I use it to disinfect work surfaces, my phone and the handles of the shopping cart or basket before use. Using it together with AceMD's hand sanitiser, I am assured that my hands are adequately protected from harmful germs. Being alcohol and paraben-free, it is gentle for use on the skin too, which is great when wanting to clean greasy or dirty hands after a meal or when touching unclean things. I love the convenience it presents!
