Alcohol based hand sanitizers may be effective in killing this virus, but only to a certain extent. Alcohol stays active on your hands for only up to 5 seconds, and it dries and cracks your skin, making you more susceptible to contracting the virus. Fortunately, there is a better product on the market today. PureWorks First Aid Antiseptic Foam and Lotion contains no alcohol, and it contains moisturizer to help moisturize and condition your skin. This leads to healthier skin which further defends against contracting germs. What’s more, the active ingredient is benzethonium chloride, whose properties allow the component to stay on your skin for hours fighting germs.

The First Aid Antiseptic/Hand Sanitizer will be available for the stars as they freshen up in their portable Royal Restrooms. This event at the Malibu Beach House at Carbon Beach will include an elite guest list consisting of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Matthew McConaughey, Eva Mendes, Lindsay Lohan, Jeremy Piven, Charlize Theron, Slash, Dave Navarro, Adrian Grenier, Brody Jenner, Luke Wilson, Tara Reid, Elisabeth Röhm, Matthew Perry, Tobey Maguire, Paris Hilton, Fergie, Jessica Simpson, Evan Rachel Wood, Blair Underwood, Taylor Dayne, Justin&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt; Timberlake, Courteney Cox, &lt;st1:personname st="on"&gt;Chris&lt;/st1:personname&gt; Evans, John Stamos, Pink, and the Plain White T’s. This party is the second of three. A party was held on Memorial Day weekend to kick off the Summer, and a Labor Day weekend party is scheduled. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;But what’s more, the days of using alcohol based hand sanitizer are over for the stars attending this event. Alcohol, as we know, is very damaging to the skin. It actually dries and cracks the skin, particularly from repeated use, which ironically leads to a greater likelihood of collecting and spreading germs. The stars will also be happy to know that they will not face the risk of fire that they would otherwise tolerate in the presence of the flammable alcohol based hand sanitizers. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;So congratulations to all the attendees, and may they have a safe and joyous Weekend at &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Carbon&lt;/st1:placename&gt;  &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Beach&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;For more information, or to purchase this exciting new product, feel free to call 727-391-2914, email &lt;a href="mailto:chris@handefend.com"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;chris@handefend.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; or visit www.handefend.com.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="t"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1836797605840384826-1246145257855453268?l=handefend.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://handefend.blogspot.com/feeds/1246145257855453268/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1836797605840384826&amp;postID=1246145257855453268' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1836797605840384826/posts/default/1246145257855453268'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1836797605840384826/posts/default/1246145257855453268'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://handefend.blogspot.com/2008/06/pureworks-once-again-makes-its-way-to.html' title='PureWorks once again makes its way to The Summer of Stars!

Alcohol, as we know, is very damaging to the skin. It actually dries and cracks the skin, particularly from repeated use, which ironically leads to a greater likelihood of collecting and spreading germs. The stars will also be happy to know that they will not face the risk of fire that they would otherwise tolerate in the presence of the flammable alcohol based hand sanitizers. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;So congratulations to all the attendees, and may they have a safe and joyous Saturday at &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Malibu&lt;/st1:placename&gt;  &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Beach&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;For more information, or to purchase this exciting new product, feel free to call 727-391-2914, email &lt;a href="mailto:chris@handefend.com"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;chris@handefend.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; or visit www.handefend.com.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="t"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1836797605840384826-2003299998706059815?l=handefend.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://handefend.blogspot.com/feeds/2003299998706059815/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1836797605840384826&amp;postID=2003299998706059815' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1836797605840384826/posts/default/2003299998706059815'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1836797605840384826/posts/default/2003299998706059815'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://handefend.blogspot.com/2008/05/new-alcohol-free-hand-sanitizer-makes.html' title='New alcohol free hand sanitizer makes its way to The Summer of Stars Malibu Beach Party!'/><author><name>Chris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06601680074483896379</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KDfEM07ACXQ/Shva7-wqy6I/AAAAAAAAACA/sHf5OjuPCA8/S220/cvrj.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1836797605840384826.post-5537492277459245624</id><published>2008-05-03T20:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-04T18:25:07.908-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Hurray for Hollywood!

The following is a copy of the press release being distributed to introduce the news of this exciting event:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;      &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;This Mother’s Day, moms in &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Hollywood&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; will get softer and healthier hands when protecting themselves from germs with an all new hand sanitizing lotion!&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Celebrity moms, including Jessica Alba, Jamie Pressly,&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Salma Hayek, Kim Raver, &lt;st1:personname st="on"&gt;Chris&lt;/st1:personname&gt;tina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez, Angelina Jolie, and many more will be receiving a potpourri of gifts for Mother’s Day in a basket put together by the gift-giving gurus at Distinctive Assets for “Mother’s Day in &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Hollywood&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;”. But, among the gifts this year will be an item like never before … a lotion that works as a first aid antiseptic, moisturizer, conditioner, AND a hand sanitizer! Gone now are the dangers from alcohol based products in hand sanitization for these lucky celebrated moms! &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Instead of drying and cracking their hands when trying to gain protection from germs, they can now moisturize and condition their skin in the process, thanks to PureWorks First Aid Antiseptic/Hand Sanitizer. What’s more, since alcohol evaporates in less than five seconds, their germ fighting protection is now radically extended with the use of this new lotion since the active ingredient will stay on their hands killing germs for up to 6 hours. No doubt, these moms will love this. The lotion will decrease the likelihood of inadvertently spreading germs to their children, and, they will most certainly love the prospect of long lasting protection when it comes to the frequency by which they interact and shake hands with a number of people (as we know celebrities tend to do). &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;So, congratulations to these lucky moms this year that will receive this exclusive item in their Mother’s Day gift basket! They will now have in their hands a new and revolutionary technology that is the first to provide moisturizing and conditioning of the skin, along with hand sanitization for several hours, without the risk of fire, damaging their hands, or introducing any of the other dangers characteristic of alcohol-based products. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;            &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;For more information about this exciting new product, or to purchase, please feel free to call 727-391-2914, email &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" href="mailto:chris@handefend.com"&gt;chris@handefend.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;, or visit &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.handefend.com/"&gt;www.handefend.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1836797605840384826-5537492277459245624?l=handefend.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://handefend.blogspot.com/feeds/5537492277459245624/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1836797605840384826&amp;postID=5537492277459245624' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1836797605840384826/posts/default/5537492277459245624'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1836797605840384826/posts/default/5537492277459245624'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://handefend.blogspot.com/2008/05/hurray-for-hollywood-pureworks-is.html' title='Hurray for Hollywood!

The World Health Organization reports that nearly 40 new diseases have emerged in the last 30 years, and over 1100 epidemic events took place in the last 5 years alone. Given the current expanse of infectious diseases such as influenza, MRSA, C-Diff, etc., greater precautions need to be taken to protect our children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The average school aged child contacts 4 or more colds per year, with each cold lasting 5 to 14 days. Unfortunately, the task of protecting children has become more difficult. In an attempt to combat these problems, hand sanitizers have been used in the schools to minimize the hand to hand spreading of germs. However, this approach introduces more problems of it own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There have been a multitude of incidences across the country where children have tried to ingest these alcohol based hand sanitizers to get intoxicated. As a result, children have been getting sick, and in some cases, have had to be rushed to hospital emergency rooms for treatment. What’s more, the alcohol based sanitizers are flammable, and pose a fire hazard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently alcohol based products dominate the hand sanitizer business. But due to the problems caused by the alcohol content, many schools have been forced to ban the hand sanitizer, leaving children with no means of protection, and no known alternatives.&lt;br /&gt;Alcohol sanitizers have introduced even more problems than this. When the alcohol is applied to the skin it evaporates quickly, within 3 to 5 seconds. In this time the alcohol stops protecting against bacteria, dries and cracks the skin, making it more susceptible to collecting and spreading germs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fortunately, a solution to these problems has recently emerged. A new product is now on the market that is not flammable, does not dry and crack your skin when applied, and contains moisturizer that improves the health of your skin. The active ingredient, benzethonium chloride, is a positively charged molecule which stays on your negatively charged skin killing germs for up to 6 hours.

I honestly believe that this product will phase out alcohol-based hand sanitizers much in the same way compact disks phased out albums in the music stores in the 1980's. It sure would have been nice to be one of the original distributors of CD's then .. but here we are now ..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;One of the things I love is how easy it is to be sincerely excited when you are talking to people about the product. You do not have to conjure up a sales pitch, or be an annoying salesperson. You have the goods, and it is an obvious genuine opportunity with immense potential. It seems that anyone with common sense can pick right up on the fact that this is a great vehicle to success, and this is the perfect time to jump on it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I would like to express my appreciation to the folks at Marketing Pros, and at PureWorks for making this opportunity available.
