Three Ways To Make Sure You’re Washing Your Hands Right Every Time

Washing your hands thoroughly is one of the best ways we can prevent sickness, protecting ourselves and our families. Around 80% of communicable diseases are spread by touch and most of these can be prevented with good hand hygiene. However, despite the increased interest in handwashing over recent years, research suggests that the majority of people still aren’t washing their hands correctly. How can you ensure you’re not missing out on great hand hygiene? The easiest way is to remember the basic rules and adhere to them every time. At Tea Trees Eco Ware, we believe there are three golden rules everyone should follow: 

• Use soap and water: Despite the way that hand sanitiser sales skyrocketed at the beginning of 2020, the most effective method to wash your hands is with good old fashioned soap and water. Hand sanitisers and antibacterial wipes are much less effective at cleaning the entire surface area of your hands, and some struggle to eliminate all types of germs, meaning that after use, you may still be prone to catching certain diseases and infections. Soap and water are much more effective because they break up and remove germs, washing them away down the sink rather than letting them linger on your skin. Using soap and water to uproot germs and rinse them off will help you to get rid of any trace of harmful bacteria, preventing infection every time you wash your hands right. 

• Choose a soap that lathers well: When choosing what soap to use,  make sure to pick one that suds up well and covers the whole surface of your hands. Bacteria is resilient, and it can easily linger if you miss even the smallest spot. Foaming soaps can help you to reach every inch of your hands, from underneath your nails to in between your fingers. When you use a soap that foams well, it will be easier for you to make sure that your hands are well and truly clean, resulting in the best protection possible.

• Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds: When it comes to proper hand hygiene, one thing that most people struggle with is washing their hands for the right amount of time. According to several studies, people tend to have an unrealistic level of optimism when it comes to their own health, leading to many people washing their hands for an insufficient amount of time or even skipping hand washing altogether. However, it’s important to remember that anyone can get sick, especially without proper hygiene, and just because we can’t see harmful bacteria, it doesn’t mean they aren’t there. The World Health Organisation recommends we wash our hands for 20-30 seconds to ensure we’re eliminating as many harmful bacteria as possible. So next time you find yourself washing your hands, remember to count to 20 while you’re doing it. 

Why Foaming Hand Soap Tablets Are Better Than Bar Soap

While soap and water are undoubtedly the best way to wash away harmful germs to prevent many illnesses and promote good hygiene, it’s important to note that soap doesn’t kill these germs. Soap and water do a fantastic job at protecting us from illness, uprooting germs and washing them away. However, unlike liquid soap dispensers, bar soap is open to all kinds of elements and the minute it’s placed back in the soap dish, a mini-ecosystem can begin to form. Many bacteria thrive in moist conditions, and bar soaps sitting in wet soap dishes by the sink create the perfect conditions for a whole range of microorganisms. To prevent this, many people favour liquid hand soaps over bar soaps, but that comes with its own range of environmental issues. Many liquid hand soaps come in disposable dispensers, contributing to way more plastic waste than bar soaps. 

At Tea Trees Eco Ware, we have created the perfect solution. Our eco handwash comes with a reusable, durable soap dispenser that was made to last. On top of that, each handwash tablet weighs just 8 grams, meaning it travels light to ensure a much lower carbon footprint than both bar soap and regular liquid hand soaps. Avoid contributing to environmental damage while also steering clear of soap that has been sitting in dirty water and harbouring bacteria with our FOMO foaming hand soap. 

How Our Foaming Hand Soap Tablets Work 

Because our foaming hand soap looks a little different than the kind you’d normally find, we want to make sure there’s no confusion around how to use them! When your purchase first arrives, you’ll receive a recyclable long-life foaming hand wash bottle and four dissolving eco hand wash refill tablets. Each four-pack of tiny tablets is equivalent to buying four large plastic soap dispensers from the supermarket, meaning you’re instantly saving your time, money, and the environment! To activate your hand wash tablets, simply add 450ml of warm water into your new long-life bottle, pop in a dissolvable hand wash tablet, and wait 15 minutes for it to fully dissolve. After that, you’re done and foaming hand wash goodness awaits! Each tablet makes more than 600 pumps of foam and is wonderfully scented with either coconut or lavender, leaving your hands smelling as clean and fresh as they feel.
