6 of the Most Moisturizing Hand Sanitizers

6 of the Most Moisturizing Hand Sanitizers

Over the last year, there are a few words and phrases we’ve heard on repeat—social distancing, masks, and of course, hand sanitizer. There was a little blip where hand sanitizer was as good as gold, but manufacturers have caught up, and we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief. While there’s plenty of choices on the market, most hand sanitizers use alcohol as the active ingredient to work their magic. Needless to say, alcohol can be pretty drying and wreak a little havoc on your skin if you’re not careful. The good news is, there are plenty of hand sanitizers that are gentle on your skin but just as effective. Not sure which one to choose? Here are 6 of the best moisturizing hand sanitizers.
