SOS: 4 Products That Give Pandemic Peace of Mind

This patented FDA-cleared formula was created to be the most effective lid and lash solution available without a prescription. It kills a broad spectrum of bacteria and successfully helps relieve chronic eye conditions like dry eye, blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, contact lens intolerance, and inflammation.

But here’s the crazy part: it’s proven to kill a variety of pathogens, including harmful bacteria, fungi, and viruses! Previously only available by prescription, this medical-grade HOCl uses 0.01% pure hypochlorous acid—which your body naturally produces to fight off toxins and inflammation caused by bacteria. I spray this product around my face before leaving the house and always have it in my purse.

While any mask is better than no mask, not all masks are created equal, and an N-95 mask is the best. According to the Mayo Clinic, “an N95 mask offers more protection than a surgical mask does because it can filter out both large and small particles when the wearer inhales.” As the name indicates, the mask is designed to block 95% of very small particles. The Respokare is a NIOSH (CDC) certified N95 Mask which features an added antiviral layer with patented technology that neutralizes viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens within seconds of contact.

This antiviral technology offers two key benefits: 1) An additional layer of protection to stop virus particles from reaching your mouth and nose, and 2) Neutralizing any live virus on the outside of the mask to protect the user when they touch the mask and when they discard the mask. The antiviral layer neutralizes viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens on contact and is FDA cleared and Nelson labs tested. They have a wide range of collections, so you can choose which one is right for you and your family.

Being in a well-ventilated space—or better yet, outside—has been crucial to safe gatherings since scientists learned more about how the virus is spread. Aside from being super anal about changing your air filters, it feels like there isn’t much to be done as winter approaches and time spent outdoors decreases. Enter the Purashield Mini Air Scrubber with UV Light.

This little device backs quite the one-two punch. Not only does it use a disposable four-layer filter, which includes an antimicrobial layer that uses PuraWard® technology, but it also has a UV light that eliminates viruses and bacteria. To reiterate, the Purashield filters 99.9% of target viruses and bacteria* and removes many aerosols carrying viruses, bacteria, mold, and smoke. We plan on sleeping with this by our bedside and having the Purashield with us every waking minute ‘til this national nightmare is over.

*Laboratory testing demonstrated a 99.99% reduction of aerosols carrying MS2. Copies of the full test reports are available upon request.

**Filter protected by an EPA-registered antimicrobial additive.
