The $4 ‘must-have’ from Kmart Australia is back in stock after selling out for months
Kmart has quietly brought one of its best-selling items back to Australian stores – and shoppers can’t believe their luck.
Called the only way to be “germ-free cute,” the $4 OXX Bodycare mini hand sanitizers are so popular that they are rarely out of stock.
And every time the shelves are restocked, the product goes viral again, with fans descending on the nearest store to get their hands on one.
The hand sanitisers are available in four scents and come in ‘cute’ pastel colored bottles with clips so you can easily attach them to your bag.
The sanitizers are a popular dupe of the Power Mist hand sanitizers, which retail for $10.
But the colorful packaging proves to be even more attractive to consumers than the original, which has a stylish white casing.
The Kmart version has a pink box for the grapefruit-scented sanitizer, pastel orange for peach, mint green for coconut and red for watermelon.
‘I actually like them better than the original’, Kmart fan Michael Jaimie said after doing a test run with the sprays.

In his video, Michael said the four sprays felt moisturizing, although he wasn’t convinced they were completely disinfectant as they didn’t contain much alcohol.
After testing each scent, he declared grapefruit his favorite, as it was the strongest scent, and also called the pink container the “cutest.”
Kmart Australia quickly posted the viral video showing the misters are back in stock.
But it seemed some customers were too slow and missed out on the basic purchase.
“I’ve literally been to seven Kmarts in Western Australia and I still can’t find them,” one woman complained.
“They’re sold out everywhere,” shouted another.
A third echoed: ‘My Kmart is never out of stock.’
Kmart’s social media team quickly responded to dissatisfied customers’ comments.
‘We’re so sorry. We have seen many popular lines sell quickly! They will be back soon, thank you for your patience,” they wrote.
