3/4 cup 95% grain alcohol

1/4 cup Aloe Vera gel (not juice)

You can add more glycerin but might make your hands feel sticky,

Sanitizing wipes

Cottony textured paper towels or clean rags

Large container (like a large mason jar)

3/4 cup 95% grain alcohol

1/4 cup boiled distilled water

A few drops Essential oil of choice

We pulled off a bunch of paper towels and layered them into the mason jar (not too stuffed or you might have trouble getting them out to use)

Mix ingredients and add to jar

Shake jar to evenly distribute

Be careful as alcohol and/or the essential oils can damage some surfaces

If using rags make sure they don’t leak dye in the solution

Do not use bleach as it loses effectiveness is about 24 hours when mixed with water

Essential oil safety

We used lavender, bergamot, a thieves oil like blend, and eucalyptus

Citrus oils are photo sensitizing and may make you burn in the sun

Do not get the oils undiluted on your skin if you do wash your hands ASAP
