Japan Health and Personal - Black cotton swab 2WAY type 200 pieces *AF27* by Harumi Corporation

Love to have this. Strong enough to clean up ears

Didn’t expect to care this much about cotton swabs, but here we are. These are noticeably thicker and sturdier than regular Q-tips. The sticks don’t bend around, which makes them feel way more controlled when you’re using them. They’re black, which is actually really useful, you can clearly see what you’re cleaning. The cotton itself is a little more firm but I find this to be a benefit as they don't wear out as fast as softer options. The round plastic container is also much better than the usual paper box, the size is perfect to just leave out on the counter. Finally the price is just right for me to justify replacing my previous choice.

Used it for years. It's a little on the rough side but perfect in cleaning waxy years. Good product.

So I have some mixed feelings. On the one hand, they are a lot more rough and solid than I expected and don't really soak water up very efficiently but at the same time, when it comes to cleaning, as others have stated, they perform very well and the color makes it easy to see exactly what you're pulling out of your ears. They are also extremely sturdy

I hate AMERICAN Q-tips there paper sticks suck. These are amazing the black color shows your cleaning progress easily.

I first discovered these awesome things at a pharmacy in Osaka because I "luckily" forgot to pack cotton swabs for a multi-week stay in Japan. At first I wasn't thrilled about spending what seemed like a lot for a relatively small-count container, but then I loved them so much that I bought several more containers to bring back home. After I eventually went through those, I was thrilled to find the product available on Amazon! I'm very particular about swabs and have always stuck with a particular brand because I find most to be too flimsy to feel like they're cleaning my ears effectively. These black swabs are so firm/sturdy that you'd almost think they're made of wood, and the cotton parts are very dense; the shafts won't bend and the tips wont simply 'squish' when extra pressure is applied. They make my old brand of choice feel beyond chintzy by comparison. Their sturdiness also lends itself very well to various "non-ear" cleaning tasks, as you can dig into small spaces much more aggressively than "regular" cotton swabs would handle. These things are worth every penny, and will be the only swabs I buy as long as they remain available. Caveat: If your ears are rather sensitive or you generally prefer really soft tips on swabs, you'll likely find these to be very uncomfortable.

Ok

I don’t use regular q-tips anymore. These are awesome! The color allows you to see all the gunk that’s collected by the cotton and it seems like it does a better job than normal swabs. It’s a good size for me and works well

Works not bad. Change from the classic q-tips

片方だけ螺旋になっているし、黒のためよく見えて便利です。耳の穴が小さいのですが痛くなくちょうど良いです。

芯もしっかりしてるし、硬めで使い易い。

Horrible product, doesn’t work well at all. Kinda painful to use too.

天然成分の効果は感じませんが、使用感は良いです。 謳い文句どおり汚れはハッキリ見えますし、芯が硬いので掃除中にへたれる事はありません。
