Coronavirus has become a serious problem not only for the President of the United States, but also for millions of people who are currently living in fear of catching this virus, which has proven to be one of the worst in history. So we have to do everything necessary to stay healthy and protected in this situation. One of the most popular tips at the moment is to wash your hands constantly either with water, with which you have to do it for about 20 seconds - or with an antibacterial gel that many of us carry in our bags.

Now, with the chaos that has formed finding disinfectant gel or any other cleaning product, it has become an impossible mission. That is why many have resorted to preparing their own soap and the truth is an excellent option. See below how easy it is to do.

You only need isopropyl alcohol, something you can find in any pharmacy and it is the most efficient way to keep your hands completely disinfected. You also need aloe vera, which serves to protect the hands since alcohol can mistreat them and is also a good preservative, and tea tree essential oil, one of the only antibacterial, antimicrobial and antiviral oils that can be put directly on the skin. If you want you can add two or three drops of some other aromatic oil so that it smells to your liking. Lavender essential oil, in addition to smelling rich, also has antibacterial properties.

Put the alcohol in a cup and add a quarter cup of aloe vera, as well as 10 drops of lavender oil and another 10 drops of tea tree oil. If you use any other oil, it is recommended to only put 2 to 3 drops. You mix everything until the ingredients come together and there is a gelatinous mass. If you prefer that there be more liquid you can add a few more drops of essential oil. Then you put it in a plastic or glass container and make it available to everyone. Don't forget to also fill a small container that you can carry in your wallet.

If you are one of those who could not buy a disinfectant gel, run to the pharmacy to buy these ingredients so that you can make a homemade one for your whole family. Remember that keeping your hands clean is one of the best ways to avoid contagion.
