(23,175 posts)My daughter told me she was looking for glycerine or aloe to mix with 70% alcohol to make her own and was having trouble finding any. I thought about other products and realized hair gel might work. I told my friend and she said that maybe I could style the hair on my knuckles into a Mohawk. I told her I was afraid my fingers might get stiff. I experimented and my idea does work. I didn't measure and just made a small amt. I bought several bottles of hand samitizer last fall, but since I'm home a lot, don't need to use it, so have it for now.
My friend got glycerine at her grocery store and was going to make some hand sanitizer. She pointed out that KY jelly is mostly glycerine, so if push comes to shove, it would probably work. Lol
If you have a bottle, you can add some alcohol to it. Some brands thicken up, others get runny, but either way, it extends it. Hope you find some.
