With our advanced MicroSperse® Technology, you don’t have to choose between sanitization and skin health.
Understanding Hand Sanitizers
Current hand sanitizers, whether alcohol-based or alcohol-free, have significant drawbacks. Alcohol-based products are effective but damaging to the skin’s natural moisture barrier, while alcohol-free alternatives can be harmful and disruptive to the skin’s native microbiome. This creates a clear need for a new approach that mitigates these issues without compromising antimicrobial efficacy.
Skin Hydration Study Overview
A Skin Hydration study was performed to assess and compare the relative moisturization potential of Caring Hands® hand sanitizer with varying levels of skin moisturizing ingredients to a market-leading competitive hand sanitizer. The secondary objective of the Skin Hydration study was to determine the effect of hand sanitizers on visual skin dryness. The study involved 18 female participants aged 18-55. Evaluations for dryness and skin hydration were conducted at baseline and at 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours post-application using the Corneometer and Skicon 200. The visual evaluator was blinded to the product randomization to ensure unbiased results. Images were captured at baseline and at 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours post-application using a Visioscan for comparison.
The results demonstrated that the Caring Hands® hand sanitizer (100%) significantly increased skin hydration more than all other treatments. Caring Hands® hand sanitizer with reduced moisturizer content (50% and 75%) were also more moisturizing than the competitive hand sanitizer and untreated sites. Overall, Caring Hands® outperformed the competition, highlighting superior efficacy in enhancing skin hydration.
Skin Hydration - Visual Dryness
The visual results demonstrated that the Caring Hands® hand sanitizer (100%) and Caring Hands® hand sanitizer with 50% moisturizers reduced improved visual dryness and were significantly better than all other treatments. Caring Hands® hand sanitizer with 75% moisturizers reduced was the next best at improving visual dryness and was significantly better than the competitive hand sanitizer and untre
