HIBICLENS Antimicrobial Soap is a Mom’s Best Friend
A mother’s job is never finished. Moms have to be homework helpers, lost-sock-in-the-laundry detectives, pet wranglers and chauffeurs amongst other assumed roles. For all the tasks a mom could have her hands in, why not use a hand soap that can help protect your family against the spread of disease and illness? HIBICLENS® is an antimicrobial hand soap that’s tough on germs yet gentle on skin to provide a long lasting shield of protection against nasty germs.
How HIBICLENS Works
HIBICLENS is a trusted skin cleanser and antiseptic that’s globally used by hospitals and healthcare professionals to help fight the battle against germs and prevent the transmission of various diseases and illnesses. HIBICLENS works effectively to kill germs on contact with its active ingredient Chlorhexidine Gluconate [CHG]. One application of HIBICLENS during a hand washing session protects your skin for up to 24 hours. HIBICLENS is effective, convenient, long lasting and gentle enough for everyday use in the fight against infection.
Why HIBICLENS is Your Go-To Hand Soap
Think of all the germy surfaces you come in contact with everyday – trash cans, doorknobs, toys, shared workspaces. The 2011 Tork® Report states that on average you come in contact with 300 surfaces every 30 minutes with an exposure of up to 840,000 germs. That’s an alarming statistic. That also reminds us that germs are all around us – and not just in the seemingly dirty places.
According to the Minnesota Department of Health, washing your hands with standard antibacterial hand soaps offers no more protection against the spread of germs than washing with a regular bar soap. That seems a little counterproductive.
Stop the spread of germs at the source with HIBICLENS.
HIBICLENS at Home
Regular hand washing is the one of the best ways to remove germs, prevent illness and protect against the spread of disease and illness to others. Every year about 200,000 people are hospitalized with the flu. 10 percent of those admitted to the hospital are children under the age of five (according to the CDC). The battle against infection begins at home. Keep your family healthy with hygiene education and proper hand washing practices. Choose HIBICLENS as your family’s standard for hand soap. We also suggest placing it in the bathroom and kitchen for quick access.
Using HIBICLENS is easy! First, wet your hands or the desired area to be cleaned with warm water. Then, using 5mL (about 1 teaspoon) of HIBICLENS scrub the desired area for 15 seconds under running water. Rinse and dry area(s) thoroughly and that’s all you need to defend your family with up to 24 hours of germ protection.
This world is a germy place. Protect your family as best you can from all that this germy world exposes us to with regular hand washing and daily use of HIBICLENS antimicrobial soap. Visit hibiclens.com for more information and a coupon for $1.00 off your purchase.
Germs are everywhere and I will do anything I can to help keep them out of my house! We have no time to be sick.
Ugh,I feel like germs are absolutely everywhere, especially this time of year! Everyone is sneezing, coughing, and sniffling everywhere we go. Antimicrobial is definitely one good option to help prevent spreading.
This sounds like a great product to help prevent germs. My g’daughter spent the weekend with me, only to find out she woke up Monday with a fever and the doctor confirmed she had strep throat. I didn’t know she was sick but regardless, when school is in, I try to use antimicrobial soap but I was out. I’ll check this one out and have it on hand for my next visit from the grand kids.
After the stomach flu running rampant in my home for 10 DAYS, I will do anything to keep germs away!
I have not heard of HIBICLENS before. I will have to pick some up and try it. There are so many terrible colds going around right now.
This would be super handy in my house! My son is always getting into everything and I’m always concerned about the possible germs.
I adore this stuff, with my messy kids it seems like they’re using it all the time. It’s gotten to the point they just do it now without me saying anything.
I have never heard of this brand before. This sounds like a great one to use to fight germs. I’ll check this out from the store.
I’ve never heard of this stuff before! It sounds great, I will have to check it out! I’m always looking for antimicrobial soaps and have a hard time finding decent stuff!
I need to pack this in my purse and bring it with me. I cannot count the number of times I’ve seen women walk out of the washroom without washing their hands. So gross.
Wow! I need this!! There are way too many germs going around in daycares!
There are so many things that we touch and hold with our hands. Having a cleanser that fights against bacteria and germs is always helpful. Prevention is better than cure!
It can offer 24 hours of germ protection. Now that is a true blessing for sure!
I am constantly washing my hands! it seems like I get sick so easily these days, I am not taking any chances.
I always wondered what kind of soap they use at hospitals. Thanks for letting me know about Hibiclens. I will see if I can give it a try. 🙂
Regular handwashing does work wonders. My son’s kindergarten class had a bathroom with a sink in it and the teacher had them wash often. Loved that practice, esp. when it was in a roomful of kiddos. 🙂
I could use some Hibiclens in my house. I am forever washing my hands as I have a small toddler in tow.
Ahhh if only we could get through a spring or summer without someone falling ill. That would be awesome. I never thought of using this type of soap.
I love that soap, we use a similar soap at the hospital I work at!! Good stuff!!
I am such a germaphope! I could really use HIBICLENS around the house for me. I cannot stand to touch any surface that I feel may be germy without some sort of antibacterial wipe or soap nearby to clean my hands immediately.
This soap really is a mom’s best friend. Just by looking at it you can tell that they are all about business! This looks like a great alternative to your every day hand soap. I would definitely consider this for my home. We don’t want anyone sick here!
I really need this as I am germ maniac. I like that it made from natural ingredients
I have never heard of this brand. We use Dove Anitbacterial as that is what our Dr. recommends and it is also the soap they use at the hospitals my husband works at.
This would be perfect for my mother when my son is over. He’s always getting a bit too messy for her.
When I start thinking about germs I instantly want to crawl in a little safe bubble. Especially between children in school, this would be great to have in the bathrooms and classrooms.
I have never heard of HIBICLENS before. I will have to see if it is available at any stores around here.
Great post. I’ll be looking for this. My son has been really good about staying germ free. Usually during cold season he brings at least one cold or virus home. Knock on wood….so far, so good.
I have never heard of Hibiclens before. It would be great to have during cold and flu season.
What? I can’t believe I’ve never heard of this. We could use this in our house for sure. Thanks for sharing!
I’ve usually gone with Neutrogrena or just picked up Dawn and used it for hand soap. I think it’s important in general to make sure to teach kids about the importance of washing their hands.
It’s the first time I’ve heard of Hibiclens but I love that help fight the battle against germs and prevent the transmission of various diseases and illnesses.
Hibiclens is definitely a great brand of soap to use! Sounds like it’s a best friend to a lot of moms out there!
