Why Washing Hands Is Crucial and How to Choose the Correct Hand Wash

The most important thing to do every day in this pandemic season is to wash your hands every day, only then will the family stay safe!

Personal hygiene is important. We all know this but in today’s fast-paced lives, it is easy to forget the basics. However, in the past year and a half, the COVID-19 pandemic has reminded us all about the importance of personal hygiene - washing hands being among the most fundamental ones.

From the World Health Organisation to leading scientists and doctors all over the world, everyone has been emphasising on the importance of washing hands and the correct way to do so.

The importance of washing hands for general health and well-being

Now, pandemic or no pandemic, for general health and well-being in day-to-day life, maintaining hygiene is crucial and handwashing is a key element to help get rid of germs and prevents diseases. However, we cannot ignore the fact that amidst the COVID-19 crisis, the importance of hand hygiene has become even more important.

Handwashing becomes even more pertinent in households with children as they are curious and tend to touch practically everything that comes in their way- soil, floor, doors, handles, toys and books to name a few. Plus, their immunity systems are not as developed and this makes them more vulnerable to infections and diseases.

Did you know that according to studies it is estimated that washing hands with soap has the potential to reduce diarrheal diseases by 42 to 47 percent?

This is where a good, reliable hand wash or soap comes into play. Even the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends using soap and water to wash hands properly to prevent the spread of pathogens like viruses and bacteria that carry deadly diseases.

Choosing the correct hand wash for your child and your family

Now that we have established the importance of handwashing for your family’s health and well-being, the next question is which hand wash to go for? Today, there is no dearth of handwash brand and choices in the market.

Additionally, there is an excessive influx of information online as well as offline. This can easily overwhelm us as consumers making it difficult to choose the correct hand wash. I can say this with confidence because as a new mom that too in the age of a pandemic, this is a struggle I go through myself on an everyday basis.

I believe for any family; the right kind of hand wash would not only help kill germs but would also be kid-safe so we don’t have to buy multiple products or worry about the side effects of harsh chemicals on our children.

Plus, it needs to be gentle on our skin because we need to wash our hands repeatedly, especially in homes with young children.

Let me introduce you to Kirei Kirei- Japan’s No.1 Hand Wash. Lion’s Kirei Kirei is an anti-bacterial foaming hand wash that kills 99.9% of germs, and is dermatologically tested.

Safe to use for the entire family, this foaming hand wash is formulated with 100% cleansing ingredients derived from plants, and is proven gentle on the skin.

 

Why choose Kirei Kirei as your family hand wash?

Why Washing Hands Is Crucial and How to Choose the Correct Hand Wash

While there are numerous brands in the market selling hand wash and foams, Kirei Kirei has managed to establish a niche for itself not only in Japan but across the region. Launched in Japan in 1997, Kirei Kirei has built a reputation in the past two and a half decades.

Today, the brand is present in seven different countries holding the No.1 Hand Wash position in Japan, Korea, Singapore and Thailand and is all set to enter Malaysia aiming to help young kids and their parents stay clean, safe and healthy.

Here’s why Kirei Kirei is the hand wash for you and your family:

  • Removes 99.9% Germs: Kirei Kirei formulated with Isopropyl Methylphenol (IPMP) that is effective in removing a wide range of bacteria, yeasts, and fungi, and thus provides superior protection against germs.
  • Rich, creamy and fine foam for effective cleaning: The bottle of this handwash is specially designed so it instantly dispenses an ample amount of rich, creamy foam that is very fine making cleaning more effective than ordinary liquid hand wash. The very fine foam easily removes dirt even without rubbing.
  • 12x more volume than ordinary liquid handwash: Easy and thorough cleaning for younger kids. The foam makes it easier to spread thoroughly all over hands to the fingertips, more effectively cleaning a bigger surface area – useful for young kids.
  • A sustainable choice: What makes Kirei Kirei stand out among ordinary handwash brands are its uniquely designed bottles that avoid spillage and reduce wastage furthering the cause of sustainability. The foam is easy to rinse off, hence uses less water. This means you can get more hand washes per package with foam-based hand wash and help the environment by saving water as well as packaging and transportation carbon footprint. Furthermore, they offer refill packs encouraging users to cultivate the habit of refilling to help reduce wastage for a greener, cleaner planet.
  • Make hand washing fun for your kids: Kirei Kirei literally means “Clean Clean” in Japanese. This is a popular phrase used by moms to encourage good hand hygiene among kids in Japan. The foaming hand wash comes in a cute packaging with fun characters and vibrant colours making the hand washing routine a fun activity for kids and a bonding opportunity for families.
  • A trusted brand as Japan’s No.1 Hand Wash: Kirei Kirei has been Japan’s No.1 hand wash for almost two decades and is widely popular across the region. It is a trusted brand in over seven nations. This gives mothers assurance and a peace of mind that it is a good quality product.

Kirei Kirei is a foaming hand wash that not only provides maximum protection against germs but it also makes a mundane everyday task fun for kids and for the family. This foaming hand wash is the best choice for you and your family.
