Before You Buy a Sanitizer

This shelf is for anyone who wants a simple way to keep hands and everyday surfaces clean at home, at work or on the go. Options in this section include liquid alcohol, hand sanitizer gels and adult wet wipes, and they differ in form, alcohol concentration, bottle size and how gentle they feel on skin. Currently available: Afak 70% ethyl alcohol, 120 ml, for 28 EGP.

How to choose

  • Check the alcohol percentage on the label; 70% ethyl alcohol is a common choice for daily hygiene.
  • Liquid alcohol suits hands and surfaces; gels and wipes are easier to carry around.
  • A small 120 ml bottle fits a bag and is budget-friendly for a first try.
  • Dry or sensitive skin? Moisturize afterwards, or ask the pharmacist about gentler options.
  • Using it on children or on wounds? Ask the pharmacist first.

Frequently asked questions

Is 70% alcohol better than higher concentrations?

70% ethyl alcohol is widely used for hygiene, and its water content helps it stay on a surface a little longer before evaporating. A higher percentage isn't automatically better. Follow the directions on the label, and if you're unsure what suits your use, ask the pharmacist.

Can I use it on both hands and surfaces?

The Afak label mentions daily hygiene and surface cleaning support. You can apply it to hands or wipe door handles and countertops with it. Test it first on a small area of screens or coated finishes, as alcohol may damage some of them. If hands are visibly dirty, soap and water are the better choice.

Will alcohol dry out my skin?

Frequent use may leave skin dry or irritated, especially in winter or on sensitive skin. Applying a moisturizer afterwards can help, and avoid using it on cut or inflamed skin. If redness or itching continues, stop using it and ask the pharmacist about a suitable alternative.

Is it safe in a home with children?

Keep the bottle out of children's reach: alcohol is flammable and must never be swallowed. Store it away from flames and heat, and don't let children use it unsupervised. For products suited to cleaning young children's hands specifically, ask the pharmacist before using anything.

How is the order delivered and paid for?

You can pay cash on delivery, and orders usually arrive within 12 to 72 hours depending on your area. Once it arrives, keep the bottle tightly closed and upright, away from sunlight and heat, to protect product quality and reduce evaporation.
