The first-of-its-kind hand sanitizer and moisturizer in one. Its unique formula consists of shea butter, hibiscus, jojoba, and other natural ingredients. You’ve never experienced anything quite like this before!

Journ is founded on the purpose of uniquely addressing specific skincare concerns, such as dehydration, skin discoloration, and acne scarring, through our cosmetic skincare line. We are committed to providing you with simple solutions to your daily skincare concerns and rituals. This is why we are proud to offer a hand sanitizer that both effectively sanitizes and moisturizes in one simple step. 

What Is Journ ALSO?

Enrobe your hands in the luxury of Journ’s ALSO moisturizing hand sanitizer. Its buttery, non-greasy, 2-in-1 formula is crafted with shea butter, hibiscus, jojoba, aloe, and vitamin D.

The vitamins A & E in shea butter provide soothing relief to soften and soothe tired skin, while the soothing properties of jojoba help to rescue dry skin from further damage caused by excessive hand-washing and sanitizing. Hibiscus contains alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which sloughs away dead skin cells and encourages brighter, more youthful skin.

Our moisturizing hand sanitizer is vegan, gluten-free, paraben-free, as well as free of sulfates and other unpleasant ingredients which could cause skin irritation. That means that you can rest assured that you are caring for your skin safely and effectively when using the Journ skincare and cosmetic product line.

Hand hygiene and care are now more important than ever. We are all striving to avoid unnecessary illness and protect the ones we love. During these challenging times, it can occasionally be difficult to bend with the ebb and flow of daily tasks, such as errands and changes in schedules, let alone find time to care for and pamper yourself.

Other than the obvious hand-washing and sanitizing, oftentimes, our hands are forgotten with the busyness of life.

Your Hands Deserve Love and Care

Your hands work hard every day to assist you in completing ordinary daily tasks. Why not take care of them? Your hands are unique. Even your fingerprints are uniquely yours. Each skin cell combines to create a barrier of protection for your body—protection that we cannot safely live without. 

Your hands demonstrate love, care, and compassion. Hands hold loved ones and help create a sense of unity among people of all walks of life. In a sense, your hands speak silently through your actions every single day. Like the rest of your skin, your hands deserve to be pampered with ALSO.

Did you know that your skin is the largest organ of your body? If neglected, your skin can become dry and damaged. Dry, cracked skin not only feels uncomfortable but can also allow bacteria and germs to enter your body. This is why it is so important to keep your hands both clean and moisturized. These two go hand in hand.

What Are the Ingredients In Journ ALSO?

Let’s take a look at a few of the ingredients listed in the Journ ALSO moisturizing hand sanitizer:

Shea Butter

Shea butter is an excellent source of moisturization due to its fatty acid and vitamin E content. These oils absorb quickly into the skin, helping to restore vital lipids. 

Shea butter originates from the seeds of the shea tree. Each seed is opened, and the oily kernels are removed, ground, and boiled in water to release the rich butter solid. Shea butter has been used since ancient times to treat a variety of skin ailments ranging from skin rashes and dandruff to other minor skin irritations. 

Shea butter is also known for its soothing properties because of its ability to strengthen the skin’s barrier. In modern-day manufacturing, shea butter is used in cosmetics and hair care because of its soothing and moisturizing attributes. 

The rich consistency provides the perfect softening base for lotions, creams, and various amounts of other cosmetics because it works as an emollient.

Hibiscus

Hibiscus is a tropical flowering plant in the mallow family. Hibiscus contains alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) that gently exfoliate the skin by sloughing off the outer layer of dead skin cells. 

In comparison, the chemical form of AHA acids can be overly harsh and damaging. The hibiscus’ natural exfoliation properties promote firmer, more supple-looking skin.

Collagen both strengthens skin and provides moisture and elasticity. The naturally moisture-rich qualities of the hibiscus assist in maintaining and supporting moisture balance and hydration

Hibiscus also packs a punch with antioxidants and vitamin c, which help prevent the signs of premature aging. Talk about flower power! 

Jojoba

Jojoba is yet another powerhouse skincare ingredient with its variety of soothing, moisturizing, and restorative properties. Ironically, it is grown and harvested in desert climates. 

Jojoba plants are well adapted for controlling moisture loss, thus allowing them to live in dry conditions.

The plants are grown to produce jojoba oil, which is a liquid wax extracted from the seed. Like shea butter, jojoba also contains a natural form of vitamin E. Simply put, vitamin E  protects the skin and moisturizes. This vitamin teams up with your skin to reduce oxidative stressors (the imbalance of free radicals) caused by exposure to pollutants and other environmental toxins, which we are all exposed to daily. 

Jojoba keeps skin calm and comfortable with its properties that sweep in to rescue dry, irritated skin. 

Choose the Honest, Well-Researched, Simple Solution

There are so many lotions, potions, and pretty little packages out on the market shelves today. Sometimes it can feel overwhelming to see so many formulas with so many ingredients in jars of all shapes and sizes, each one glaring at you as if to say, “choose me!” 

Fortunately, we have eliminated the guesswork for you with our honest, upfront approach to skincare and the ingredients we use. We at Journ aim to provide simple skincare solutions for you with ingredients you can trust.

There is no way to avoid the need to sanitize your hands throughout each and every single day. The CDC recommends washing your hands whenever possible for at least 20 seconds, and when soap and water are not readily available, hand sanitizer is next up on the list of recommendations

Hand sanitizers usually leave the skin dry, chapped, and longing for moisture and balance, not to mention the usually odd scent and chemical ingredients they sometimes contain. Be sure to read the product labels. 

We at Journ have created a one-of-a-kind hand sanitizer and moisturizer in-one product that we are proud to share with you. Journ ALSO hand sanitizer ingredients proudly meet FDA and CDC safety and efficacy guidelines for hand sanitizer. 

You can rest assured that you are safely and effectively sanitizing your hands. Shea butter, hibiscus, and jojoba join forces to help create a dream team product formulated with you in mind. 

How To Use Journ ALSO

Simply squeeze a pea-sized amount of ALSO’s buttery formula onto your hands and gently massage for 20 seconds until fully absorbed. Do not rinse. This nourishing sanitizer may be easily applied as often as needed throughout your day's JOURNey.
