Cvs Hand Sanitizing Spray For Kids By RachelReviews on - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I may not be a kid anymore, but I use CVS Hand Sanitizing Spray For Kids. My sink takes forever for the water to get hot and after doing bacteria-ridden tasks, like cleaning the litterbox, sometimes I want to feel clean immediately! Since this product does not need water to work, I do not need to wait at the sink, like usual.This spray kills 99.9% of germs immediately. The spray uses benzalkonium chloride 0.13% to kill germs; it is an antimicrobial.

There are seventy-plus sprays per bottle. The bottle is .15 FL OZ. (4.5 mL)

A problem with many hand sanitizers is a drying effect. Not so with this CVS spray. It is alcohol-free. There are some moisturizing ingredients in the spray like Aloe Vera and Glycerin. I did feel like my hands felt soft, not parched, after using the spray.

The fragrance is supposed to have a "citrus scent." The packaging has a picture of a lemon, so I thought prior to use, that it would smell like lemons. Yet the smell is an imperceptible, very gentle, sweet, barely lemon scent. I understand since it is for kids, the product should probably not be too overly perfumed.

I like this product. I like the durable, hard plastic, pen-style packaging. You simply take off the cap and there is an atomizer at the top. The only thing I would improve upon is the scent. It's not lemony enough.

No problem. Happy to share :) I've heard that classrooms can be a spawning area for germs, so this should help.

I love the idea of hand sanitizing spray for kids. The container looks really neat. Definitely a plus. Going to have to get this for my daughter to use at her school. Thanks for sharing this.
