100% Waterproof Ear Protection

I have very bad problems with my ears if they get a tiny drop of water in. I have tried a couple of different ear plugs but water is still getting in my ears when I shower. I'm currently using the earplugs along with duck tape. Obviously this isn't going to look too attractive on holiday lol. Can anyone recommended any plugs or bands I can use that are 100%.

Thanks

Don't know much about earplugs. Are your problems caused by retained water? We all use "swimmers ear" on a daily basis. It dries up the water in your ears. Available everywhere less than $5 a bottle.

As soon as I get any water in my ear it itches and I then get eczema in my ear which drives me crazy. I have to put Vaseline or prescription drops in which can cause my ear to block for days and/or get an ear infection which causes the canal to close up. Its all very unpleasant.

Ear putty will work but we found it sometimes needed a headband to ensure it didn't fall out especially in water parks
if you want a permanent solution you can get ear moulds made... will last for years . I think we paid about £50 for our daughter.

I have same issues.
Putty buddies were the best of a bad bunch. I still found a little water went in though. They also fell out without the headband.
A friend suggested I got made to measure earplugs but they were expensive. I just avoid swimming.
