Washing your hands with soap is an important and common part of personal hygiene. However, sometimes ordinary soap is not enough to protect your health from infectious diseases. Ukrainian brand Dr. Sante has created a collection of liquid and bar soaps with pronounced antibacterial properties, specifically designed to provide reliable protection against pathogenic microbes and take gentle care of the skin of your hands.
There is a huge number of various microorganisms on the surface of your hands at any given time. Some of them are completely harmless, and some are even beneficial because they are a part of the skin’s natural barrier designed to protect it from various environmental factors.
Unfortunately, some of the bacteria, fungi and viruses present on the skin of your hands are potentially or outright pathogenic. If ingested, they can cause various infectious diseases. Various organic impurities mixed with skin oil are an excellent growth medium for pathogenic flora, so unwashed hands are basically a Petri dish.
This is why washing your hands with soap is so important; by removing dirt and excess sebum (skin oil) from the surface of your hands, soap also removes pathogenic microbes. However, things are not so simple as they might seem, because in some situations, ordinary soap may be not effective enough in the fight against pathogens.
But what exactly situations are we talking about? First of all, we mean public places with lots of people and large gatherings, which require enhanced antimicrobial protection. In addition, ordinary soap may be not enough in medical facilities and social services, especially those catering to immunocompromised individuals.
In such cases, special antibacterial soap is more preferable. Although today there are heated debates concerning the benefits and drawbacks of antibacterial soap, it should be recognized that sometimes you really can’t do without it. Of course, it is important to choose the right soap, paying special attention to its ingredients.
The thing is, many antibacterial soaps are formulated with triclosan, which is one of the most widely used broad-spectrum antibacterial and antifungal agents. Since it was developed in the 1960s, it has become a common ingredient in various consumer products, including soaps and toothpastes. However, scientists have found oud that triclosan contributes to antimicrobial resistance and is linked to a number of health concerns. Because of this, antibacterial soap with triclosan is not recommended in some countries and outright banned in others.
Ukrainian beauty brand Dr. Sante has created a collection of triclosan- and triclocarban-free antibacterial soaps that are formulated with other antibacterial agents, which are considered to be safer than triclosan. Their key active ingredient is hydroxydichlorodiphenyl ether, a highly active antimicrobial agent with a long-lasting effect that easily eliminates gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, viruses and fungi.
Hydroxydichlorodiphenyl ether is safe for adults and children, as well as for the environment. Its antibacterial effect is complemented by various natural ingredients, such as aloe vera leaf juice, tea tree essential oil and lavender extract. They are widely known for their bactericidal and anti-inflammatory properties. They also take good care of the skin, protecting it from dryness, redness and flaking, and preventing itching and discomfort.
Antibacterial bar and liquid soaps produced by Dr. Sante ensure good hand hygiene and antibacterial protection. Their formulas are so mild and delicate that these soaps can be used every day. They will certainly come in handy in your everyday life, for example, after using public transport or visiting crowded places, after contacting infected people or touching dirty or infected surfaces, etc.
In addition, Dr. Sante antibacterial soaps can be useful in various medical facilities and social welfare institutions (nursing homes, group homes for people with disabilities, hospices), cafes and restaurants, shopping malls, cinemas, etc.
