that stop the spread of germs and our new Home & Outdoor Hand Sanitizer is ideal for everyday use by virtually everybody.”
The new ElimiShield Home & Outdoor Sanitizer is available at retailers nationwide and conveniently online at www.hssvest.com and Amazon. The suggested retail price is $12.99 standard 200 ml size or $5.99 for the convenient 50 ml travel size.
