Washing hands using soap is our first defence against the dreaded coronavirus. As the world still scramble to find the best treatment against this infection, health experts have repeatedly called for us citizens to wash our hands, and wash some more. 

You're not just washing viruses down the drain when you are washing hands with soap, a chemistry professor explains, but you are actually annihilating the coronavirus and other viruses. Does your soap matter? Of course.

According to health experts, one consumer product critical to flattening the curve, or slow the Covid-19 pandemic spread is soap. Naturally, they are not saying soap is the solution. After all, once infected, whatever hand washing one does is going to be futile. Therefore, hand-washing is encouraged every day on almost all instances that you touch something dubious. Even though hand sanitizers and alcohol are god-sent, do not rely on them as much as you should rely on a soap. 

Therefore, buy a soap now, and buy one wisely! Worried about soap drying out your skin with all washing? Don't fret. Here are five hand soaps that will not drying your skin from Amazon:

The last contender for a nice, non-drying hand soap is the Everyone Hand Soap in Lavender and Coconut scent. We have not seen a soap certified so many times and so many ways. It is certified gluten-free, non-GMO project verified, cruelty-free, synthetic fragrance free as well! It has the floral scent of lavender combined with creamy coconut, offering you nice-smelling hands. However, your hands will remain soft and supple with this because the company uses only gentle coconut cleansers and pure essential oils in making this. It contains no parabens, no phthalates, no harsh detergents, and no dyes. These are the usual culprits of drying hands.

Keep Safe everyone! Wash your hands all the time!
