The Purell Advanced series provides a portable solution for hand hygiene, utilizing a 70% Ethyl Alcohol concentration. While the added scents provide a pleasant fragrance, the primary functional value of this set is the integrated silicone carrier system. These "Jelly Wraps" are designed with high-tension silicone to maintain a secure grip on the bottle, even in colder temperatures where other materials might become brittle.
Usability & Build Quality
Specifications indicate the use of a squeeze bottle paired with a flip-top cap. The cap features a living hinge design, which is typically rated for several hundred uses before the material shows signs of fatigue. To maintain the integrity of the plastic components, the formula includes stabilizers that help prevent chemical degradation from the added fragrances. Tests show that the gel is optimized for a 15-second dry time, and the inclusion of glycerin helps manage skin moisture during frequent use.
The essential oil scents are notably potent; individuals with fragrance sensitivities may find the lingering aroma persists on the skin for several hours.
While the silicone strap is built for durability, the plastic hinge on the cap can be sensitive to high-impact drops. Additionally, the scented variants may leave a slightly different texture on the hands compared to the standard clear gel. The 1oz teardrop shape is a specific design that fits securely within the provided carriers, making it difficult to swap with generic refill bottles.
If you prefer a more discreet, flat-profile option for pocket carry, the Deahea Slim Spray Bottles offer a different approach to portability.
Organizing daily essentials like these is easier when using plastic cabinet bins with handles to keep various scents and backups sorted.
