With two young children there are many, MANY instances that dirty hands are a problem. I am not talking about any dirt – but germy dirt. You know the kind I mean… When your toddler picks up that dirty tissue off the floor at the mall, or your preschooler insists on doing everything themselves, including touching every single possible surface in a public bathroom. Or when you realize that your child is sharing a toy/blanket/game with a child that just wiped their super runny nose with their hand… the same hand that they then used to pass said item to your child. Yup, those kind of dirty hands. YUCK!
Trying to get my children to wash their hands by request is a laughable thought. Yea, right. I would have better luck teaching the cats! I have used traditional hand sanitizer in the past with my daughter – but not without hesitation. I hate the alcohol smell, and that she would complain of the smell and the taste if she was eating and touched her food or mouth. Although neither of us were happy with the products we were using, I figured that it was my only option and better then nothing at all.
I was thrilled to finally find a better way! Prefense Foaming Hand Sanitizer takes care of the germs without the nasty smell and chemicals found in other brands.
Prefense is unique in a variety of ways. The first being that it kills germs for up to 24 hours or 10 hand washings! Just one squirt, and you don’t have to worry so much that your toddler just grabbed that dirty door handle because Prefense is still working. What makes it even better is that it is alcohol free and poison free – it is SAFE FOR KIDS!
I was sent a a 1.5 oz bottle of Prefense to try out and I am really impressed with this product. The bottle is small enough to fit into my purse, medicine cabinet, or glove box, yet big and effective enough to provide 120 applications! Because there is no alcohol, my hands don’t feel dry after applying, but soft and smooth. Add to that the fact that there is no harsh scent, and it is a very enjoyable way to clean your hands. My kids both like it because it foams (who doesn’t like foam?!) and I like that even if they get some in their mouth or on their face it’s non-toxic and I don’t have worry.
My daughter likes it so much that she asks for it each morning after she brushes her teeth – she wants a “pump of the germ killer” as she calls it! It is VERY nice to have found a way to keep their hands germ-free without a fight!
Prefense protects against staph, strep, E.coli, drug resistant MRSA strains, and more. It fights germs that other hand sanitizers can’t! It will quickly become your ultimate weapon for keeping your family healthy!

I am constantly washing my hands & they get so dry. This sounds like a great product:)
I want to try the hand sanitizer because I can’t stand the smells of the alcohol based hand sanitizer or the fact it dries my skin out. Even the ones that smell good still smell like alcohol.

I’d like to try it because Gracie picks up all kinds of germs at school. I could get her to use this prior to leaving and hopefully it would hold up all day.

I really need this because I work in a pharmacy at the drop off window and have constant contact with people dropping off their prescriptions. I am constantly putting on hand sanitizer and my hands are so dry. Applying it less will be wonderful! <3
I am a big believer in hand washing…and all natural products! I would love to try this for myself and the family.

I constantly have my hands in and out of water all day washing them or grooming dogs. This is very drying on my hands and I have tried other brands of “moisturizing hand sanitizes…I would love to try this one to see if it is any better…the others have not really lived up to my expectations.
I would love to try this product. I have Multiple Sclerosis and Lately it has been flaring up. When I have a flare up I have to take mega doses of steroids via I.V. These steroids weaken my immune system which in turn it so I get sick really easy if I am exposed to any germs. I have 2 kids also so it is important for me to try and stay as healthy as possible so I can take care of them. So I would love to try something like this, because it sounds like it would lessen my exposure to germs so I will not get sicker then I already am.
I would love the hand sanitizer. I have a four-year-old…. that is almost enough said, huh? She is always touching stuff… sneezing, etc. I always worry about her getting the alcohol-based sanitizer in her mouth… thanks for entering me into the giveaway.
I have liked Prefense on FB.
I already like Mom Vantage on FB… too bad FB doesn’t offer a “favorite” or “love” button.
I want this because we could use it in the car, on long drives, when we head to the Valley for day trips, after the grocery store, etc.

I need this sanitizer because I deal with money ALL day long! Germs are everywhere and I am a “germ-a-phobe”
I work in different departments daily from machines on. It would keep the germs away.
i work with children and need to keep off the germs frequently
I could really use something like this because I’m getting ready for some long plane flights and heavy traveling. Sounds like a great product, thanks for the review! creedamy at yahoo[dot]com
