One very good reason to wash your hands today

COVID has at least taught us a thing or two about hand washing and sanitising. There are signs in most of the bathrooms and toilets I have been to lately. Hopefully some of this had helped

This is an old short article. I am surprised world hygiene day did not get more exposure this year...

I have always washed my hands well. That was why I was often in the bathroom much longer than others at work. But I do need to care for my skin more because of it.

I wash my hands too frequently though.

I love the smell of Palmolive Antibacterial handwash, but I often buy the Coles generic handwash because it's made in Australia & it's cheap.

I wash them all the time! Every day , all day not OCD, a nurse life!

I wash mine so much, will explain my dry hands, now to apply more cream

With the dreaded flu running rampant right now a good hand washing is even more essential. It's just basic hygiene but not everyone does it.

I'm a stickler for washing hands and hand sanitiser - with young kids its so easy to pass on germs

I'm always conscious of washing my hands properly.

great article

Great article!

you never go wrong with washing your hands

I am always washing my hands so I am doing this already.

I always wash my hands.

Clean hands...prevent sooooo much!

I would wash my hands after clearing rubbish bins, toilet etc, don't want to spread bacteria all over.

I'm using a lovely A'kin handwash with lemon myrtle at the moment. I sometimes use Melrose Organic Liquid Castile Soap.

I am a hand washing fanatic. I have to wash my hands after I finish teaching piano, as goodness knows what infections my students have. I Glen 20 my piano keys too (spray onto a microfiber cloth, then wipe the keys down), as germs can stay on the piano keys for quite a while. I don't want the next student getting sick.

Love foaming hand wash. I wash my hands regularly and wouldn't have it any other way.

It drives me crazy when I see people wash their hands without using soap! Ewwwwww, now you're just pushing the dirt around.

I always wash my hands since I'm a bit of a germaphobe.

Love Dettol such a great brand! I feel a lot of people forget the basics when it comes to hygiene - hand washing I feel is really important especially after shopping and public transport! After the Toilet is a must!

I love the anti-bacterial ones
