HOW TO MAKE HAND SANITIZER + How to Make ALOE VERA GEL from Scratch | DIY HAND SANITIZER

[@KaylaJChandler]

UPDATE: With the measurements I stated in the video, you should use a 91% or stronger alcohol solution to be effective (I mistakenly said/showed 70%). Thx for your comments!

[@604Jimmy]

Thanks you for the update! Not only did you say 70% you showed the 70% v/v isopropyl alcohol bottle at 2:10. People's health is at risk! 😍

[@riordanbutler8732]

Have you had any trouble with the gel and the alcohol separating?

[@LuciferMorningstar-og8it]

Can you use any type of aloe vera

[@KaylaJChandler]

Riordan Butler I have not but if it’s been over a week since I’ve used it, I’ll shake it up anyway.

[@sattyaprakashanandswami1627]

Today only I harvested aloe vera from my farm and made juice. Tomorrow I will definitely make this sanitizer. 🙏🙇‍♂️🙏...thanks again.

[@KaylaJChandler]

I hope this video is helpful for y’all! I wanted to also show you how to make homemade Aloe Vera Gel because most of the DIY Hand Sanitizer videos on KZbin were using store bought aloe vera gel, which is now being sold out in stores and online plus its MUCH cheaper to make your own... Stay safe everyone!💖💖💖

[@trishameloling2367]

Kayla Chandler what would the measurements be if we used aloe vera from a bottle?

[@rosequiroz3012]

I made something like this. Why did my aloe vera go dark after the second day. Then it STUNK!!

[@theresahorton2686]

Kayla Chandler where did you get the oil from

[@crisalidathomassie1811]

You need to soak the aloe Vera leaf overnight in water to remove toxins. After soaking the leave overnight the water will be brown. Discard the water and soak the leave again until the water comes out clear. About two hours.

[@elitedude4089]

Kayla Chandler this is wrong information

[@thetonycam3944]

Nice work! I'm thinking of doing this too though stores in my area don't carry aloe 😭. May I humbly suggest that you use 90%(or more) isopropyl alcohol because if you add the aloe and essential oils it will dilute the alcohol further down to less than 60% ,the effective alcohol ratio to break up bacteria and viruses. Or maybe use less aloe and essential oils to keep the alcohol concentration at or above 60%. Can't wait for your other concoctions!

[@avismoon]

Why I like this video- 1. It's the first video which actually has the right amount of alcohol. 2. You showed how to make aloe vera gel too!

[@raiderob67]

Wrong %

[@avismoon]

@@raiderob67 Yes, she corrected it in the comment.

[@sanman187-]

This is the best (I've watched several) - just remember, USE 91% ISOPROPYL (OR DENATURED ETHYL) ALCOHOL (not 70%). Excellent video, simple and easy to follow directions, excellent result!!

[@KaylaJChandler]

Tysm!

[@drkatel]

Was searching for a BRIEF how-to video to recommend to people, but many were over 10 minutes long. I was even tempted to make my own video, but the KZbin algorithm wouldn't have suggested it so it wouldn't have helped anyone. Anyway, *THANK YOU* for posting this important info! (Also, thanks for correcting the % alcohol needed.) Stay healthy everyone!

[@KaylaJChandler]

I'm glad you found it helpful :)

[@Jessica-fb1px]

THE ALCOHOL PERCENT NEEDS TO BE 91% AT LEAST to get you to 60% alcohol. I know you have a lot of views but it's unlikely people will be looking in the comments during panic mode. I would put a comment/disclaimer window on your video & in the title so people read that first and aren't running around with a 50% solution and spreading germs.

[@rebeccac7670]

Lots of people read the comments .I do it for every video I watch because I want to know other peoples suggestions and feelings

[@tammy5926]

You rock making your own aloe vera gel! 🌱 This video was very helpful! 💕

[@billsoukup7085]

This is great advice. When processing the aloe get yourself, you need to avoid the aloin (thought to be carcinogenic or allergen). A safe bet for those who don't want to process their own is to find a cosmeceutical grade aloe like the 10X-D.

[@anaaamyraa]

Been looking for a video that shows how to make aloe Vera gel since I haven’t had lucky finding any but have a plant at home! Definitely will be following your steps to make my own. Quick question; How long will this diy hand sanitizer stay good for?

[@KaylaJChandler]

Mine have always lasted about 6 months at room temp and up to 12 months in the fridge

[@604Jimmy]

⚠️ If you use 70% isopropyl alcohol... using your recipe the end product is 47% alcohol by volume. Please inform your viewers of this potential risk.

[@ginatse12]

Correct using 70 % alcohol should be only adding less than 1/4 cup of aloe or glycerin her 1/3 aloe formulation is for alcohol 91,95,99 % .

[@anonemoose1695]

I see these miscalculations everywhere on KZbin. It’s quite alarming

[@elizabethroblyn1392]

@@ginatse12 so my isopropyl rubbing alcohol 90%, I hve to use what ratios? Thank you

[@ginatse12]

@@elizabethroblyn1392 hi ! 90 % you can do 1/3 aloe vera or glycerin and 2/3 90 % alcohol . I do half aloe and half glycerin in the 1/3 mixture it feels better on hands .

[@conishkee]

11-27-20: I love the idea of this recipe, but if you want to add a little something extra, especially for those with dry skin like me, try adding some Vitamin E oil.

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@crisalidathomassie1811]

Thanks for the recipe. I will try it.

[@GoregeousLuna]

I believe the final concentration for this recipe would be around 48% alcohol. You'd want the final concentration of 60-95% alcohol. Here's a informative video on making your own hand sanitizer and the science behind it. Michelle has a Phd in chemistry even made a spreadsheet that you can use to insert a recipe. Lab Muffin Beauty Science: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYfZpXlrqrSLabM

[@GabrieLight]

or here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnnUhJKGh7yXnbM

[@lylewalker5681]

Furthering on this point, the higher the alcohol content past 60%, the quicker it dissolves on your hands... which is not good for killing germs. You want it to be wet on your hands and take time dissolving, so getting it as close to 60 is perfect... maybe a little over, obviously, rather than under.

[@donbsea]

Use either 91% or 99% isopropyl rubbing alcohol, found at most chain drugstores. Less than 91% alcohol, and you do NOT have a hand gel that is actually a disinfectant against this virus.

[@adaaguilar6916]

Short and sweet video, thank you!

[@chelle315]

I use juice vs the gel and just make a spray. Good tutorial.

[@limonhi33]

i tried it it was soo easy and Cheep thank you!☺️

[@possum297]

You used 70 % alcohol then mixed it at a ratio of 2 to 1. This has now made you total ABV aprox 46 %. Sanitiser need to be above 60% to work. This will NOT work. You need to use a higher % alcohol before you dilute it with aloe

How long will this gel last being that it does not have any preservatives? I like this tutorial and plan to make some of my own.

[@mariewestley4673]

Aloe vera is supposed to be refrigerated. Is it the alcohol that preserves it in this recipe? How long is the shelf life? Does anyone know a way to use an essential oil such as thyme in place of the alcohol without the aloe vera going bad?

[@Lanibluv]

can aloe gel be substituted for aloe juice, if that's all you have available?

[@KaylaJChandler]

I tried it with the aloe juice and it won't yield the gel-like texture for a hand sanitizer. However, you can put it in a spray bottle and spray in onto your hands.

All I have is a bottle of 50% rubbing alcohol, is that useless or is there a way for me to use it as some sort of rubbing sanitizer ?

[@stephaniemccusker8414]

Must be at least 60, my friend.

[@lylewalker5681]

If it's that or nothing, I think it wouldn't hurt to use it over nothing. But you wanna get something that lets you have 60%.

Wil this still work if the alcohol I use is only 50%

[@Tessa-mv4fj]

Lola Rosales no it will not kill any germs or bacteria on your hands

[@Tessa-mv4fj]

91% is the lowest you should go. Once you mix it with aloe, the percentage goes down to around 70% so you’re already losing some. If you use 50% you might as well just wash your hands because it will do nothing for you besides dry them out

[@KaylaJChandler]

if you can find store bought aloe gel, then that's fine... but I tried it with the store bought aloe juice and it was too thin. The aloe juice could work as a spray sanitizer but if you want that gel-like texture, you need to use either store bought aloe gel or homemade gel. Hope this helps!
