Like face masks, hand sanitiser is likely to become an essential item (if it wasn't already!) we will all need to keep handy in our handbags, glove boxes, backpacks and more.

But if you don't like the idea of pulling out an ugly bottle of Dettol, Isocol or Aqium multiple times a day, I have some good news! There are plenty of stylish hand santisers available that will fit discretely in your pocket or bag.

Here are 8 to try:

1. Sannys: a new generation designer spray hand sanitiser created to protect you on the go while keeping your hands hydrated. This medical grade 80% alcohol sanitiser does the job - killing 99.9% of germs. But most importantly, it comes in a sleek pocket-size spray bottle in three colours; black, blue and rose. So not only does it looks great but there's no more messy drips either.

Stay safe, social and stylish with Sanny - $19.95 each - buy here.

2. Leif: celebrating the diverse flora of our land, this 75ml gel sanitiser contains essential oils supercharged with antibacterial properties and 70% alcohol (recommended by WHO) derived from natural cane sugar. This pocket-sized protector is pH balanced, has an invigorating Eucalyptus and Tea Tree scent that is tempered by Peru Balsam and a velvety texture for quick absorption.

Available to purchase on its own or in a duo with their hand balm - $15 or $35 - check them out here.

This Australian Lemon Myrtle Hand sanitiser has such a unique scent, it's a great break from that classic 'sanitiser' scent too. https://samsonandcharlie.com.au/collections/hand-care-1/products/australian-lemon-myrtle-hand-sanitiser
