Earth Mama Organics has launches Lavender Hand Sanitizer.
Formulated according to FDA guidelines, the sanitizer is 80% alcohol, free of methanol and 1-propanol, and contains glycerin to leave hands less dry.
Melinda Olson, founder/CEO, Earth Mama Organics, is an herbalist and former nurse. She says, "Pandemic or not, we know it's best to always wash hands with water and soap for 20 seconds. Hand hygiene works. But sometimes, you can't wait for soap and water. So Earth Mama manufactured a sanitizer that pregnant and breastfeeding women can feel comfortable using—as well as the whole family."
A recent study in Clinical Infectious Diseases showed that SARS CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can stay on the skin for up to 9 hours—but was completely inactivated within 15 seconds of exposure to 80% ethanol.
The new Lavender Hand Sanitizer is packaged in a convenient purse-sized spray bottle.
