Would eye lash glue work? You can get eye lash glue anywhere. Getting the ostomy glue is more difficult to obtain - I think.?.
(Just read the thread.). Thanks!
Sometimes I go back and read older threads just to see what turned up...
Yes, you can use eye lash glue. If you do though, make sure you buy the kind that is intended to attach strips of lashes not the stuff for single lash application. I've used it a couple of times when I didn't order ostomy adhesive early enough and ran out when I was helping someone post. It actually lasted longer than any of the ostomy products--kept the breathe rite strips in for almost three weeks. The only problem with the eye lash glue is that most of it runs around $5 or more for a very small tube (about 1/16 oz.) and even with the exorbitant shipping fees the ostomy products like Skin Bond or Torbot are still only around $20-$25 for a 4 oz can. I get all of the adhesives from Allegro Medical Supplies--google that for the web site.
And I'd sure like to know how the heck Zephyr managed to keep the Walgreen generic strips in for so long with no additional glue? I use the Walgreen generics for specific types of ear tip problems but they are a little shorter than the Breathe rite strips so I don't use them for everything. But the puppy owner who tried to put them in without additional adhesive had no luck getting them to stay--they'd last a matter of hours and the pup would shake her head and they'd be dangling.
