 ABSTRACT

The researcher’s main purpose in conducting this study is to help create a product
which is cheaper and could use the same quality as the one through the use of Aloe
Barbadensis. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of Aloe Barbadensis
as an additional ingredient to homemade hand sanitizers. It also helps the
researcher determine the similarities and differences of the two products have by
comparing their qualities. The procedure in making this product is simple. Put 2
liters of water in a container, then put preservatives and mix it for 30 seconds.
Then you Put alcohol and mix slowly with your spoon or whisk to ensure that the
alcohol is evenly distributed throughout the product. Afterwards we stir in five
drops of an essential oil, if you're using it. This is entirely optional and is only
meant to improve the scent of the sanitizer. Then put colorant (as desire to how
light or dark you like). Then mix it. Then we put the neutralizer little by little mix
it slowly for 1 minute then wait for 10 minutes before you put into desired bottle or
packaging. Then we apply the aloe vera hand sanitizer to a leaf and apply normal
store bought hand sanitizer to a leaf and compare the two and see which one stay
moisturized the longest.
