Can I use hand sanitizer to disinfectant my ear before piercing?

Genuine question bcs idk... I bought the piercing kit but forgot the alcohol pad. I'm too lazy to go out to buy alcohol pad. I googled around and still no answer. I heard it will dried the skin and idk if that's a bad thing? It's for prepping the skin only, I won't use it for regular cleaning tho. So, yes or no?
