Keeping hands clean is essential for reducing and removing germs and bacteria from the skin and products. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers will ensure your hands are clean when you’re on the go and will help the spread of viruses, such as the Covid-19 pandemic.

Here at Manhattan Wardrobe Supplies we offer a variety of hand sanitizers, wipes for make-up brushes, kits, and the like, plus alcohol-Isopropyl for general all-purpose first-aid and industrial cleaner. Below you’ll discover our how-to’s, safety, and more.

How do hand sanitizers work?

Hand sanitizers work by reducing the number of microbes on your hands. In essence, the ethyl or isopropanol alcohol kills the germ cells but doesn’t harm human cells.

Hand sanitizer safety

According to the FDA, hand sanitizer is safe for adults and children if used properly, which means using it externally. It is very important for people to read the ingredients on their hand sanitizer because some hand sanitizers contain methanol, which the FDA has found to cause some health issues, such as skin dehydration or more severe problems if ingested.

It is also very important to ensure that children don’t ingest hand sanitizer. Sometimes hand sanitizer can appeal to children due to a fragrance placed into the sanitizer that entices the children to want to taste it. Ingesting hand sanitizer can lead to serious health issues. Always use hand sanitizer externally on non-sensitive areas of skin.

Health care and skincare

At Manhattan Wardrobe Supply, we have a selection of hand sanitizers that will provide protection against germs and bacteria, such as the coronavirus disease. Many products available are paraben and sulfate-free, and are gentle on the hands.

Sanitizer for makeup brushes

It’s common that makeup brushes are forgotten in the cleaning process. The bacteria in makeup brushes and other cosmetic accessories can be substantial, so regular cleaning is required.

A great way to ensure your theatrical makeup brushes, applicators, and other accessories are safe for use on the skin is to clean them with hand sanitizing wipes or spray. At Manhattan Wardrobe Supply, we have a selection of suitable products, including 99% isopropyl alcohol spray bottles, which is a great disinfectant option for your cosmetic arsenal as well as anything else. 

Hand sanitizer refills

Instead of buying small bottles of hand sanitizer, refill bottles are a great option to ensure you always have it on hand. This is an excellent option for businesses that are using hand sanitizers frequently and require affordable solutions for hand hygiene. Larger bottles and packs are available and can be purchased in bulk buys. 

FDA approved hand sanitizers

When purchasing hand sanitizer, it’s always ideal to watch for FDA approved options, as they are deemed safe for use and adhere to standards such as protection against bacteria, fungus, and viruses. 

Hand care

Hand sanitizers can cause dehydration on the skin, which may lead to cracking and soreness. To combat this, we have a selection of hand care essentials, including hand cream and gentle hand sanitizers with aloe vera to improve your skin’s moisture retention.

Hand cleaner bars

Hand washing is the best way to reduce bacteria and germs on the skin. Our selection of soap bars is a great option to clean your hands and leave you feeling refreshed. Plus, we have heavy-duty soaps to cut through some of the hardest grime and dirt on the skin.

If you’re looking for hand sanitizers for business or home use, Manhattan Wardrobe Supply has a wide selection of effective options to keep hands clean and hygienic.
