Pros

    Really clean hands, Prevents spreading of germs

 Having owned a restaurant and been a caregiver, I can't live without hand sanitizers.  Germ-X is a product that I keep in the house, and have the little 2 ounce size for my pocket book.

It states on the bottle that it kills 99.99% of germs, and that is important to me.

 How to use Germ-X

I am fanatical about washing my hands, and washing them for 30 seconds in hot water, with soap.  However, there are occasions when this is just not possible.  When this happens I grab my clear, plastic bottle of Germ-X.  All you do is flip the top of the cap, and then tilt the bottle, so that some of the clear liquid flows out of the hole in the top.  Always remember to replace the cap on the bottle.

Then rub your hands together, so that the Germ-X will dry on your hands and you know that they are clean and 99.99% germ free.

 Why I use it

The most important time for me to use Germ-X is in church.  I really don't like it when you have to shake everyone's hand to welcome them.  After church we have coffee and sometimes cake.  If I didn't have my little bottle with me, I would be leaving without refreshments.

What Germ-X say about their product

Adults and children over the age of 6 can use it, but it is not recommended for infants.
"Germ-X waterless hand sanitizers kill 99.99% of germs. Hand sanitizers are being used to reduce bacteria and infection at hospitals, health facilities, schools, and businesses throughout the country. With the increase of flu everywhere it makes sense to use this 62% alcohol based product on your hands, especially when soap and water are unavailable. They are dermatologist tested and have no triclosan."

Final thoughts

Germ-X comes in a variety of sizes, including pump action bottles and travel size.  You can also get it in wipes.  For more information go to  http://www.germx.com/ or telephone 1-866-MY-GERMX.  This is a keeper for me.

Great review. I've not heard of this brand but it sounds like one I should check out :) I too think it's so germy to shake hands in church - especially when the person behind you just finished sneezing and the person in front is coughing up a storm. As you can guess, I don't drink the wine either :-D
