This product is safe, clean, and one of the best qualities to use. I recommend this product to friends and family. You should give it a try as well.
Still my favorite, but not quite like they used to

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-tips are a must-have in my house. They’re soft, sturdy, and way better than the off-brand ones that fall apart when you touch them. I use them for makeup clean-ups and random little cleaning jobs, and they always come through. I gave four stars instead of five because the cotton doesn’t feel as thick and fluffy as it used to. It's not a dealbreaker, but I miss the old-school quality. Still, I always keep a big box stocked because nothing compares.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There is no better cotton swab than the Q-tips brand. The amount of cotton on the tip is the perfect amount for a variety of uses. I use them all the time. I use them for applying or fixing my makeup, first aid, and to clean electronics. They have no scent which is great for someone like me who is sensitive to smells. I even carry Q-tips in my purse just in case of an emergency. I will always have Q-tips brand swabs in my house.
Q-Tips are the best!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-Tips Cotton Swabs are truly the gold standard! I’ve tried other brands in the past, but nothing compares to the quality and durability of Q-Tips. The cotton is soft, full, and securely attached—never flimsy or unraveling. The sticks are sturdy without being too rigid, making them perfect for everything from gentle personal care to precise household uses. I love how versatile they are—great for makeup touch-ups, cleaning small spaces, applying ointments, and of course everyday hygiene. It’s one of those products I always keep stocked in the house because they’re simply reliable and consistently high quality. If you want a cotton swab that doesn’t bend, break, or skimp on cotton, Q-Tips is the only choice. Five stars all the way!
Sturdy and worth the value

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are nice and sturdy and work for all things. I like to use them for my windows to clean in the cracks. They stay together very well and don’t fall apart. The amount that come in a package are worth it.

Q-Tips Antimicrobial Cotton Swabs are a smart upgrade from the classic version. They have the same soft, cushioned cotton tips we all expect, but with the added benefit of an antimicrobial agent in the paper sticks. That extra layer of protection gives me more confidence when using them for personal care and small household tasks. I use them for makeup touch-ups, cleaning around nails, and tidying up small spaces like keyboards. The cotton is tightly wound and doesn’t easily unravel, which makes them reliable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-Tips are our go to brand!! The tips seem softer and more cotton than other brands. The stick is also sturdier. They do a great job cleaning ears, wiping off mascara, makeup and other duties!

That feeling when they go in your ear is amazing. Unscented qtips are the way to go to avoid headaches, but if you get scented you ale rice candles. Packed nicely easy to grab

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how easily I can fix makeup mistakes with Qtips! I’ve used other cheap brands before and nothing ever compares to the Q-Tips brand. Definitely worth every penny, because these don’t fall apart on you like those other ones! They don’t have any scent, as they shouldn’t. Overall, love this product!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely essential and irreplaceable. I keep these on my countertop for makeup, cleaning, and personal care. And only Q-Tip branded swabs will do. I don’t care about brand for cotton balls or hair ties, but this essential item is always, always branded. Perfectly amount of cotton and it doesn’t shed or fall apart when I’m detailing my manicure with acetone or cleaning buildup from hairbrushes.
Great quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love q-tips! I use them for cleaning up my eye make up, getting in crevices on my devices when they need a clean, and for other odds and ends. A reliable brand where the cotton stays on the swab and is soft and scent-less.

Q-tips have the perfect texture — soft, plush cotton that feels gentle yet stays firmly in place, making them ideal for both beauty and household use. They have no noticeable scent, which I love because it keeps them versatile for everything from makeup touch-ups to first aid. The classic packaging is sturdy and easy to open, with enough swabs to last a long time. For the price, the value is unbeatable — you truly get premium quality at an affordable cost. In terms of effectiveness, they’re unmatched: precise for detail work, absorbent for cleaning, and durable so they don’t bend easily. Q-tips are a tried-and-true essential that I’ll always repurchase.
