Books won&#8217;t burn too big a hole in my pocket, and WH Smith at Heathrow has some awesome chocolate deals! \ud83d\ude00 I bought giant bars of Toblerone chocolate home for a friend who asked for it. \ud83d\ude00 Something like 3 giant bars you could use for self-defense for \u00a39!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6407\" title=\"quash\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash.jpg\" alt=\"review quash natural hand sanitizer\" width=\"530\" height=\"424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash.jpg 530w, https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash-300x240.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One of the things I spotted in the racks was the <strong>Quash hand sanitizer<\/strong>. It stood out because its tall and its green. But I didn&#8217;t think much of it then. So later, when the people at Quash asked if I might want to try a sample, I remembered that green spray bottle and I said yes.<\/p>\n<p>This is it &#8211; the Quash Moisturising Hand Sanitizer.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t use hand sanitizers a lot unless I&#8217;m travelling. I use them on the go because you just never know where you might be able to find clean running water to wash your hands. But I don&#8217;t use them a lot outside of travel because I dislike the drying effect on my hands. The skin on my hands peel quite easily and its awful. Also, have you really had a nice smelling hand sanitizer? One that does not smell of alcohol or synthetic perfume?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6408\" title=\"quash2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash2.jpg\" alt=\"quash natural moisturising hand sanitizer review\" width=\"530\" height=\"377\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash2.jpg 530w, https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash2-300x213.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Happily, the Quash natural hand sanitizer smells of lovely citrus. It does not contain alcohol so there is no sharp smell you associate with alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>This hand sanitizer comes in a spritz bottle, and it spritzes out a fine mist on your hands. On the website, they tell you to spritz twice for peace of mind, as the 100% natural ingredients will kill germs while moisturizing your hands.<\/p>\n<p>Truly, I like the lovely fresh citrus scent, and I like the fact that its non drying to my skin. My hands actually feel quite moisturised, and I sometimes spritz it for fun, throughout the day at the office, because our hands do pick up germs from things like the computer keyboard, doorknobs, washrooms, papers etc.<\/p>\n<p>It does take a little while longer to dry compared to regular gel types but its not a bother, because your hands aren&#8217;t sopping wet.<\/p>\n<div class=\"highlight\">\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong> Lovely natural citrus scent, Not drying on skin<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong> Available online only for us here in Malaysia<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Here are the ingredients in Quash:-<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6406\" title=\"quash3\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash3.jpg\" alt=\"quash natural hand sanitizer ingredients\" width=\"530\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash3.jpg 530w, https:\/\/www.mywomenstuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/quash3-300x114.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d say that if your hands are sensitive to alcohol, or you use hand sanitizers a lot, a natural option might be a good idea. Granted, its pricier than regular alcohol based sanitizers available locally, and only available online for us living here in Malaysia, but I think its good nonetheless, simply because it does not cause my hands to peel! Perhaps this way I&#8217;d actually sanitize my hands more and keep those horrid flu germs away! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>Paris B<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\">Quash natural moisturizing hand sanitizer retails online for \u00a33.49\/50ml and \u00a31.99\/15ml. I was told that shipping is still 50p each even internationally, and there is free delivery for 5 bottles and up and payment is by Paypal.
