Advantages: Kills germs

Disadvantages: None

When you have young children then there is need for a little bottle of this stuff when you are out and about. I have a thing about keeping my hands clean so if I do a quick nappy change on a park bench somewhere or Noah comes running up to me with what looks like bird poo on his finger, then this bottle comes out of the bag to kill any germs that could be lurking anywhere.

This 100ml bottle cost me around the £1.50 mark from Sainsburys and claims to kill 99.9% of bacteria. It states that it's a fast drying product and that you get over 100 applications per bottle.

I wouldn't normally pay for something this expensive but the fact that I get quite a lot of applications per bottle then that makes it worth it.

The product is easy to use in that you just squirt a drop or two onto the palm of your hands and rub it in. I tend to use a fair bit to cover both the front and backs of my hands and I like to get in between my fingers too.

The product has a bit of a funny smell to it and reminds me of the alcohol rubs that they have in hospitals, of course this is pretty much the same thing as that so that would be why! The smell doesn't last long and to be honest I wouldn't mind if it did because it reminds me of the fact that my hands are nice and clean.

As far as the 'sensitive' part in the title goes, I can really comment on that because my hands are a mess anyway. I haven't noticed any rashes on any of the family due to using it regularly so I suppose that's a good thing.

The bottle is small so I find it fits in my bag and even in my pocket if I don't bother with a bag. It's a very convenient little product and I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes to have clean hands!

Summary: Good on germs and good for your bag!
