Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between antibacterial and regular handwashing?

Antibacterial soaps contain extra active agents that target a broader range of germs. Regular handwashing relies on surfactants and thorough rinsing. For everyday household use, either works well when you scrub for at least twenty seconds.

Which handwash is best for sensitive or dry skin?

Look for labels stating “moisturising” or “pH balanced.” Formulas with shea butter, aloe, or oat extract clean while adding a protective layer, preventing tightness after drying.

How often should I wash my hands during the day?

Wash your hands before eating, after using the restroom, returning from outdoors, or touching public surfaces. That means you should wash your hands 8-10 times per day to remain safe from germs. 

Are there natural or herbal handwash options available on Zepto?

Yes, Zepto offers plant-based soaps made with neem, tulsi, or citrus oil as a cleanser, and mild foaming agents extracted from coconuts.

Is foaming handwash more effective than liquid handwash?

Effectiveness lies in proper usage. Foam spreads faster and may encourage longer scrubbing in kids, but both forms remove dirt and germs equally when users cover every part of their hands and rinse well.

Do handwashes on Zepto kill 99.9% germs and bacteria?

Many products listed on Zepto are tested to meet that benchmark. Check each item’s description for verified claims and certification numbers. Always follow the recommended wash time for best results.

What ingredients should I look for in a moisturizing handwash?

Always look for glycerine, vitamin E, panthenol, or natural oils like almond or olive in the moisturizers. These help restore the skin barrier after every wash.

How do I choose between refill packs and pump bottles?

Pump bottles are convenient for first-time setup. Refill packs cost less per millilitre and reduce plastic waste. If you already own a dispenser, choose refills to keep the hand wash price down and support sustainability.
