since it already come with a moisterizer then you wouldn't need to use a moisterizer, and since it does kill 99.9% bacteria... it should kill acne bacteria too right?

NO, because acne bacteria and the bacteria on your hands are different. Besides, hand sanitizer doesnt exactly KILL bacteria...it kind of makes them dormant and easy to wash off so it's better that u wipe your hands on a napkin and dispose of it.
No matter what though, alcohol does kill bacteria. The only problem is that it will dry out your skin and probably irritate it. But hey, go for it and I'd be interesed to see how it worked out. =)

It would, if the acne bacteria were ON your skin instead of INSIDE it. Hand sanitizer kills surface bacteria, but will not penetrate the pores enough, or work its way into the acne you already have. It does have alcohol in it, which may help to dry them out. Sorry, but nice try though.

I wouldn't try using hand sanitizer on your acne. I have acne on my face and the best thing that would work is anything with salicylic acid. That definitely kills acne bacteria. But hand sanitizer may make the acne even more red.

Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

It's always possible, I mean it's good to keep your skin clean. But the majority of acne is caused by hormones, not by bacteria. Keeping your face clean does help keep the acne down, but it's not going to stop acne all together.

Bacteria are everywhere, even in the air. You can remove them from your hands by using anti-bacterial soaps and warm or hot water. You need contact with bacteria to build up your immune system. If you are just worried about harmful bacteria, please also make sure that your kitchen surfaces are clean, and that fruit and veg are washed prior to eating and that you follow guidance for safe cooking of meat and poultry.

I love people who are clueless- like the other people who have answered here...
ACNE IS NOT ONLY CAUSED BY BACTERIA!!!
Dead Skin, Oil, AND bacteria ALL get caught in your pores and inflame them. What you need to do is keep your pores open and free of oil, skin, and bacteria. YOU NEED TO KEEP THE OIL OFF YOUR FACE. Excess oil should be removed as soon as it is noticed to keep your skin from breaking out.

Of course!! the only reason there's a wide variety of chemical proucts for different purposes is because people need to make money off of you!!!
The best thing to do is drink lots and lots of water and shower with hot filtered water only I've seen 3 highly successful cases!!

that is a really good question. though hand sanitizer is made to get germs off ur hands. like if ur sick, hand sanitizer won't get rid of the bacteria inside u. it only cleans the surface. good luck.
hope it disappears
