LastSwab™ Reusable Silicone Cotton Swabs for Ear Cleaning - Washable Q Tip & Ear Wax Remover Alternative to Single-Use - Zero Waste, Easy to Clean, Travel Case - Green

This reusable "cotton swab" is a pretty nifty and eco-friendly alternative to traditional Q-tips, especially if you’re trying to reduce waste or in a bind while still satisfying that post-shower ear-cleaning urge (since even though it says not to use it on your ears, we all know that everyone is going to). It's overall pretty functional, and well priced, for a silicone-like solution. The included storage case is compact and convenient for travel, though I do wish it locked closed a bit more securely, but that's just a nitpick, not an overall concern. The swab itself feels sturdy and well-made, I even flexed it a little and pulled on the ends and they held up fine so far. The one I got came with two different ends, one that’s more pointed and one that’s rounded like a traditional Q-tip, which was a nice surprise since that wasn’t super clear from the images. The dimples on the swab do a decent job picking up wax and providing that light scratching sensation people tend to seek, though it’s not quite a full replacement for traditional swabs if that’s your everyday habit. Still, it cleans well under running water with soap, dries easily, and is soft enough to not feel uncomfortable in the ear. All in all, it’s a clever tool that’s especially useful for travel or to have on-hand in a bind between more thorough cleanings. Would definitely recommend if you know what you’re getting, and are aiming for an easy and space saving travel solution!

I really like this reusable swab! It’s a great sustainable alternative to single-use cotton swabs and helps reduce waste. The material is soft but still sturdy enough to do the job, and it’s very easy to clean after each use. I also appreciate that it comes with a small travel case, which keeps it sanitary and makes it convenient to take with you when traveling. The turquoise color is nice too and makes it easy to find. Overall, it’s a simple but smart product if you’re trying to be more eco-friendly while still having something practical for everyday use.

Bought this on a whim unsure if I’d elect for this to be the daily driver and replace single use swabs or use it while traveling.The nubby texture makes me feel like I’m scratching an itch that I can’t otherwise get to, and I enjoy it.The texture also makes it easier to clean, just rub the old wax off and sanitize.Now that I own one, I won’t be going back to single use cotton swabs for routine use. This is just better.I deducted a star for the feel, fit, and finish. While I haven’t broke or damaged it, the swab’s shaft has an overly 3D printed vibe, is flexible in a way that I feel is less durable (perhaps I’m wrong and this flexibility is intentional), and I cannot help but worry that I’m going to lose a tip down the sink drain while cleaning it.Moreover, I don’t believe the individual parts are sold for replacement, meaning you have to buy a new unit if you break it or lose a piece. They do sell a complete replacement swab assembly so you can reuse the case, but the SKU sold on Amazon has both the beauty and ear versions of the swab, which is useless and wasteful to those who ain’t purdy.Love the sustainable packaging and environmental mission. Will look into other products from Last Object in the future.

Loved it at first!! I ordered one of these reusable swabs and it worked great, but after a while I lost it. So I ordered another, and it felt much flimsier than the first one I had, but I figured it was fine. Then, just a few weeks into using it, it broke in half during use! I was lucky nothing worse happened, but this could be very dangerous if it broke off short enough to be stuck in the ear. I was desperate and tried to use one of the halves for a while and then that broke too. So now I no longer have one to use, and am hesitant to spend money on another that might just break... The bumps on it are also pretty hard and may too rough for many people's ears, although I didn't mind. I might try a different brand.

I bought these for my husband after his Doctor advised him not to use cotton swabs to clean his ears. But my husband has used cotton swabs forever and was hesitant to give them up. Found this reusable cotton swab that's flexible and comfortable to use. You can also sanitize it after use. What an innovative idea.

Perfect for itchy ears. Does not absorb water so I still use the cotton ones to wipe away water. But for the cleaning of the ears very nice.

I recently finished up my pack of q-tips and figured it was time to switch over to a resusable. I had been hearing about the LastSwab for years online, but hadn't had the opportunity to try it until now.The swab is easy to use and feel comfortable in my ears. They aren't as soft as cotton buds, but they don't feel abrasive. The ridges also clean earwax out more effectively, so it encourages me to be gentle when using them. I cleaned the tips with soap and water and just let it air dry in the case (open).The swab is smaller than a q-tip, but I don't mind that as it makes it easier to store. My only issue is that the stem feels a bit thin, but not enough to be a real concern. We're probably better of without that extra plastic anyways.

Snapped after a few months, creating plastic waste and probably negating any sustainability benefit.

Resistente e durevole

Very pleased with these swabs. They get the job done without leaving residue. Much better than disposable cotton-tipped type.
