Q-TIPS SWABS Cotton Club ct, 625 Count, (Pack of 3)

What can I say? They are the standard Q-tips I have been using for the last don't-know-how-many years. They rock! The great thing about these is that you get the three packages in one shipment: a total of 1875 Q-tips, that way you have the option to use up to 4 Q-tips per day for 468.75 days before you run out. The thing I love about these is that they are very sturdy, compared to pretty much any knock-off. The central stick is made of rolled up paper (biodegradeable), and the tips are covered in soft cotton. I think over the last decade of sticking to this brand, I've had maybe 2 cotton tips fall off or partially detach: this is something to consider, as we typically use the Q-tips to clean the ear canal (even though we're not supposed to, people!) and don't want something to get stuck up in there. While the Q-tips are by no means a sterile product, they are indeed clean enough to use for a variety of tasks such as fine product application on the body (cleaning piercings, topical medication application) and, what I use them mostly for, makeup. I have found that the Q-tips don't really get the frayed fibers during makeup application like some of the other brands, and something about the way the soft cotton is arranged on the ends makes it easy to apply and remove things like eyeshadow and concealer. The number of Q-tips in this package is just perfect at the price you are paying (though it is an add on item), which is a bonus. I found that these Q-tips I ordered from Amazon are exactly the same quality as the ones I typically bought at Costco or Target--no difference whatsoever, except for the price, of course, and would recommend this online alternative to purchasing a product you are no doubt already buying to anyone.

Have tried several discount chain swabs and felt like Goldilocks every time... one cheap swab was just too sparse at the tip, another started unraveling at the thought of being used, and a third brand's plastic stem just plain ol' felt like a stick in your ear. Then I came back to Q-Tips, and truly wonder why we ever tried the others. Q-Tips have just the right amount of bend-but-don't-break to 'em, they have a proper amount of cotton, and they are definitely built to do their job. I work in cosmetics and our store just never seems to have enough supplies, so 1,000 or so are heading to work with me tomorrow (and my ladies at the counter will be sooo happy!). A couple of the packs will also be heading to our daughter in college... she came home for Fall Break intending to 'steal' a few, but we were out. Now we're not, and we promised to send them in a care package; think she expects 1,350? Ha! While most get used for typical make-up and hygiene needs, Q-Tips are outstanding for other things too. For example, our son races remote control cars and uses Q-Tips when cleaning his motors and transmissions. Additionally, my husband spends a lot of time at the range maintaining his qualifications, and he uses Q-Tips for finishing touches when cleaning the inner workings of firearms. Am very glad to have found them in bulk through Amazon's Add-on program, bringing the price equal to or less than what we paid for the discount ones. Outstanding. Q-Tip cotton swabs have been around a long time and, given their excellence, will continue to be around for a long time to come. Excellent product. Highly recommended.

Qtip brand is just the best quality cotton sticks. I’ve had Off brands and don’t even want to finish using them. Will only get this brand from now on. Off-brand cotton swabs are so tightly wound that you can’t spread and fluff the cotton with your fingernails like you can with qtip. This video is all qtips.

I can't be without this product. Q-tips is the best brand for me and they are also very sturdy. I tried others but this is the best. The only brand that matters. Important facts about Q-tips: 1) they, as previous reviewers have mentioned, have more cotton at the ends. 2) said cotton tends not to end up stuck to everything other than the Q-tip, as happens with generic brands. 3) MOST IMPORTANTLY: the stick of the Q-tip is FIRM, not folding at the mere sight of an ear canal like every store brand swab does. since most people seem to disobey Q-tip packaging's direct orders NOT to put them in their ears, I figure this information would have been more ubiquitously reviewed. but since it has not been, I'm happy to report that Q-tip brand swabs are up to whatever task, or ear canal, you care to give them.

Nobody knows how to build a Q-tip like the Q-tip people. Perfection begins with the 100% (I think) rolled paper wand and concludes with the two delicately and perfectly balanced swabs on the ends. This, is the pinnacle of cotton swab engineering. These things can be used on any project from ears to chainsaws and their performance is the stuff of legend. Don't buy that cheapo knockoff brand that gives you a super flexible, plastic wand and just enough fiber on the ends to legally call it a "swab". You need a 100% (I think) rolled paper wand that lets you get some muscle behind whatever it is you're scooping up with those voluptuous pure cotton Q-tip tips. From crusted ear wax to bar oil laden log dust on your Stihl, you only want to deal with Q-tip brand cotton swabs when it really matters. Do it right or go hit the dollar store and hope for the best. Your choice people. Make yourself proud.

These swabs are cushioned at their tips, making them gentle. Used for makeup removal around the eyes, cleaning ears, and removing excess nail polish when 'painting' my nails, this is a very decent product. I've tried the off-brands and found them lacking. The sticks bend too easily and/or the tips are not adequately cushioned. Q-tips is the brand that is consistently good. As for price, I've shopped around and find the pricing to be competitive. If you are an Amazon Prime member (annual fee) and buy a lot of products online, you can save money by having this shipped to you FREE and without tax (in my home state). By choosing to have it delivered at specific intervals, the price drops even further. With the price of gasoline going ever higher, this is one more way to save money. It prevents having to run out to a store for an item, making it even costlier.

I won't use cheap knock-offs anymore since a cheap version allowed the cotton to come off and it caused a very painful injury to my ear canal. These Q-tips are great quality with perfectly sized cotton tips, we will be ordering more in the future. Subscribe n Save saved us money over the box store, was easy to use so as not to have to battle the weekend shoppers and we didn't have to play hunt n seek since our local box store is never consistent on location within their store hence they cannot seem to make up their mind as to where to place these within the pharmacy department. Btw there are *excellent* for cleaning in tight spaces, such as Camelbak Bite Valves and the lids where the straw attaches, the tiny recesses in electronics as well as in keyboards. I use a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol where appropriate for extra cleaning power.

PROS: The heads are soft and tear-shaped. They are also white, which was a fun surprise. The stick part itself is straight, and firm. And the best thing to me is that there are TWO cottony ends and it just so happens that I have TWO ears! A total luck-out! (With luck like that, I should go to Vegas!) As an unusual bonus, inside the package all the Q-Tips were facing the same direction! Amazing that they all jiggled into just that exact position during shipping! My neighbors were very surprised as well (I dashed to their apartment to show them). In fact, they were speechless, staring at me with mouths agape. The only CON I have for this item is that when I swab my ears they get coated in this gross waxy yellow substance. Not sure what that's all about bit it's pretty nasty.

Great product and very fast delivery

耳掃除に毎日使っています。グチュグチュ耳なので耳かきより綿棒がいいのですが、高価でもコレが1番水分を吸収してくれます。 何度もリピ買いしてます。

Qtips is the best brand for Cotton Swabs. I have tried a bunch of different brands and nothing compares to it. They are solid, soft and thick. I live in Europe and since you cannot find this brand in any store, I decided to purchase it in Amazon. I am super happy with the purchase.

Top quality and original product

For my sins, I am married to an American! Having used these in the US, it is so difficult go back to any other cotton bud here. The Johnsons ones seem positively flimsy in comparison and so if we haven't had a chance to bring any back with us from the US, we try to get them on Amazon!
