what is the ratio you use? Specifically the alcohol to gel?

Someone posted the recipe in a comment a short time back here at FR, and I copied and saved it for a later date.

2/3 cup Isopropyl alcohol 91% (rubbing alcohol) 1/3 cup aloe vera gel Essential oil in your choice of fragrance (optional) A small or medium mixing bowl A spoon An empty container, such as a 3-ounce container from a travel toiletries kit A small piece of masking tape for labeling

It has to be between 60 and 70% to work so I am going for 66% because it's an easy ratio to mix, 1/3 aloe vera 2/3 alcohol and a capful of peroxide. The peroxide is to kill bacteria that could be in the solution and isn't used for your hands. They also recommend you let it sit for a couple of days before using.

Companies like Purell spend a lot of money to come up with the perfect formulation to feel and work good on your skin. This won't be as nice but it will do in a pinch.

2 parts 90% alcohol 1 part aloe (or glycerin if no aloe available).
