A Must-Have for Every Family Medicine Cabinet!
I have been using De La Cruz Gentian Violet for years. Ever since my kids were little and it has never failed me. Any time they developed blisters or mouth sores (like from stomatitis or hand, foot, and mouth disease), I would carefully apply a small amount to the affected area, and within a day or two, the blisters were completely gone. It works so quickly and effectively!What I love most is that it's gentle yet powerful, and a little goes a long way. It's definitely a product every parent should keep on hand for those unexpected minor cuts, sores, or irritations. I always make sure to have a bottle ready in my first-aid kit.Highly recommend this product, it's truly a lifesaver and one of those old-school remedies that still works wonders today!

What's old is new again... wonderful antifungal
I bought these to make the "Purple Ear Wash" (google it) for dogs. Alcohol, Gentian Violet and boric acid powder. Simple to use and very cost effective to make yourself but you can buy it premade, here, on Dropy if you prefer for a much higher price,I have a black Labrador who has had non stop ear infections for her entire life. She has had many vet visits, cleaners and creams, allergy pills, as well as dietary changes with nothing seeming to help for very long and sometimes not at all. It always comes back. Well, now we have moved to a different state that is much more humid, more often than where will lived before and this has exacerbated the problem. In my effort to help her, I recently happened upon a Labrador website where someone posted the recipe for this Purple Ear wash and decided to give it a try,So far, so good. I have been just using cotton balls soaked in the solution to clean out her ears instead of pouring the solution in her ears like the directions stated because I have done that before (with other things) and liquid seems to get trapped in her ears and takes months to disappear. Anyway... some parts of her ears are actually a healthy white color again... which I haven't seen in a long time. I don't expect miracles because she has had this problem for a decade. But I am very hopeful.As a side note, I decided to use this on my long standing on again/off again intertrigo (Ladies with large Ta-Ta's know what I am talking about lol). It has worked better than anything I have ever tried! This combined with Baza Antifungal Cream is a one-two punch.As for staining... I accidently left some of the solution in my marble sink overnight and had two big purple splotches that wouldn't wash off... I sprayed it with a bleach shower mold/mildew cleaner and let it sit for about 5 minutes and it came right off. I've also heard of people using plain rubbing alcohol and even hydrogen peroxide to remove purple stains, just depends on the surface that is stained. My point is although it does stain anything it touches, the stains usually can be removed. The better option is to be careful how you use it to eliminate/minimize staining in the first place. For example, if I ever do decide to pour the solution directly in her ear... this will definitely be done outside on our patio where she can shake her head and let it fly without fear of it staining the entire room LOL

worked on cuticle!!
I bought this because it said antiseptic. After several months I thought I would try it on a torn cuticle...you know the kind that is irritating. Well I put it on twice in twelve hr period and wow...it was gone with no pain or discomfort. It just disappeared. I've tried it 3 separate times and it has worked every time.
