DIY Hand Sanitizer

I don't like hand sanitizer.  It leaves a weird film sometimes, it dries my skin, and I really don't want my body absorbing tons of chemicals.  I prefer good ole non-antibacterial soap under warm water for about thirty seconds.  I know, I know, not the typical mom.  In a pinch I will succumb if I am desperate-- think porta potty.  EEKKK!

Aloe Vera Plants

Here is a recipe for a homemade sanitizer that I do love. Just four simple ingredients.

• Aloe Vera Gel
• Witch Hazel
• Vitamin E Capsule
• Lavender Essential Oil  (I use lemon or peppermint essential oil because the hubs is very sensitive to smells and lavender is a no-no in our house. )
