Boots Cotton Buds Reviews

I bought a pack of these last weekend from Boots. I needed them for my baby. I chose these ones because they are 100% cotton tip so thought they would be good and natural for her. I know health visitors recommend using just cotton wool and water but I don't find that very effective at keeping my babies ears clean I find ...  Read the complete review

Ah, Boots cotton buds, simple, necessary, affordable. What are they for? It depends what you need to do, everything from cleaning your ears (you know not to jam it in there, right?), applying various forms of makeup, wiping off various forms of makeup, tiding up the messy bits of polish that get on the cuticles of your ...  Read the complete review

I always like to have a box of cotton buds on my dressing table, as I find they come in handy at the best of times. When I went to Boots to buy some supplies, I picked up their own brand of cotton buds as I remembered I was running low on my usual ones. I can't say I'm particularly fussy when it comes to something as simple as cotton ...  Read the complete review

I like to keep a box of cotton buds in the house at all times but its one of those things I always forget to buy when I'm doing a big shop in Asda or Morrisons. I grabbed a box of these when I was in town from Boots for just £1 on offer. I think they're normally about £1.20. I can't moan, £1.00 for 200 cottonbuds plus your 4p in ...  Read the complete review

I use these ear buds to clean inside my ears. I know that you shouldnt but I just cant resist cleaning inside my ear canal. I live in the city and so my ears are constantly dirty however much I clean them. I usually do this every 3 or 4 days including my outer ear. I find that once you have used one end of the stick you must not use it ...  Read the complete review

I usually use Johnson's Cotton Buds - simply because they were the first cotton buds I ever tried and I was satisfied with them and so never branched out into another brand. However, I recently sent my partner shopping and on the list was cotton buds and they came back with another brand, namely Boots own brand Cotton Buds. They cost ...  Read the complete review

They come in a round plastic container with a lid on top to keep them clean and they are ...  Read the complete review

As I wear make-up everyday it is only normal that I am going to get make up somewhere I don't want it or make little mistakes around the eyes when applying it. I would always attempt to wipe away the mistakes with eye make-up remover on a cotton wool ball, but would often wipe away more than needed because of the size of the cotton wool ...  Read the complete review

Before I discovered my preferred brand of Johnsons cotton buds, I was a regular user of these Boots cotton buds. For reasons that I'll outline in this review, I prefer numerous other brands now and would be rather loathe to buy these again unless I couldn't find an alternative option. THE PACKAGING The main reason that I ...  Read the complete review

The thing with Cotton buds is that you take them for granted when you don't need them and when you do, you often end up searching through the house high and low to find them. Even when you do remember where you ever so safely stashed the blooming things, you more often than not find that some wicked, thoughtless git has found them before ...  Read the complete review

Boots Cotton Buds - £1.08 for 200 Cotton Buds I recently tried Boots Cotton Buds as an alternative to my usual brand which is Johnsons Cotton Buds. I decided to try the Boots brand because the Johnsons Cotton Buds worked out to be exactly £1 more expensive for the same number of cotton buds. Firstly going by the ...  Read the complete review

I don't think there is a house hold in the UK that doesn't have a tub of cotton buds, they are just one of the essential things of life these days. I used to use one of the leading brands cotton buds, but I one day tried Boots own brand, when I was trying to save some money on the things I had to buy. I have no problem with ...  Read the complete review

I've been buying Johnson's cotton buds for quite some time now as they've been available at our local pound shop - unfortunately they didn't have them on my last visit so I popped into Boots to top up my supply. They're pretty good actually although I paid £1.08 for 200 (also available in 100s for 60p) although I wasn't that ...  Read the complete review

Cotton buds in our home always used to be Johnsons Cotton buds but recently we have changed to Boots cotton buds and not just because they are a bit cheaper but because we really do believe they are better. The original reason for my wife buying these was that they were on offer at only 89p for a box of 200 but we are still ...  Read the complete review

These are good value for money. Your not paying a little extra for a hard case or a brand name which you don not really need. The cotton buds themselves are pretty much standard. The end does not fall off in your ear so you can be thankful and safe about that. The rod holding the two ends together is sturdy, unless you put an unlikely ...  Read the complete review

I use cotton buds for everything..... ear cleaning, between babies toes, my wife uses them for make up application etc. I usually stick to Johnsons because i know that they are decent - my wife hates when the cotton tips go fluffy when your using them, she says it can really mess up your eyeshadow? But, Boots were out of Johnsons and i ...  Read the complete review

I always have cotton buds around as I use them for so many things. They are great to use if you smudge your eye make-up, you can just wipe the small area rather than taking it off the rest of your face as you do with other things. They are also great for cleaning, when you can't get that last little bit of dirt out of a corner or ...  Read the complete review

These Boots cotton buds are 100% pure cotton tips and they have plastics handles in the middle with a cotton bud at each end.
