Sugarcane alcohol is a powerful yet gentle disinfectant. It kills 99.9% of bacteria on the skin and is fast-drying. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends using alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol for controlling the spread of infection and sickness when hand-washing is not an option. Sugarcane alcohol naturally fights door-causing bacteria, including bacteria found under the arms. Its astringent properties help tone the skin and reduce pore size.
