Hand Sanitiser

I love Dettol's hand sanitiser. I used this a year ago now as I am trying a different sanitiser. This product does what it says and comes in a little bottle for on the go (of which I had). It is very convenient to keep some sanitiser in your bag/purse and not many brands do a little bottle like dettol. My favourite sanitiser!

Tips: DON'T use too much as I found it was unpleasant and made my hands feel a tiny bit sticky.

No problem xD I think I will try Purell next :-)

Also, when I have very light dermatitis it only stings slightly, as well as medium amount (so lets say a bit worse than light on 3 fingers in small patches) is only a bit of a sting, but when harsh dermatitis I can hardly bear sanitiser.

Purell does still make my dermatitis sting and a little dry, but not as bad as Detol does. That is a brilliant idea, I don't know why I didn't think of that! Thank you, I will definitely moisturize afterwards.

I do find it a bit harsh on my dermatitis as well, but I found that putting on hand creame afterwards helped keep irration to the skin down. Does Purell not affect your dermatitis, in the slightest? Do you not have to use the hand creame afterwards?

Hello Jasmine, I am using Purell Hand Sanitiser at the moment, mostly because between this one and Purell I found Detol was a bit more harsh on my dermatitis. I hope this helps!

What made you stop using it? Did you just get tired of the product or did you find something better if so what ??

Kill those bugs!

Everyone should have one of these in their handbag. It is an essential if you are travelling overseas and this detol hand sanitiser is great. This is very effective if you use it properly and take the time to rub it in everywhere. It does have a strong scent when first applied but dries quickly and no longer smells. Would recommend to all and would happily repurchase as is reasonably priced and works well.

Handbag Must-Have!

After witnessing a lovely gentleman urinating on an ATM during a night out in town I realised how there really is no way of knowing what has been on any of the things I commonly use! I usually do have a hand sanitiser in my bag but I realised I'd been slacking on refilling the little bottles and after what I'd seen, I knew I needed to make sure I got more on my next grocery shop! Dettol happened to be on special so I grabbed a couple of bottles and got busy stashing little bottles around anywhere I might need them. So far the product hasn't been too drying on my hands, the scent isn't terrible- just the same as pretty much any sanitiser I've used and I've felt a lot better about using ATMs since... ish.

Tips: Refill little travel size bottle to stash in handbags, cars and anywhere else you might need it

So fresh and so clean

I use a lot of hand sanitiser at work (hospital), and this is the hand sanitiser I use when I'm out and about! I keep the small one (50ml) in my handbag, so I have always got access to clean hands when I need them!

Tips: I like to clean my steering wheel in my car with this, just squirt a little bit on a tissue and wipe the wheel! Then I know it's hygienic!

Perfect!

I always have a large bottle of this at home, and a smaller travel sized bottle in my hand bag, it is fantastic for when you out and about and cannot wash your hands.

I suffer from palmers hyperhidrosis (meaning my hands are often sweaty/moist) and this has been something that has affected my whole life. It causes a whole lot of stress and anxiety when I am around people, or when I have to fill out forms, or even when driving if it gets really bad. Dettol hand sanitizer offers a short temporary relief and drys my hands up even if only for a few minutes which allows me to fill out paper work without smudging ink or wetting the paper, and shake hands without being anxious. I have found nothing else that works for my hands, even if this is only a very short temporary relief, it makes my life easier.

It does not work EVERY time for me, as sometimes my hands are just to bad on the day, but I am still thankful to have it. :)

Tips: Always keep a travel sized bottle in your handbag, it comes in handy :)

I'm surprised !

I am a hand sanitizer queen, I guess it comes with my day job to keep using hand sanitizer maybe 50 times a day(no joke) anyway I have tried plenty of sanitizers especially the bath and body scented hand sanitizers which I love! However when I went to Australia few days ago, I ran out of my bath and body hand sanitizer so decided to get this dettol sanitizer just the small compact handy size! And I found it very soft! Mine did have the aloe Vera in it which was amazing! After I apply, I felt my hands very soft and refreshed! I don't even need lotion to put after. It did not dry my hands out or cause me any irritation! The texture is also very smooth like aloe Vera gel! The smell can be a bit strong like alcohol but that's understandable because of the alcoholic properties. The small size is so handy and compact and very easy to use. The price was also rational.

Tips: Just put a small amount and enjoy your clean soft hands

Antibacterial but Drying

I was a fan of antibacterial handwash and sanitizers, until my hands got dry from using this to often. On the pros it's cheap, handy, easy to keep in your purse, doesn't feel sticky after you use it. However, my hands are already dry and sensitive and despite the claims that this moisturizes it didn't for me. A good hand sanitizer but just not the one for me and I wouldn't repurchase unless there's nothing better than this on the market.

Tips: Use only a little and if you are prone to dry hands but need to remove all the bacteria, due to sicknesses, etc. then try to rinse it off with water as that helps your hand not dry out as much and follow up with a hand cream or lotion.

Convenient Hand Cleaning

I have purchased both the large size bottle and the convenient small size which is perfect for having in your handbag or for travel. Whilst it is great to have this waterless option for sanitising hands which was indeed refreshing and absorbed easily, I found that after using it for awhile my hands and nails became very dry and I had to keep applying more and more moisturiser to counter balance the effects. Eventually I had to stop using the Dettol Healthy Touch Hand Sanitiser Instant Refresh and focus on restoring my hands and nails with moisturiser. I probably won't buy this product again.

A must have in every bag/purse

I love this sanitiser, I use a large bottle for the kitchen & bathroom and always have a mini in my handbag!It is slightly strong smelling but not as strong/chemical smelling as some of the others on the market, I quite like the smell as it smells 'clean'. It dries fairly quickly and doesn't dry my hands like some others I have tried.This isn't always the cheapest on the market so best to purchase when it is on sale.

Tips: Purchase when on sale

Dettol

Ahhhhh the old dettol hand sanitiser! this takes me back to when i was youngster. Its been a round for so many years now! Best smelling sanitiser in my opinion. It is super fast drying and doesn't leave your hands feeling dry. 100% recommend to anyone that wants to try this! it is a little more on the pricey side but i think it's worth the money.
