Today we will try to answer this question. What is the best way to protect yourself against coronavirus while keeping your skin healthy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sara Waterman, who is an aesthetician, believes that over time excessively washing hands and using hand sanitisers will deplete the skin\u2019s natural protective barrier. This can then leave hands feeling dry and sore. However, Sara also thinks in times when the excessive risk of infection is present, dry chapped hands are a \u201cbetter\u201d choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main thing all skin experts agree on is that after washing your hands, whether it be with hand sanitiser or with soap water \u2013 it is important to keep skin moisturised. Try switching to a nourishing hand cleansing gel that contains shea butter and is gentler to your skin. NEQI hand cleansing gels will not only kill the bacteria but also protect your hands from becoming overly dry and chapped. It contains 60% alcohol which allows it to kill 99.9% of bacteria. And thanks to the aloe vera and shea butter it take cares of your skin too. It&#8217;s also Vegan!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/neqi-hand-cleansing-gel-with-aloe-vera-and-shea-100ml-c-5010-p-68940\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/NEQI-Social-Image-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Button to buy NEQI Hand Cleansing Gel\" class=\"wp-image-42\" width=\"289\" height=\"289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/NEQI-Social-Image-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/NEQI-Social-Image-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/NEQI-Social-Image-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/NEQI-Social-Image-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/NEQI-Social-Image.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 289px) 100vw, 289px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>So, hand sanitisers will not ruin your skin if used properly. NHS states that \u201cwhile excessive use of hand sanitisers could lead to some drying effects, it is unlikely to negatively impact most people using the gels as a temporary antiseptic\u201d. It is important to use antibacterial gels where water and soap are not available &#8211; a handbag option is a must!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-very-light-gray-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salontrusted.com\/neqi-hand-cleansing-gel-with-aloe-vera-and-shea-100ml-c-5010-p-68940\" style=\"background-color:#38b0c0\">SHOP NOW AT SALON TRUSTED<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWill using hand sanitisers ruin my skin?\u201d \u2013 that is the question we all asked ourselves at least once since COVID-19 became a serious issue.
