Due to the onset of CoronaVirus, personal hygiene is paid special attention. This means there has been a huge demand for sanitation material and equipment. Hand Sanitizer is one of the most important things used for personal sanitization. Since it is easy to carry around and offers instant protection, its an instant hit. 
Pouring a few drops of hand sanitizer and it effectively kills 99% of germs and infectious bacteria. However, due to the surge in demand for hand sanitizers, they are not so easily available in the medical stores. Even if you are able to procure one, it either may be costly or could be counterfeit.

Why make Hand Sanitizer at home?

 Leading hand sanitizers are alcohol-based which leaves your hand dry and rough. Repeated use can make your hands lose natural moisture eventually dry skin which may peel off. Apart from that these products are not suitable for children under the age of 5. Accidentally if they lick it this can cause stomach ache and vomits.
If you happen to touch your eyes immediately after sanitizer application chance are you can catch an eye infection. Alcohol itself is flammable in nature which means the alcohol-based hand sanitizers become a flammable product.
