The natural version of a hand sanitizer. But I can’t legally call it a hand sanitizer. So we are calling it “KleenHandz” until we find a different name.

It’s so easy you could really make it yourself. We’ve taken the ingredients of our MERCY Treatment Gel, a leave-on aloe based gel, containing Lavender and Tea Tree oils in a precise dilution proven, in the lab, to kill MRSA bacteria. To that we have added a generous portion of our Ravintsara, to keep the gel gentle enough for children. We’re packaging it in a 4 ounce cobalt bottle with a lotion pump, for ease of use, and a one ounce purse-sized bottle to carry with you. We recommend applying (like hand cream) two or three times a day.

The gel absorbs quickly, leaving the hands soft. The aroma is brisk and a trifle medicinal, with a lingering scent reminiscent of Eucalyptus (from the 1.8-cineole in the Ravintsara). I suspect inhaling it as I sit here typing is doing wonderful things for my immune system.
