Cotton swabs have become an indispensable necessity in regular body care, something we can no longer do without. Despite their simple and straightforward design, they can be used not only for cleaning the ear canals (which should be done with great care) and the nose, but also for the precise application of special cosmetic products, for makeup and manicure corrections, and for treating wounds and cuts. Since these products are used for personal hygiene, it is important to prefer those made from natural, high-quality materials.
The cotton swabs of the French brand Bocoton are packaged in a practical box. A set of 200 pieces will last for a long time. The main difference of these tools from others is that the head is made from environmentally friendly cotton, and the stem is made from dense cardboard, making them fully biodegradable. The swabs absorb moisture within seconds, and the cotton is wound so tightly that it does not unravel.
These cotton swabs are of good quality, with no loose cotton. They are convenient for removing mascara that accidentally gets on the eyelid. This is my second time purchasing them. The packaging is not very user-friendly, but since I transfer them in small portions to another container in the bathroom, it's manageable. If they are using biodegradable plastic, they could have made the entire packaging from it and included a larger note about the plastic composition.
I agree with the comments about the plastic packaging. It's a bit of a confusion. But the chopsticks themselves are excellent. Previously, with plastic chopsticks, I would clean them from cotton and collect them to recycle the plastic. Now, I can easily throw them away without feeling guilty. However, I need to find ones that come in biodegradable packaging.
I didn't really like the France Bokoton product. The packaging is plastic on top, but it is very thick, while the bottom is made of cardboard and is full of holes. The sticks inside are randomly scattered. The best option, of course, is Turkey Organic for 150 UAH, which has a cardboard packaging with 1% polyethylene on top, without any plastic. However, the Spain Masmis is twice as cheap. I will never buy plastic sticks again!
The chopsticks themselves are great. But what's the point of making an eco-product and packaging it in plastic???
I deducted one star because the packaging is not as shown in the photo and is covered with a plastic lid(!). I will never understand why eco-friendly cotton swabs are sold in a NON-ECOLOGICAL packaging.
