Cliradex Towelettes - Natural Face, Eyelash & Eyelid Cleanser - Wipes for Demodex, Blepharitis, Mgd and Red Irritated Eye Lid - Tea Tree Oil Extract.

I have rosacea that affects my t-zone, eyebrow area, and eye lid/lashes. There is no cure for rosacea only managing symptoms, so it is important to understand one's triggers. Thanks to menopause, I have to start at ground zero with symptom treatment because what worked before no longer works (due to changes in hormones, estrogen... all things meno lol!). Products I've tried over the past year have been hit or miss, and some of those products have been expensive. The products would work for a week or two, and then I'd flare for no obvious reason. And the flaring would be in the same areas every time. In the past, my rosacea flares were just red patches. After menopause, it became more aggressive, and I started getting small bumps in addition to the redness. You name the rosacea product, and I've likely tried it including prescription ointment. I've been using Cliradex for over a month, and the improvement to my skin has been incredible. I'm not saying Cliradex manages rosacea. I AM saying that it clears up some of the demodex mites that were causing and/or exacerbating my rosacea and blepharitis. The redness has calmed. The small bumps have finally healed and are almost completely gone. My eyes are not as red, and by golly my freaking stubby eyelashes are fuller and longer. My face feels clean! My PM Routine: I wash with a mild cleaner. A couple of times of week I exfoliate with Skinmedica AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser. When my skin is dry, I apply a mild toner and let that set for approx. 10 mins. Next, I use the Cliradex wipes (cut in half) making sure to follow the directions on the box. They do tingle, but I've not experienced the burn that others have. I suggest tightly closing and cleaning one eyelid at a time. Wait close to a minute before opening that eye. You want the product to be completely dry. Repeat for the next eye. I let the Cliradex set for several minutes (at least 20). Then, I apply a night moisturizer (Clinique Moisture Surge). Lastly, after a few mins, I apply Laroche-Posey Double Repair Face Moisturizer. I currently use Cliradex every night but I plan to cut back to every other night soon. Just to see how my skin will react. My AM Routine: Dab my face and eyes with luke warm water to remove any peeling from the previous night's products. Apply the same mild toner. Apply TruSkin Vitamin C Super Serum and let it absorb for about 10 mins. Lastly, I apply Clinique's Moisture Surge SPF cream. If I decide to wear a foundation, I wait 10 to 15 mins to apply it. My thoughts on the Cliradex Towelettes- They smell fine. I'm used to tea tree oil and enjoy the smell. They are thick and well saturated and can be cut in half for longevity. Half is sufficient for my eyes and face, and it makes the product last longer. The towelettes are individually wrapped, making them easy to travel with and use. They could cost twice as much and I'd still consider them a good value for the money because of their effectiveness. It's important to keep in mind that managing rosacea is a lifestyle. Change pillowcases, bedding, and face cloths every couple of days. Learn your triggers (food and drink, cosmetic, environmental, stress, etc.). Wear sunscreen. Adopt a good face cleaning routine and commit to it. It will become tedious, but it is necessary. Make it a habit to not touch your face often. When you do have to touch it, do so with clean hands. Keep a skincare journal to track products and your skins' reaction to those products. You may have to revisit a product during a different season. This product is worth a try. Test a small patch of skin if you are uncertain. Best of luck!

I have struggled with blepharitis and chronic dry eye for about 15 years. I have tried: regular lid scrubs, warm compresses, omega-3 oils, Restasis, antihistamine drops, numerous artificial tear types, and "pulses" of steroid eye drops used for a few weeks every few months. My problems got worse and worse. It became impossible to wear my contacts. My eyelids were red and itchy, my eyes were painful and gritty and gunky. Then I read something about Demodex mites. I suffer also from rosacea and acne and have tried many things, some of which have helped and others not. When I read that people with Demodex have 10x as many mites as normal and tend to have acne, rosacea, and blepharitis, I immediately searched for a product to help me. I read about tea tree oil but was afraid to put the oil on my lids directly. That is very dangerous. I tried this product, which is formulated for the eyelids, instead. BUY THIS NOW if you have a similar story to mine! After just 2-3 weeks of using these every night on my lids, eyebrows, nose, cheeks, and rest of face (in that order -- lids first, then eyebrows, etc...), I am cured. No kidding!! I went from using artificial tears every 10-15 minutes all day every day to using them MAYBE once or twice per day now. My eyes feel amazing. My rigid gas permeable contacts are back in service, and feel just fine. I don't "notice" my eyes at all! Like when I was a kid! I don't need to use warm compresses. No more baby shampoo lid scrubs. No more antibiotic/steroid drops, antihistamine drops, NOTHING. Just wiping with Cliradex at night and leaving it on all night. That's it. It's magic. I'm so, so, so excited. I sound like an infomercial, but I'm that excited. And I am not a corporate plug. Just a really grateful woman who has suffered for years and years and is finally free!!! One small tiny downside -- these hurt and sting terribly. They really do. The first night, I had to sit down on my bathroom floor because my legs were shaking from the pain. I imagine that's the "die off" of a million bacteria and mites exploding as the tea tree oil extract in the wipes hits their disgusting little cells. It hurts. But every day gets a little less painful. Now I only have to take a few deep breaths. And the sting, no matter how severe, only lasts about 1 minute. One REALLY LONG minute, but really, it's just a minute. Then it fades and I don't feel it at all during the night. No problem leaving the residue on there. So I say to anyone who has my problems -- is manning up to one minute a day of pain that gets better every day worth being CURED of the hassle and pain of blepharitis and dry eyes? For me, that's a huge huge YES. I hope these never go out of production. I've already reordered. I want to use 2 wipes per day -- 1 for eyes and eyebrows, and one for face. I'm using 1 wipe now, and I'm focusing on eyes and eyebrows, with cheeks etc as an afterthought. Yet, my rosacea is already looking better, and I haven't had a big pimple since I started. I'm thinking using a fresh wipe on my face will improve the rosacea and breakouts just as much as it improved my eyelids. SO EXCITED about this!! Buy buy buy! UPDATED FEBRUARY 2016: I was asked a few times in the comments if these continue to help me. Yes, they do! I have been using 2 per day (1 eyelids, 1 face) ever since. My eye doctor told me not to stop because the Demodex will simply come back. You cannot get rid of them all, and almost every human has some. So, I faithfully use these wipes every night. They still sting, by the way. Not a ton, but it's definitely still uncomfortable. Again, though, no pain, no gain! My eyes still feel really great using these. I only have to use rewetting drops a few times a day, and mostly if I'm in on over-heated or over-A/C building. No pain, or gunk in my eyes. My skin has cleared up and looks the best it's looked since I was 10 years old. Still highly recommend buying these to try them out if you have dry eye!

I only received 20 packets. The box is not sealed and 4 has been taken out. Disappointed.

Me han mejorado muchísimo las pestañas, estas toallitas limpian súper bien sin lastimar, al contrario son tan suaves que ayudan a una limpieza profunda.

Son super suaves para la piel de los niños y limpian muy bien. Ojalá tuvieran un mejor precio.

Se siente que es concentrado en arbol de té y deja sensación de limpieza. Mi oftalmólogoe lo receto para blefaritis y me ha ayudado mucho

Hice limpieza de mis párpados con una toallita y el ardor es imposible de soportar. No recomiendo
