    Hi dena

    I have been using the wet ones since January and have had great success. At some point someone podted that they sourced face wipes with the benzethonium chloride in them in Canada. I managed to get these wipes and started using them yesterday. So far so good. They are cheep but they definatly are more gentle and it's great to be able to use a wipe all over my face again. It doesn't say how much of the ingredient is in them though. They are called Mireda wipes and cost would you believe $1.25 .

    Jamin, the wipes seem to be helping my eyes a lot.  I am careful not to get the wipe "in " my eyes. it's nice to find something that helps.  smile  Dena

    Hello  everyone.  Do you have this problem?  I am doing well during the day with my eyes.  No itching no burning, as I continue to use the wet ones.  Rarely even need to use eye drops.  I'm so glad, I was spending a fortune on them.  However during the night my eyes are so swollen and uncomfortable, they wake me up and I need to put drops in them.  Anyone have any idea why this is happening?  thanks,  smile  Dena

    I am having success with the wet ones. In fact put eye make up on for the 1st time in months.

    Had to buy off amazon, they came from the USA. So not cheap. But worth every penny

      It's great isn't it Linda to feel normal again! I bought them from us as well but I got 5 big tubs forabout 30€. Best money I ever spent. Someone In the forum mentioned face wipes that she bought in Canada that have benzethonium chloride in them and My nephew was going to canada so he brought me home 6 packets and the are working for me. I use them at night to remove make up and wet ones in the morning.

      I am so glad that they are working for you. I have been using them for approximately 2 months now and have reduced from 4 times to 3 times daily. In another week or two I plan to reduce to twice daily. They are gentle and if you are like me, I don't even have to do anything else. Hot compresses are a thing of the past and so are shampoo scrubs. Life is good again. I hope allot of people will find them and use them with success. They won't break the bank either. Here in Canada they are sold at Dolorama, but maybe in other countries they can be found in different stores also.
