[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These qtips work well and seem to be no different than the ones that come in the big value packs. The plastic tub container however is a little on the flimsy side, making it somewhat difficult to snap on the lid. A thicker plastic would help with that but overall the qtips get the job done.

I always puchased Qtip brand because the paper shaft was good and rigid. The new package of them have shafts with almost no strength. They literally fold in half with only the slightest pressure, like the cheapest no name brands I always avoided. I will now purchase my swabs online. Many more options, with bamboo or stiff paper shafts. I am so disappointed. Oh, and the 3 pack we always purchased now have 1 smaller quantiy pack included. I'm tired of all of these maximize profit models these companies are taking where they either shave off a few ounces here or quantities there. This is a double whammy with quality being lowered to the cheapest generic brands. I'm buying quality online from now on, even if it costs a little more in the long run. Also, the cotton tip is smaller!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First of all, I love the convenient packaging. The lil tin makes it easier to grab a Q tip when I need one. It doesn’t take up a lot of space either like the regular box of Q tips do. They help clean my ears thoroughly and the cotton doesn’t fall apart like with other ones I’ve tried. Very effective and do the job right.

I love these cotton swabs, no other brand can compare. These are strong and I love how there are different packs you can buy. I have tried other brands and they tend to be flimsy and break easily. I've been using these for years and just love how I can find them everywhere. They are also quite inexpensive. I generally use these to clean my ears and touch up my face throughout the day. I love how I can throw this compact case in my purse and it will not take up a lot of space. I received these free to try.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-tips cotton swabs are hands down an absolute must have. This is by far the most versatile tool you'll ever own and the only brand of cotton swabs I'll ever use. For starters, love that they are affordable and are available in large quantities. The 500 and 625 count are just the perfect size for how frequently we use them. The box they come in keeps them neatly stored and offers a convenient flip tab for easy access. Q-tips offers the most durable cotton swab on the market. They never break or fall apart on me and are very sturdy and strong. They always come in handy for removing and applying makeup, applying ointments on my baby or when someone gets hurt and cleaning around the house, especially getting into those small crevices. Being scent free and gentle, they are even perfect for pet care. A must have not only at home, but also on the go. You will never find me without Q-tips. If you're looking for a safe, gentle, effective cotton swab, look no further, Q-tips are the ultimate choice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-tip is a brand I have used for as long as I can remember. This brand holds up so much better to other brands I have used. These do not fall apart easily or bend or piece off. The quality is something you really cannot find in other brands. These are soft yet firm. I like the tub this came in because it is convenient to have on the sink without taking up a bunch of space.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Who doesn’t love Q-tips? They’re very useful around the household and for beauty it packaged in a round little container, which is easy to store in any drawer or cabinet. Love the Q-tip brand. Q-tips are very soft.

I make my own cotton tip-shaped cotton balls. I have been advised to put Vaseline in my nose during dry weather to prevent nose bleeds. The problem is how to do it. Making small peanut shaped cotton balls out of cotton roles works like magic. I just form the peanut and liberally coat it with the Vaseline and insert it into my nose. It goes in as deep as required and is absolutely painless. I rub the outside of my nose a little and gently plow the peanut shaped cotton out into a tissue. I wish i could purchase a bag of these peanuts already formed.

Been using Q-tips for MANY years. Use them to take off any smudges or missed eyelid after putting on mascara and also use daily for very careful cleaning of my ears. Have also used them for numerous other projects when I need a small device for a project.

I usually buy off-brand with things like these, but none hold up to the quality that Q-Tips does. These are firm, don't fall apart when you use them, and help with everything from cleaning my laptop to the outside of my ears (don't put them inside your ears, people!!)
