Remember, it is probably more important to 'wash' away the oils rather than kill the bacteria. The oils are from which bacteria/germs/etc thrives.

Here is MayoClinic on washing hands properly:

How to wash your hands

It's generally best to wash your hands with soap and water. Follow these simple steps:

    - Wet your hands with running water.
    - Apply liquid, bar or powder soap.
    - Lather well.
    - Rub your hands vigorously for at least 20 seconds. Remember to scrub all surfaces, including the backs of your hands, wrists, between your fingers and under your fingernails.
    - Rinse well.
    - Dry your hands with a clean or disposable towel or air dryer.
    - If possible, use your towel to turn off the faucet.
