MOMS are very keen when it comes to protecting their families. That is why rubbing alcohol is the most common choice of disinfectant in Filipino households. While many people know that it can kill 99.9 percent of bacteria, not everyone knows the two forms of rubbing alcohol found in the market and their differences.

Isopropyl alcohol is a colorless liquid and is known for its strong scent, commonly described by some consumers as “matapang ang amoy.” It is derived from propylene, a compound that comes from fossil fuels such as petroleum. Petroleum is often called crude oil. According to the New Jersey Department of Health Hazardous Substance Fact Sheet, prolonged exposure to Isopropyl alcohol may lead to skin rashes, itching, redness and dryness on the skin. Even inhaling it may cause nose and throat infection.

Ethyl alcohol, on the other hand, is a colorless substance with a mild scent. It is made from plants, sugarcane and grains like corn, wheat and barley. It undergoes fermentation wherein the starches from the grains are turned into alcohol.

Casino Ethyl Alcohol is made from sugarcane and prides itself on being a natural product. Natural product is known to be safer for people and friendlier to nature based on the International Journal of Chemistry. Casino Ethyl Alcohol is potent in eliminating microbes as it kills 99.9 percent of germs yet is still safe on the skin.

Consumers in the alcohol category consider scent as a huge factor when it comes to purchasing the product. With Casino, they can be assured that not only is it fragrant, it also contains moisturizer which keeps your skin from drying. As it disinfects without drying the skin, it is safe for everyday use.
