Beside above, can I use contact lens solution to clean my piercing?

DO NOT USE contact lens solution or similar to clean your piercing – these contain preservatives and chemicals not suitable for the skin. DO NOT USE any bottled re-sealable piercing solutions like those from Claires Accessories or online.

In this way, what can you use instead of ear piercing clean? Use a cotton swab (Q-tip) with salt water to clean the area around the hole twice a day. Some recommend using hydrogen peroxide, rubbing alcohol, or antibiotic ointment but salt water disinfects and is less damaging to the skin tissue.

Furthermore, can you use Listerine to clean piercings?

Tongue, Cheek and Lip Piercings

Rinse with mouthwash for 30-60 seconds after consumption of anything other than water. If Listerine is too harsh it may be diluted, or use teaspoon sea salt to an 8oz glass of water.
