The clever thing about this sanitiser is that repeated use enables the product to build up a protective microbial barrier on your skin, thus minimising cross infection risk. SOS Protect costs £15.00 for a 300ml bottle, and features built in moisturising properties for the ultimate skin protection, so that repeated applications do not dry or adversely affect the skin.

SOS protect is actually recommended for repeated use, and kills up to 99% of bacteria, leaving hands fresh, moisturised and protected, even with prolonged use. It is also a Benzalkonium Chloride-based hand sanitiser, which has several distinct advantages over alcohol-based hand sanitisers:

• Alcohol-based hand sanitisers stop working the instant they dry & studies show that alcohol- based hand sanitisers offer no residual protection.

• SOS Protect dries fast but slightly slower than alcohol-based hand sanitisers allowing more than the minimum contact time for complete efficacious coverage & delivers up to 3 hours of
residual protection.

• Benzalkonium Chloride-based hand sanitisers have a greater sustained antibacterial activity than alcohol-based ones.

• They become more effective without irritation after repeated use.

SOS is also Vegan and cruelty free, and made in the UK without parabens, SLS or mineral oil or fragrance.
