Paper stick 10/10
I ONLY use the Paper stick Q tips - because they feel natural and not pokey like other types... These are just as you order - Paper stick

My go-to
I made a silly mistake of purchasing store brand one time because they were cheaper and will never make that mistake again. The Qtip brand is the best I have found. The cotten is fairy tight though I can add water on them and manipulate it to make them pointed when needed. I do not find they unravel the way other brands do.

WHAT Happened???
I’ve used QTips for over 73 years, and I would’ve never considered any other brand because QTip was a quality product without compromise. Even during the pandemic, the quality remained unchanged. Unfortunately it seems corporate greed has finally seeped into the familiar blue box! As I recently began using a new box, I was truly shocked to realize that the cotton sticks were so flimsy that they no longer maintained their rigidity even under the slightest pressure!!! Obviously you have a novice brand manager that doesn’t have any idea what product specifications have made QTips a venerable favorite in households like ours for generations! I am EXTREMELY disappointed in the decline of this product and will begin looking for alternative brands. I am laughably “brand loyal”, but your attempt to save money by compromising the product has sent this loyal consumer looking for alternative brands.

Just ok
These should be more sturdy and not bend so easily.

Do better
I use only Q-tips because they were the best they did not bend when you used them like the other brands, but I'm so disappointed in the quality of Q-tips now. I use them every day and every day I get more disappointed because the stick bends when you use them and I don't use a lot of pressure I'm cleaning my ears I don't want them to bend.

Reliable, affordable and handy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-tips are one of those simple things I always keep stocked around the house. They are incredibly versatile from cleaning small spaces and touching up craft projects tool applying ointment and make up. I love them for makeup application and touchups, especially when I need to clean up eyeliner or apply products with a little more precision the cotton stay securely on the stick. They are soft and they don’t fall apart easily like some cheaper brands, I would definitely recommend.

Good
It seems the Qtips brand is skimping a little on the amount of cotton used. But, I feel like store brands use even less.

Qtips have cut quality down to the bare minimum
I’ve used q-tips my entire life of 60 + years. But I’m done. Y’all have cut the quality so much that it’s like putting a stick with no padding at all in my ear. I’ll find a better product.

Not the best quality (especially compared to the past). Swab’s cotton ends fall apart easily.

Multi-use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-Tips have multiple uses. I find a way to use them daily. Most people use them to clean ears, but I also use them to touch up makeup, clean the house, and make art!
