GERM-X Review

There is no better feeling in the world than scrubbin' my hands down clean after I touch something disgusting. But when I'm feeling unclean, does Germ-X hand sanitizer wash away the germs? In this product review, Germ-X hand sanitizer will be put to the test to see if it is a quality product.

​

The Germ-X brand of hand sanitizer comes from the company known as Vi-Jon Laboratories. The company is located in St. Louis. Vi-Jon Laboratories primarily focuses on producing hand sanitizer for consumer purchase in stores. The company also makes other products, such as petroleum jelly.

​

Hand sanitizer is a product made to eliminate infectious entities, such as germs on the hands. These cleaning products are used all across the health industry to quickly and safely sterilize hands. Most sanitizers contain 60-90% alcohol. Hand sanitizers are mostly effective on problems such as germs, and are made mostly to kill the micro-organisms.

​

From accidental experience, hand sanitizer has a very unpleasant taste. It is a very bitter substance and is much stronger tasting than soap. It is strongly recommenced to NOT ingest hand sanitizer, so I will not be able to conduct the "Three T's" test for my blog.

​

Hand sanitizers are big fanatics of fire, so make sure to keep them away from combustion or else they will ignite. I would not recommend handling products with a fire hazard immediately after using hand sanitizer.

​

One concern overall about hand sanitizers is that they only kill 99.9% of germs. The 0.1% of germ that survives goes on to make more of itself and then we are left with unkillable diseases. That sounds fun.

​

Due to recent events, hand sanitizers can be pretty hard to come by. I hope you stocked up. This temporary increase in sales for the hand sanitizer might seem good for the companies now, but later nobody is going to be buying any because they have 20 bottles in their houses.

​

To apply hand sanitizers, first you must prepare the bottle. First, take the liquid into the palm of your hands. It is preferable to have about 2 peas worth of sanitizer. Second, rub your hands together, making sure to get every spot of your hands. Third, enjoy yourself because your hands are now sterile.

​

Overall, Germ-x is a good hand sanitizer to purchase if you are in the mood to disinfect your hands. It is a always a cool feeling liquid. The smell is not unpleasant when compared to other sanitizers. It is a quality product and a single bottle will last you a while.
