Washing Bruder Eye Compress
For those who use a Bruder eye compress, how often do you wash it? I handwash and air dry mine whenever I notice it getting a bit dirty, but was wondering if I should be doing it at regular intervals?
I wash mine when I notice it is getting soiled. The instructions recommend hand washing but I have found that it washes just fine in the washing machine. I do put it in a lingerie bag to wash and let it air dry. To keep mine from getting so soiled I use a thin washcloth between the mask and my skin.

Handwashing the eye compress is hard with arthritis and I would dread having to do it. Thanks for the tip! I do protect it in a lingerie bag and hang to dry. It works for mine. Sharon, patient leader
I use Bronner's organic soap unscented and use my fingers to wash it. I wash it when I can see that it's visibly dirty, about every 2 weeks for me! thanks for the advice!
