We’ve had our fair share of ear complications over the years, as so many families with young children will attest.

It turns out that issues like swimmers ear, narrow canals and excess wax have been (perhaps not so kindly) passed down through the generations – tales of ear infections and burst eardrums have been somewhat common on both sides of the family. Of course, these issues are mild inconveniences in the scheme of things but they are things I need to consciously be aware of, especially during summer.

I’ve tried all manner of treatments and have realised, after being told by numerous specialists and health practitioners that the worst thing you can do is stick an ear bud in your ear, regardless of how good it may feel. And the downside of ear wax buildup? Increased chance of developing glue ear and temporary hearing loss if the wax is pushed back towards the eardrum.

So, what’s the alternative?


Audiclean’s range of ear cleaning products are natural and safe options and can be used by the whole family to care for ears. Made of naturally sourced ingredients to leave ears feeling clean and clear, Audiclean softens and eliminates excess earwax without the use of harsh solvents.

The solution gently cleans with a sterile formulation of isotonic seawater that is pH balanced and free of nasties including preservatives, gas propellant and ‘freeze’ effect.

There are three products available in the range:

Audiclean Cleansing Ear Wash: to lightly cleanse ears

A gentle and natural way to clean the ear and is suitable for children and adults. A safer alternative to cotton buds, the gentle spray washes away dirt and excess ear wax using a unique seawater solution from St Malo, France which contains over 80 natural minerals. You simply spray into the ear and drain after 30 seconds. Suitable for adults and children aged from 6 months

Audiclean Ear Wax Remover: for stubborn excess wax buildup

A formula of naturally sourced ingredients to detach and dissolve wax as well as protect the ear with antiseptic eucalyptus. The soft nozzle allows you to easily fill the ear and leave the solution for 25 minutes. Rinse with Audiclean Ear Cleansing Wash for best results, this is suitable for adults and children aged three and up.

Audiclean Swimmer’s Ear: to prevent and relieve symptoms of swimmer’s ear

We love this product as its fast acting and allows the ear to dry very quickly. The micro mist spray ensures complete coverage without damaging the eardrum; it mixes with trapped water and evaporates, leaving the ear clean and dry within minutes. Suitable for the whole family aged two and up.

Audiclean is suitable for most people, including:

• Anyone that uses earbuds, earplugs, or hearing aids.
• People who work in dusty and/or dirty environments
• Children who have smaller ear canals and may be prone to swimmer’s ear and infections.
• Swimmers, divers and people who spend time in water.
• Elderly people with excess and/or dry ear wax
