Q Tips


I know we're not supposed to stick anything smaller than our elbow in our ear, but come on! Is my eardrum really gonna rupture? Is earwax really going to be smashed in there so much that I go deaf? I'm gonna need concrete evidence before I stop one of my favorite daily activities!

  6. You're silly,we still use qtips to clean our ears. But nothing feels as good as doing a good ear candle cleaning. YOu can get them at the health food store. It's amazing how much wax comes out. Just another fun and exciting activity for FHE!

  9. I am a Q-tip addict and have made a deal with myself that I can only clean my ears once a week. If I do it more I get middle ear infections that KILL! I must be a digger or something.

  11. Thanks for the comment. We are in fact LDS! What ward are you in? Where in Utah are you from? Don't worry I'm a Q-tip addict also, but receive many warnings from my husband. He's an audiologist and has seen lots of Q-tip injuries! :) Let me know how you like Aquarena Springs.
