Hand sanitizers and methods for producing and using the same are provided. In an embodiment, a hand sanitizer comprises an alkyl monoalcohol at from about 50 to about 95 weight percent, based on the total weight of the hand sanitizer, where the monoalcohol has from 1 to 3 carbon atoms. The hand sanitizer also comprises a glycerin alkyl ether at from about 0.1 to about 5 weight percent, a glycerin alkyl ester at from about 0.1 to about 3 weight percent, an aromatic alcohol at from about 0.1 to about 3 weight percent, and a surfactant at from about 0.5 to about 10 weight percent. All weight percents are based on the total weight of the hand sanitizer, and the surfactant comprises a fluorosurfactant, a silicone based surfactant, or a combination thereof.
