Magic Sprinkles

You can now purchase Magic Sprinkles, Cherry Press' fabulously fragrant Mediterranean citrus hand sanitizer from me and at the Bennington Bookstore and on the College Bookstore's website.

You use a lot of hand sanitizer working on a college campus during a pandemic.  Tired of horrible-smelling sprays and gels, I set out to create a pleasantly-scented, portable disinfectant.

I was inspired by the redolence of cold-pressed lemon oil, an active ingredient in Lemon Plate Cleaner (LPC).  LPC is a non-toxic replacement for lithographic Finisher Preserver Cleaner that I developed here, at my workshop Cherry Press.

Based loosely upon traditional Turkish kolonya,  Magic Sprinkles is an uplifting blend of essential oils, including lemon, bergamot and rose - known to relieve anxiety and stress, deter exhaustion, improve cognitive function, raise endorphins, heal skin and fight bacteria.  

I consulted with my two young nieces on a name for the new product:  The five-year old suggested "Magic Sprinkles" and the nine-year-old-going-on-nineteen quipped, "call it Hand Sanitizer" - and thus, Magic Sprinkles Hand Sanitizer was created.

Magic Sprinkles is free of synthetic fragrances, benzene, paragons, phthalates and sulfites and contains 85% ethanol.  It is packaged in 2 oz./59 ml recyclable, BPA-free, PET plastic spray bottles.  Contact me for refills!
