Fight Those Germs: 10 Antibacterial products to use daily
Especially if you’re a mom watching out for her kids, make sure you keep those germs at bay, every day!
Even though there has been news in recent years regarding the controversy over antibacterial products and the active ingredient triclosan, the Health Sciences Authority of Singapore has confirmed that there is no cause for concern as there is insufficient proof that triclosan is indeed harmful to humans. Whatever it is, the number of antibacterial products found on the shelf doesn’t seem to be decreasing, and definitely helps us feel safer, especially when there are kids around.
If you’re living alone and absolutely adore the scent of the soaps that you’re currently using, which are not antimicrobial, go ahead! As long as you’re washing your hands and body thoroughly, they probably clean well anyway. However, if you’re taking care of a child, we highly recommend you to watch what products they’re exposed to. Children have a weaker immune system, so it’s important you keep unwanted bacteria away from their surroundings, lest you want a sick child in bed tonight.
Just to give you a heads up, in our gallery are a list of products you might want to invest in starting today, whether they be for your kid, or solely as a precaution for yourself. Don’t worry, they smell great as well!
