[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given these to try and then to give my opinion. I love these. They are thick enough to use for what you need, they don't fall apart, and they are standing up in the container. Organized! I will continue to buy this brand over other brands. The quality is so much better!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this! Q tips have never had great packaging, but now they do. I love Q tips and this tub is great. It’s a lightweight plastic with some give to it. The lid does click in place so it doesn’t spill if knocked over. It is a full tub with no secret dead space in the middle. Highly recommend this new product!

Dear Qtip company representative, I have been using original Qtips every day my entire life and have always recommended this brand over any other brand. Why? Because all the other brands failed with the stick part of the swab. Without a good stick, it doesn't matter how much cotton is at the tip. The other brands' sticks were always bending or breaking in half when you apply the slightest pressure in order to use it. Recently, Qtip was celebrating their 100 years and all the boxes they sold of the regular Qtips have this printed all over them. I buy in bulk to last me a while and I bought six boxes of the 500 count Qtips. I am well into the second box and every single Qtip so far out of these boxes has failed my expectations of this product. The stick bends so badly every which way that I can't even use the lovely cotton tip. I will repeat my earlier statement: No matter how much cotton you have at the tip, you can't use it if the stick is not holding up! I have not changed how I use this product. I have not changed how I store this product (i.e. no more or less humid environment). I have concerns that the way the product is manufactured has changed. I am writing to find out if this is an intentional change to this product or if it is just a "bad batch" from the 100 year promotional packaging. I would appreciated it if someone could get my inquiry/concern to a person in the company who is knowledgeable enough to answer this manufacturing question. If this is indeed a new change to Qtip manufacturing then I will no longer be able to use this product, no longer recommend this product and no longer purchase Qtips. Please note I have given a 1 star rating for the current product quality problem. Normally I would rate this product at 5 stars. Also, until the product quality returns to "normal" I will not recommend this product. Sincerely, C.N.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a loyal Q-Tips customer my whole life. When I found out they had travel packs, I was so excited! It keeps them clean and fresh in my makeup bag, toiletry bag or purse. Thank you for letting me test these out for free! I'm definitely going to continue to buy this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-tips vanity tub is very cute and I loved the fact that the tub can hold all the 300 q-tips together. The q-tips are effective to clean my ears and they are made up of safe materials. I am happy that the quality is great and the packaging is amazing. It’s definitely a value for what you pay!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was expecting them to be hard or hurt my inner ear, and they did not. They are really soft and cushiony. I used them to go clean around my ear, and they didn't hurt at all. I used them on my toddler, and they said it didn't hurt that it was soft.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love q-tips even more now in their to go pack. They really make it east when you have a makeup mishap on the go. Specifically eyeliner or mascara smudges. I did receive this item for free but all opinions are my own.

I assume they’re trying to cut costs or just stopped caring about quality control. My most recent box of these compared to a few I had left over from months ago look like different products. The change is noticeable and for the worst. There’s much less cotton on the tips making them thinner than they used to be. Most of them unravel super quickly leaving cotton wherever you tried using them. With this change, I’m sure store brands and other lesser known brands are now superior to qtip. I’ve seen a lot of recent complaints with similar experiences and hope they realize they need to change back and improve.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Who says these are just for your ears? Not me! I love them to touch up or clean up my makeup when I'm out, remove nail polish, even to let me kids paint with watercolors without making a huge mess. So many uses and so easy to just bring along in my purse. I did receive a sample for testing and reviewing purposes but have used them for years and will continue to do so.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love qtips! I have very sensitive ears and they get very itchy. These are small enough that they don't hurt my ears. They also come in handy for many other tasks. I use them all the time to paint my nails, clean wounds, clean around the house and many other things.
