How does alcohol dry the skin? Alcohol is a solvent that extracts the natural oils from the skin, a process sometimes called de-fatting. Loss of these natural oils makes your skin dry cracked and inflexible. Thousands of small micro cracks are caused by each application of alcohol products. Are alcohol products effective at all? Yes. Alcohol at 62% to 67% will kill germs on your skin for approximately 10 seconds. However you will have no germ killing persistence going forward. In fact you most likely re-contaminate your skin when you touch the container cap to put it back on the product bottle. How does a QUAT kill a bacteria cell or virus? All of the PureWorks products contain the powerful disinfectant active ingredients called quaternary ammonium compounds or QUATS. QUATS are positively charged molecules with relatively long hydrophobic tails. These molecules destroy bacteria by destroying their outer membranes and literally dissolving bacteria.
