tifanso 500 Count Natural Wooden Double Round Cotton Swabs for Ear Care | Soft Absorbent Cotton Tips, Sturdy Wooden Sticks, Cruelty-Free, Includes Storage Box, Multi-Use for Makeup & Home Cleaning

This is the second time I am buying this product. It is excellent product. Good packaging strong swabs yet soft tips.

Great value especially if you prefer the kind with a firm stick that aren't bendable and flimsy.

These are good cotton swabs. The cotton is tightly and properly wound/affixed to either end of the stick; so they don’t start falling apart as soon as you start using it. The wood sticks on the ones I’ve used so far have been sturdy, which means they’re safe. They don’t break and splinter in use. I also appreciate the container they’re in, which is better than the paper-backed containers you can’t re-close from other brands. They’re packed tightly when they arrive, which is great; but here’s a hint: use a tweezer to remove the first few from the new package. This keeps you from touching multiple swabs while trying to get your fingers in to remove a single one. Since a major brand stopped making wood stick swabs years ago, (for my “safety”, but I use them for multiple things outside of personal hygiene, and paper or plastic sticks just don’t cut it), I’ve bought them from other companies and have usually been disappointed. I’m not disappointed with these. These are good quality swabs. Well made. Conveniently and protectively packaged. Can’t go wrong with these!

Not all cotton swabs are created equal. These don’t unravel instantly or break at first contact. Good value for the count. Nothing fancy, but they do what they’re supposed to.

As advertised

Got these to use with scent oils to do some scent work with my dogs. Worked well.

I think I damaged by ear by cleaning it with these, because these wooden sticks do not bend, and I was using the same kind of pressure I am accustomed to using with the leading brand. Yes, I know you’re not supposed to stick them inside your ear canal, but who listens to that? Especially when you want to put the cotton in there to get the water out. These also have noticeably less cotton than the leading brand. So to me, the discomfort is not worth the few pennies of savings. But I imagine these would be perfect for arts and crafts.

I absolutely love these qtips. I have been using them for years, they are inexpensive and don’t come apart as you’re using them. Highly recommend!

Very strong stick. Just as I wanted.
