hand sanitizers
Portable hygiene solution
Hand sanitizers are alcohol-based gels or liquids used to kill germs on the hands when soap and water aren't available.
They became ubiquitous during the COVID-19 pandemic, appearing at store entrances, office buildings, and in pockets and purses: There's hand sanitizer by the door.
Less effective against visible dirt than actual washing.
