Hand sanitizer is not meant to be wiped off. You are supposed to rub your hands together until the hand sanitizers is your hands are dry.
The issue with hand sanitizers is somewhere to some, since they are a disinfectant they are better than soap or should be used more often than they should. Having typically 99% IPA is an issue because there are bacteria that can live in high alcohol environments. When cleaning and disinfecting microbiology labs and work areas, a solution of 70% IPA is used because of that possibility.
