6 Beauty Brands Making Hand Sanitizers That Are Great for Your Skin
They’re germ-killing, moisturizing, and in stock (for now).
When it became clear the Covid-19 pandemic wasn’t going away as quickly as it arrived, we began stocking up on essentials and health products like never before. Toilet paper, thermometers, bidets, humidifiers, and hand sanitizer flew off of shelves — many going out of stock indefinitely.
But just when it seemed like the essentials shortage would never let up, citizens and businesses started coming together to create solutions. When face masks sold out across the country, fashion houses and independent seamstresses began manufacturing masks (in lovely styles!) to provide the public with in-stock options. Now we’re seeing the same effort by beauty companies to make and distribute hand sanitizers.
Beauty brands know what they’re doing when it comes to skincare, and they did their homework to ensure these sanitizers were effective at killing germs and moisturizing skin, and that they smell great! Let’s lather up and give these brands a virtual round of applause!
Lather

$18, Lather
Free of parabens, sulfates, synthetic fragrance, artificial color, and mineral oil, this all-vegan hand sanitizer replenishes moisture in dry skin with plant-derived extracts like yucca, green tea, and aloe vera. It has a faint aroma of natural citrus that just smells clean.

CBD Luxe
2-pack, $31.99, CBD Luxe
Cannabidiol, or CBD, is found in some cannabis plants. However, unlike THC (the chemical found in marijuana that produces that plant’s “high”), CBD produces no high or any psychoactive effect.
