Keeping Our Hands Clean

Stuff We Love
Sept. 21, 2024

While we love the excitement of fall and back to school, we don’t love that the germs tag along. Give the kiddos—and the grown-ups, too—a little extra protection with the help of the hand sanitizer lineup from the Secret Garden at Brys Estate in Traverse City. They offer two aromatic scents: Lavender Pure Hands and B.E. Clean. Both contain 62% ethyl alcohol to sanitize along with aloe vera to moisturize and vitamins B-5 and E to promote healthy skin. (Plus, they’re vegan, cruelty-free, and free from sulfates and parabens!) The lavender version uses essential oil from the garden’s purple plants, while B.E. Clean offers a fresh combo of lemon, eucalyptus, and tea tree oil. Find their products at local stores like Tom’s Food Markets, at their storefront on Old Mission Peninsula (3309 Blue Water Road), or online at bryssecretgarden.com.
