Neti pot up the nose before bed didn't hurt either. Thanks, Oprah!
This stink was SO BAD that the little plastic handle on a manicure tool completely stink up not only the Q-tips in the metal box where I stashed it along with some toher tiny tools, but the box itself! The lip balm stick for some reason was unaffected, which was also in the box-- the wrapper must have been some kinda weird plastic is all I can guess. Thank goodness the chair, where some of the contaminated items sat for about 15 minutes yesterday, no longer stinks, this AM.
