‘If you don’t wash your hands properly, you will fall ill’ – Every Indian Parent
This is one of those statements, we have grown up hearing from our parents, teachers, relatives, and siblings. Makes sense. Because our skin easily gets exposed to germs, microbes, bacteria’s, viruses, etc.
Traditionally, washing hands was somewhere similar to wetting hands with water, and that’s it. But as the time passed by, we saw many changes in hand wash techniques.
Remember the time when we used soap bars to wash our hands. Soap bars are still used by many, but they are not very effective when it comes to usage at a public place.
At home, we have our personal grooming material which is safe for usage but most of us spend a part of our day outside home- in school, office, college, or an outing. All these places are mostly crowded, and if we use soap bars here, we touch a thing touched by many others.
Not only this, there are many other factors that prove the ineffectiveness of Soap bars:
- Cost
- Hygiene
- Time
