Is Karri Hand Sanitiser also a good moisturising agent?
Karri Hand Sanitiser is an aqueous solution and hence is the ultimate moisturiser (adding water to the skin). Alcohol based skin sanitisers remove moisture (and oils) from the skin by dissolving the moisture and causing rapid evaporation. This dries out the skin, promoting cracking and peeling.
Does the use of Karri Hand Sanitiser make the hands appear softer?
Yes. The softness experienced with Karri Hand Sanitiser usage is due to the skin retaining moisture first introduced by the application of Karri Hand Sanitiser and secondly by the AMOSILQ layer lubricating and restricting further loss of moisture from the skin.
