Have You Been Spreading Disease By Drying Your Hands Wrong?

Now I can rock clean, dry hands no matter which options I have.

No matter how you decide to dry, make sure you start with washing your hands properly.


Wet your hands with running water.

Apply soap.

Lather well.

Rub your hands vigorously for at least 20 seconds. (Don’t leave germs on your hands by stopping early. Kill them all!!! *evil laughter*)

Remember to scrub all surfaces.

Including the backs of your hands, wrists, between your fingers and under your fingernails. Germs love those spots.

Rinse well.

Dry your hands using your new drying tips.If possible, use a towel or your elbow to turn off the faucet and open the door (because not everyone is as smart as you, and bathroom faucets and doors are, like, super gross).

Don’t let the germs win. Share this video.
