Read what the product is for

FDA explains that regulatory treatment depends on intended use: cosmetic cleansing, therapeutic uses and surface germ-control products are different categories. Similar packaging does not make their directions interchangeable.

Store unlike products separately

A practical shelf arrangement can reduce mix-ups between skin-cleansing packets and household cleaners. Keep products in their original packaging and follow the warnings on each label. We do not provide homemade wipe or disinfectant recipes.
