Hand creams containing alcohol

is it halal to use any hand/ body cream that contains alcohol in its ingredients?
and what about perfumes?

Re: Hand creams containing alcohol

alcohol used in cosmetics/lotions/shampoos/and perfumes…is not the same kind that makes you drunk.

Re: Hand creams containing alcohol

on that same note.. how abt mouthwash?? That also has alcohol in it (and obv, you're not supposed to swallow the mouthwash...). My brother always says hey you wont chew on a strip of bacon and then throw it out.. same shi' with mouthwash. :S
