    In this video I will be showing you how to make hand sanitizer at home using 3 ingredients!
    NOTE: It is best to use alcohol that is 91% or higher but 70% is what i had on hand and what i used.

      Your intention is great, and it can appear to make sense at a glance.
      Your hand sanitizer will remain 70% consistently because that’s the concentration of the alcohol. You adding more 70% alcohol to the cup doesn’t somehow change the percentage of the alcohol, the actual alcohol percentage it’s self does not change. the percentage of alcohol compared to
      The aloe Vera maybe change but that’s doesn’t change alcohols percentage.

      @unknownconstant7509 4 роки тому +7

      @@SouthernBeautie2010 When you add more aloe you reduce the concentration of alcohol if you use a higher percentage alcohol then the amount of aloe can change. to calculate the concentration of alcohol : 1) add the amount of cups of alcohol and aloe. 2) multiply the percentage alcohol by the numbers of cup of alcohol. 3). divide the answer from step 2 by the answer from step one and multiply by 100. This is the percent alcohol of the solution you made, To determine how much of each ingredient to use is harder. it is called a value mixture problem. (amount of cup alcohol x percent of alcohol) + (amount of aloe x percent of alcohol in aloe mix) = (percent alcohol in mix) x(amount alcohol + amount aloe). usually there is 0% alcohol in aloe mix. To solve this problem you need to know the concentration of alcohol in each ingredient and for the mix you want to make and one to the amounts.

    You're actually diluting the alcohol further making it less effective. If you use 1/3 of aloe vera to your 2/3 of alcohol, you're only getting more or less 40% alcohol which doesn't meet the CDC recommended of at least 60% alcohol. This hand sanitizer is less effective. Just use the alcohol straight or start with 99% alcohol, not 70%.

  • @saram5754
    @saram5754 4 роки тому +5

    Just a heads up, this recipe might look and feel nice while being a good consistency, but it does not give you the alcohol concentration that you want to kill things like coronavirus. When people say that you must have at least a 60% alcohol concentration in these types of products, they mean total with ALL ingredients not the alcohol source alone. 70% isopropyl is no longer 70% isopropyl when diluted.
    If you plan on following this recipe, make sure to substitute 91% isopropyl alcohol, and even then the concentration is low. Decrease the aloe proportions. Home made sanitizers that include aloe and alcohol are by nature runny, not gelled like store bought hand sanitizers. The starting concentration of the alcohol base in this recipe was 70%, which means that you cannot add 1 part aloe to 2 parts alcohol if you want to end up with a 60-70% alcohol concentration. If you’re not able to properly measure these products to ensure that you end up with the right amount of alcohol by volume, it’s best to skip the homemade recipes altogether. If you can’t get ahold of hand sanitizer or 91% isopropyl and aloe, just use undiluted 70% isopropyl alcohol or a product that contains at least 60% ethyl alcohol by volume
    It really sucks to see all of these people saying they made this for themselves and their families, knowing that they used a recipe that’s likely not optimally effective.

      WARNING: THIS WON'T WORK. Since she is using only 70% alcohol (the minimum amount that will kill the virus), cutting it any amount will bring it below 70% alcohol and it will not work. When she cuts the 70% alcohol with aloe vera, she is bringing the % down to around 50% and it is no longer effective against the virus. You have to start with 99% alcohol and only add a little aloe vera to keep it above 70% alcohol..

    Great to see how easy this is however I would also add emollient for moisturizing otherwise that can be harsh on the skin without, good solution though 👌

    Hello, does this need to be 70% Isopropyl alcohol? I have a container with 99% which I had bought previously (asking as it looks like buying 70% is also getting hard). Thanks

    • @Healingconsciously444
      @Healingconsciously444 4 роки тому

      The higher the percentage of alcohol the better. The stores no long has 99% concentrations because they can’t-keep up with demands.. I made
      my solution with vitamin c. Came out pretty awesome if you want to check it out.

    • @sterlingsilvyr17
      @sterlingsilvyr17 4 роки тому

      Because you use 70% alcohol. It’s the alcohol that kills the virus. Just like in commercial hand sanitizer. If you DON’T use 70% alcohol, then, it won’t work

    • @rumblefish9
      @rumblefish9 4 роки тому +1

      @@sterlingsilvyr17 But this recipe is wrong. If you follow this recipe, you'll end up with 40%+ alcohol, not the recommended 60% by the CDC. You have to use something higher to start like 99% alcohol so when you add the aloe vera, you have a final product of more than 60%. What she's doing is further diluting an already diluted alcohol.

  • @anniegarza8039
    @anniegarza8039 4 роки тому

    For people who can't find aloe vera gel go to your local Mexican grocery and by a leaf/stalk of the actual plant. I got two long ones at .88 cents each. Slice it open and scrape to remove the gel. It will come out in chunks. Blend it in a blender or nutribullet whatever you have and wait till it settles before using. It will come out frothy when it's first blended. If using 91% alcohol use the 2/3 alcohol to 1/3 aloe vera gel. If you use a lesser percentage you can't use the same recipe because it will dilute your alcohol below the 60% that kills the virus. You have to have a finished product that has a 60% or higher of alcohol to kill the virus. So if you have 70% alcohol just use a tiny amount of the gel. I don't maths. Someone made a suggestion below of the percentage for a alcohol that is 70% at start. Also if you can't find any regular alcohol you can use ethyl alcohol and 151 proof grain liquor which is about 75 % alcohol and just use less aloe vera gel. The alcohol is what kills the virus. The gel is just to keep your hands from severely drying out. Don't dilute further with oils if you don't have to. Antibacterial won't kill the virus. Remember the best thing is to wash your hands frequently and don't touch your face.

    I can find aloe gel, essential oils.....but alcohol is extremely hard to come by in hawaii. Along with toilet paper. Lol. Luckily I scored a bottle of 91% isopropyl alcohol but it took me 2 weeks to find a bottle. The stores are limiting to 1 per household. As fast as it goes on the store shelves it sells out. I was lucky to be at the store when they were stocking it. Within 10min. The entire supply was wiped out.
