Developed by a UK based optometrist, DemEx consists of a synergistic blend of a number of plant-origin ingredients developed to be specifically effective against both:

  • Demodex Folliculorum (Blepharitis/lash follicle)
  • Demodex Brevis (Meibomian gland) conditions

This foaming cleanser contains the active ingredient, T40 (4-terpineol) which is derived from tea tree oil and is most effective against Demodex.

Massaged gently in by clean fingers, the DemEx cleanser removes harmful micro-organisms from the eyelids, the lash follicles, and eyebrows. It is then rinsed off.

With a pleasant, cool sensation DemEx has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties meaning that it can also be used as a soothing anti-bacterial face wash. .

    comparison with Ocusoft foam cleanser

    I have been using Ocusoft foam cleanser for several years, but found it is unavailable at the moment. So. I bought Demex instead. But I have found it makes my eyes sting, which ocusoft does not.

    Hello Susan
    I am so sorry to read that the Demex foaming cleanser has caused stinging.
    I will send you an email for more details.
    It may be worth trying Naviblef daily foam as it contains 0.02% tea tree oil compared to 2% T40 with DemEx.

    Nice and gentle

    I use this as I have Rosacea and wanted to ensure I cleanse my eye lashes and eyebrows. I had tried a couple of other products with Tea Tree but made my eyes sting. This product is so much better and is helping me control my symptoms. Highly recommend.

    seems to do the job well

    After being diagnosed with Demodex I ordered this and treated my eyelids and eyebrows. It arrived quickly, sensibly packed, with usage instructions. I found it easy to apply, it stings slightly for me, but washes away easily with no after effects. And after 10 days I can see a definite improvement.
