Wash your hands!

As perpetual hand washers - who wash our hands every time we see a sink - we often wonder why people haven’t been doing this all along. It feels so good to have clean hands!

In navigating our obsessive need for clean, we’re taking every precaution to ensure the BPR Inc. office is preparing for any germs it may come in contact with when we reopen. Working with food for as many years as we have requires an added level of precaution and cleanliness to ensure none of the packages that leave the office have any foreign objects in them.

While the pandemic has taught us many lessons, some of the habits we’ve learned should never go away. Whether it be regular access to hand sanitizer (minimum 60% alcohol!), wearing masks, or practicing social distancing, everyone should be doing their part.

Now, over a year in, and we have a number of new products that we’ve found to help brighten the path to cleanliness. Here are a few we wanted to share with you:

Wash your hands!

($34, Holt Renfrew)

Notes of Seville orange, Mandarin, bergamot and neroli - smells like heaven!

Disinfect as you work!

($14.99, The Honey Bee Store)

Orange blossom honey scented with aloe vera gel and witch hazel - keeps those hands soft!

Sanitize in transit!

Nashinku Pocket Hand Sanitizer Discovery Pack

($10 USD/1oz available on Nordstrom)

Bergamot, eucalyptus or Lavendula - a subtle scent to perk you up.

Mask Up!

If you can’t get your (sanitized) hands on a limited edition La Crema face mask, our office faves are the 5-packs from Old Navy. If you ask nicely we may have a couple La Crema masks left and willing to share...

($15/5 pieces at Old Navy stores or oldnavy.com)

And lastly, to help keep the (home) office clean…
