Geeky, Squeaky Clean
Handheld devices are dirtier than a public toilet seat, but one local lady has the solution to keep you healthy and out of harm's way in the 21st century.

Think about your cell phone's day. Where did you set it? Now, remember all of the places you've put it or dropped it. About seven years ago, local physical therapist Jessica Pohlkamp saw all of the goop and grime that had accumulated on her phone and took herself through this thought process.

 

After spending hundreds of dollars on a Blackberry, she didn't want to damage it while keeping it clean, but nothing came to mind that would guarantee scratch-free hygiene. And so Celly Smellys was born to keep both you and your gadgets healthy.

 

You use your cell phone constantly and put it right up against your face, right by your mouth, but the average cell phone is dirtier than a public toilet seat, Pohlkamp says. So it's almost pointless to wash your hands if you just put them right back on your dirty cell phone. Celly Smellys solves that problem as antibacterial mini wipes designed specifically for electronics.

 

The wipes themselves are made from a lint-free, streak-free lens-grade polishing cloth. Before heading to market, they were tested on several different lenses and electronic screens at an LCD and ophthalmic lens lab. After several hours of continuous wiping, the cloths left zero damage on all of the products.

Besides the cloths, the solution used for Celly Smellys was tested, and it also did not damage any of the several electronic products on which it was tested. The solution is alcohol-based, which is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for infection control.

 

In addition to the safe and healthy advantages of Celly Smellys, the wipes also offer benefits for your senses as they come in three scent-sational fragrances: Berry, Colada and Melon. Pohlkamp looked to the home fragrance industry to come up with these specific choices, and Colada is her favorite. "It reminds me of being on the beach," she says.

 

Celly Smellys come in portable re-sealable packs of 15 wipes that easily can fit in a purse or laptop case. You can purchase the wipes at CellySmellys.com, Walmart.com, FYE: For Your Entertainment stores nationally. Head to FYE for a special flu-season discount from $4.99 a pack to only $1.99 for a pack of 15 wipes. So for just two bucks you can wipe away the smudges, tackle the germs and protect your electronics all while enjoying a fun fragrance.
