A-CERUMEN is an ear cleaning solution that is gentle, effective, and recommended for all the family (from the age of six months) . It uses surfactant, plant-based ingredients, and consists of two surfactants which are carefully chosen for their effectiveness and their cutaneous tolerance (Socium Acylsarcosinate and Sucrose Ester) . The first surfactant reduces the surface tension between the wax and the skin, making it easier to dissolve the earwax. It is perfectly bio-compatible with the skins keratin content and is therefore gentle on the skin. The second surfactant is a wetting agent that helps soften earwax and makes it easier to unstick it from the ear canal. It is also a biodegradable, food-grade surfactant that is very gentle on the skin.
Alpine Ear Spray is another product that allows you to clean your ears thoroughly at home. It has a special composition with the active ingredient Polysorbaat 80 and chamomile. Polysorbate 80 eliminates earwax more effectively than traditional saline solutions, and the addition of chamomile ensures that the skin in the ear canal and the ear itself is soothed.
There are different types of cerumenolytics that can be used to soften hardened cerumen (earwax) and make it easier to remove from the ear. These include oil-based compounds (e.g. olive or almond oil), water-based compounds (e.g. sodium bicarbonate), commercially produced cerumenolytics, hydrogen peroxide, and other topical preparations.
Positive aspects of A-CERUMEN and Alpine Ear Spray include their effectiveness in cleaning the ears and their gentle nature on the skin. A-CERUMEN is also non-greasy and does not require rinsing after use.
Negative aspects of cerumenolytics in general include the potential for allergic reactions or skin irritation, and the risk of damaging the ear canal or eardrum if not used properly.
In summary, A-CERUMEN and Alpine Ear Spray are ear cleaning solutions that use surfactant, plant-based ingredients and Polysorbaat 80 and chamomile, respectively, to effectively clean the ears while being gentle on the skin. Cerumenolytics in general can be effective in softening earwax, but there are potential risks associated with their use.
