Eliminate Germs in Seconds: Pocket Purifier Review and Giveaway

Germs are everywhere!  No matter how often we clean or what types of cleaning products we use.  I try not to freak out and obsess about germs at home but there are some places that make me cringe at the thought, places like public rest rooms, playground equipment and motel rooms!  It's sad to say but you just never know who or what has touched the things before you or if they were sick so it's often times better to be safe than sorry.

Kitchens are a hotbed for germs and other foul microorganisms, but many people are wary of using harsh chemicals to eliminate them from counters, sinks, cutting boards and other cooking tools. Purely Products has created a new gadget that holds the solution. The Pocket Purifier is a compact germicidal light that uses the same UV-C light used to sterilize surgical instruments to eliminate 99.9% of germs that cause colds, and flu, plus e-coli, salmonella, mold, fungus and more in under 15 seconds. The Pocket Purifier is powered by AAA batteries and is priced at under $20. 

Imagine my surprise when I was recently introduced to the Pocket Purifier.

Did you know that desktops have almost 21,000 germs per square inch, phones more than 25,000 (toilet seats have only 49). The Pocket Purifier has a built-in germicidal UV-C lightbulb that deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, destroying their ability to multiply. 


The Pocket Purifier is compact making it perfect for use at home and on-the-go.  Of course we all know that we can't actually see the germs that are around us constantly.  But by using products that claim to kill 99% of all germs really do make us feel better, Right?



Who needs a Pocket Purifier?

Do you ever... put your purse on the movie theater floor? Jump on the elliptical at the gym? Grocery shop in flu season? Slice raw chicken on your cutting board? Use the computer everyone has access to? Carpool kids? Throw half-eaten snacks back in your backpack? Use an airplane bathroom? Lay a gym bag on a locker room floor? Pick up the baby's pacifier off the ground? Use a hotel remote control? Let someone use your cell phone?

Clean, healthy living can be like running a germ gauntlet. Pocket Purifier™ puts a wall of defense in your hands with its handheld germicidal light. Lightweight and convenient, Pocket Purifier sanitizes surfaces and objects with the same UV-C light that sterilizes surgical instruments. Ultraviolet light and nanotechnology eliminate 99.9% of germs that cause colds and flu, plus e-coli, salmonella, mold, fungus and MRSA (staph). At home, at work, in public, for all high-touch surfaces, Pocket Purifier is the most environmentally responsible way to kill germs without chemicals - hands-down.
