What’s old is new again… wonderful antifungal
I bought these to make the “Purple Ear Wash” (google it) for dogs. Alcohol, Gentian Violet and boric acid powder. Simple to use and very cost effective to make yourself but you can buy it premade, here, on Amazon if you prefer for a much higher price,I have a black Labrador who has had non stop ear infections for her entire life. She has had many vet visits, cleaners and creams, allergy pills, as well as dietary changes with nothing seeming to help for very long and sometimes not at all. It always comes back. Well, now we have moved to a different state that is much more humid, more often than where will lived before and this has exacerbated the problem. In my effort to help her, I recently happened upon a Labrador website where someone posted the recipe for this Purple Ear wash and decided to give it a try,So far, so good. I have been just using cotton balls soaked in the solution to clean out her ears instead of pouring the solution in her ears like the directions stated because I have done that before (with other things) and liquid seems to get trapped in her ears and takes months to disappear. Anyway… some parts of her ears are actually a healthy white color again… which I haven’t seen in a long time. I don’t expect miracles because she has had this problem for a decade. But I am very hopeful.As a side note, I decided to use this on my long standing on again/off again intertrigo (Ladies with large Ta-Ta’s know what I am talking about lol). It has worked better than anything I have ever tried! This combined with Baza Antifungal Cream is a one-two punch.As for staining… I accidently left some of the solution in my marble sink overnight and had two big purple splotches that wouldn’t wash off… I sprayed it with a bleach shower mold/mildew cleaner and let it sit for about 5 minutes and it came right off. I’ve also heard of people using plain rubbing alcohol and even hydrogen peroxide to remove purple stains, just depends on the surface that is stained. My point is although it does stain anything it touches, the stains usually can be removed. The better option is to be careful how you use it to eliminate/minimize staining in the first place. For example, if I ever do decide to pour the solution directly in her ear… this will definitely be done outside on our patio where she can shake her head and let it fly without fear of it staining the entire room LOL

Old school antiseptic – sting free.
Excellent antiseptic – great for open skin wounds, no sting. Stains powerfully when wet – use carefully.

It Works
I am very happy with my purchase. I was reticent to order the same after reading so many reviews talking about the product arriving in broken/leaking containers. Mine arrived so securely packed that even if the delivery person were to throw it, etc., it wouldn’t have broken. I use this to tone down brassiness in my hair color. It is the same ingredient used in the overpriced “purple” shampoo. A few drops works wonders. Use with extreme caution because it stains everything it touches. Fairly-priced. Thank you!

Use of this product for yeast infections
I used this product after taking prescription medication to get rid of a yeast infection on my nipples and in my breasts. I was on a antibiotic for mastitis and it caused a infection of yeast in my breasts. After I recieved this product I immediately put it on, and within using this product for three days straight, three times a day the yeast infection went away! I recommend this product to anyone who has troubles with yeast infections.It will turn your nipples violet, and your milk will have a tint of violet in it as well. It did however upset my babies stomach, so I am only giving this product a four star. Worked wonders for the infection, but upset babies belly. I am also a pumper, my daughter never latched on and doesn’t have thrush. Great product for yeast infections though! Would recommend it! Also if you are using this product for a yeast infection make sure to wash your nipples, before and after you feed or pump, unless of course baby has thrush than feed baby and wash after. Assure that your nipples are completely dry before applying this product. Allow it to dry onto nipple before placing pads on your breasts. Also make sure to change pads when your breasts let down! Best of luck to anyone else using this product for their babies!!!!!!

Mixed Feelings but Useful for Babies
Normally I really don’t like using chemicals on our baby. I try to be cautious and avoid things like this. Obviously, this item is not a natural item or treatment. It’s name sounds more gentle than it is, but there isn’t actually any research that proves it can cause cancer in humans.That being said, knowing this I had to make a decision. Our baby had gotten a severe yeast rash infection. We went to the doctors who gave us an ointment with it’s own side affects and risks. Nothing was helping, none of the diaper rash creams were working. She got so severe she was miserable.After applying this, she actually started clearing up quickly. It caused her rash spots to turn dark purple and fade away. Again, know the risks of using the item. For us she was safe and healed up very nicely. Don’t let it sit in skin folds very long as it can cause the skin to die supposedly, but we were careful and had no issues. I recommend it if you have a severe baby yeast infection and need to treat it. It did not hurt her and caused her no harm. I was glad to be able to treat her when her doctor couldn’t figure it out or care much about her pain.
