Would this be good as a handkerchief? Thank you everyone! To be a bit more clear, I'm looking for an alternative kleanex for my nose :( allergies are a killer while backpacking and I run out of kleanex fast!

Maybe. Depends on what you are trying to soak/ wipe up. Sweat, tears, other non viscous liquids? Prob will work well for that. Nose fluid and other viscous liquids? Prob not so much

I don't really think so. Its much thicker than a normal handkerchief and not as soft. Its a great product, just probably not for this purpose

Youd be better off with just nose plugs. I'm thinking that you'd probable loose a mask with that activity.

I am a master's level nurse and I say definitively NO !Besides the smell is really quite dreadful !Even if you tried to use this at bed-time so others are not bothered by the smell -I don't see how you could sleep with that smell so close to your nose .Also when used for the intended purpose it almost functions like a distraction because it burns !The skin near the eyes is very delicate - much too delicate for something this strong .If you insist on trying , only buy one tube .You would be better off asking a dermatologist for a product to use .Then in addition to being safe you would have a possible tax deduction for the visit and also for whatever the doctor recommends RX wise .

Most of the time I have expienced relife from my stuffy nose after using this. However do not expect this to cure the reason for your stuffy nose. If your sick or have allergies, this is not a medication or permanent cure. Youd obviously need to get whatever is causing your stuffy nose under control too.I do highly recommend this though! Works like a charm and great to have on hand in your medicine cabnit.

honestly, they didnt stay on my nose for too long. they slip off. depending on your nose size & if youre oily too. I got this to slim my nose a bit, but it only opens to a certain point.

KearyI have not used my Woody Knows around second hand smoke, but I do know I can be around many other things that I am allergic to and have no problems. It amazes me that I can now go places that I couldn't for years with my Woody Knows. Make sure you read the directions and get the right size to fit your nose. If its the correct size you will be more protected. Also their customer support will help you. Best of Luck!

Well, I tried the squeeze bottle of filtered water and uniodized salt (warmed up of course), and it worked fine.That said, I just tried the NeilMed Sinus Rinse kit, and ooh la la, it's fantastic! No nasal burning at all, and it really feels good. I'm impressed. I still will use the drugstore squeeze bottle of filtered water if I'm stuffed up on a trip, but otherwise NeilMed is great!

Hay also.....I just noticed that Amazon has them on sale right now for $13.20! The Enisyl-F Lysine ones, that is!!! And I wondered something else for you.....my Vet, a long time ago, said that I could ALSO use a mild over the counter eye drop whenever needed. Just ask your Pharmacist, they will be able to tell you which one to use!!!

For myself I would take an extra to be on the safe side. (And to be honest, I always overpack.) You don't need a lot of product to cleanse. I think I use more than usual because I remove my waterproof mascara with it. (Works GREAT for that, btw.) If you don't wear a lot of makeup, one bottle should be fine.

What?? Companies dust TP w/corn starch?? Yikes! I don't think this is dusted with anything, as I have a pretty sensitive nose and this is all we use in the house, instead of tissues. I can't use other products (like puffs or other "mainstream" brands of TP & tissues) b/c of the "dust" factor that just bothers me and makes me sneeze. Maybe it's been corn starch all this time with those other brands...!

It would be great for organizing pantyhose! Each circle is covered, so holder will not put a run in your hose. I will order another one for my tights and hose...thanks for the idea.

Yes. It has helped me a lot. It basically creates a relatively clean pocket of air under your nose. Of course, a few things are likely to slip through, but I find it a dramatic improvement.

Please be careful using this product!!I called allergen. Only Dr's should sell this! I was burnt! I have very tuff skin too!

I have allergies too. I use this for dusting everything in the home. It makes quick work of dusting large and small areas. It fits into small spaces. I love it. I still go over thing once in a while with Windex, but for weekly cleaning it works great and is very fast. I find I do a much better job of dusting with this brush. Things like doors and around windows that I did once in a blue moon I do about every other week now since it is so fast.

I've only used it for compression hose, but it works well for that. The only problem I've had is being active on warm, humid days, when the adhesive may detach. Since your forehead and scalp won't be moving as much as my thighs, and gravity will be working for you instead of against you (unless you're a high-wire aerialist) I don't anticipate any problems. When you want to get it off, it comes off without much discomfort, unlike spirit gum which once took a hefty hank of my hair with it.

i use it when snowmobiling to protect against chapping. i also use it when my nose gets raw from blowing it with allergies or cold.
