I Found a Hand Sanitizer That Doesn't Give Me a Headache, and I Keep One in Every Purse

I'm a germophobe, and I have no problem admitting that. I've been toting around hand sanitizer since middle school, and on public transportation, forget about it. The downside is that hand sanitizer usually dries out my skin, and I hate the potent smell.
Recently, though, I found a hand sanitizer that smells like coconut and lemongrass, and my life has never been the same. I'm constantly complimented on the scent, prompting me to gift it to a few close friends. I now keep one in every bag, knowing that, for me, nothing else quite compares. As we head into cold and flu season, do yourself a favor and carry around a hand sanitizer that you actually enjoy applying.
