we travelled to Tanzanis recently we got through a lot of hand sanitiser. And I thought I reckon

I could make that at home. So it only requires two ingredients. For the basic hand sanitiser,

I am doing. So if you would like to learn how to do this then please stick around and I

will show you how. The two ingredients for this alcohol based hand sanitiser is rubbing

alcohol which is also know as isopropyl alcohol and aloe vera gel. Then you will also need

a little bottle to put it in and some equipment such as a disposable spoon and a funnel. i also used a skewer as

you will see later on. Place the funnel into your bottle. The ratios required to make this

alcohol based hand sanitiser are 2/3 rubbing alcohol to 1/3 aloe vera gel. So I'm putting

in 6 spoons of rubbing alcohol and then 3 spoons of aloe vera gel. The instructions

are in the description box below so go check that out, if you would like. The website for

centres for disease control and prevention states that studies have found that hand sanitisers

with alcohol concentrations of between 60 and 95% are more effective at killing germs

then those with lower alcohol concentration or non-alcohol based hand sanitiser. Therefore It's

really important that your homemade hand sanitiser is at least 60% alcohol. The best way I found

to get this aloe vera gel into the container was to just use skewer and do a motion up and

down and then bang it on the table. Hey eventually it got there, it didn't take that long at

all really, under 5 minutes. Once it's all combined use your skewer to mix the aloe vera

gel and the rubbing alcohol together. Give it a really good mix then put the lid on and

give it a really good shake. Don't use a hand sanitiser if your hands are visibly dirty,

just go to the sink and wash your hands with soap and water. The best way to use hand sanitiser

is to squirt a blob on your hand, and then rub throughout your hands, making sure that

you get between your fingers, around your thumb, on top of your hand, underneath, until

your hands are completely dry. Let me know if this as inspired you to make your own hand sanitiser.

Before you next travel. Guys I have actually kept it pretty basic because I don't mind

the smell of alcohol. I actually work in a hospital we are constantly putting hand sanitiser

on before and after we see patients. So i'm just use to that smell. But if you wanted

to have a nice smell then there are some essential oils that you can use. I have a got few more travel

essential videos coming up, so if you haven't subscribed please do. And then you will know

when I upload. Alrighty guys! I will see you next Wednesday! Bye!
