Muddy, l do because some fragrances/perfumes really affect me. I am allergic to many things and react to them.

My hands get sore from sanitizers, the skin around my nails is peeling. I only use a tiny bit in shops now. The alcohol in it dries your skin.

It certainly does, I use Sorbolene on my hands every day now, I can't say it keeps them soft and lovely but it does stop the skin drying out. According to the bottle it also contains vitamin E (no idea what that does).

I went to a Garden Centre yesterday, sanitiser and wipes were readily available next to the trolleys - I think I had the cleanest, sparkliest trolley of the day!

Perhaps that is why you have a second wave? I have never seen anyone not wipe down a trolley or use the hand sanitiser.

Never manage to get the right amount out either too much hardly any or nothing because the thing is empty and not been replaced.

The foam ones do have a distinctive smell, the gel ones leave hands sticky.

Marks and Spencer’s hand sanitiser was the worst smelling and was really sickly. Even when l washed it off, l could still smell it.
Have you noticed the various smells of the hand sanitisers? Or are you just grateful that they supply them?

Regarding the trolley sanitising sprays. The jobsworth Sainsbury’s supermarket assistant on the door said, l would rust the trolley by spraying the handle and that l should spray it onto the cloth first and then wipe the handle.

Errrmm, Mr Jobsworth, don’t trolleys that are left out in the rain get rusty??

Indeed, take no notice at our supermarket the trolley guy sprays them like that when collecting them from trolley bay or wherever they have been left.

Our local M&S food store has a person standing outside wiping down returned trolleys and baskets ready for the next customer.
