Best cotton buds I’ve ever used 👍🏼
I’ve been a Muji fan for more than 2 decades, so I basically grew up with their products, but these black cotton buds are on another level. Here’s why I keep repurchasing them: The black tip is a total game-changer. Ear wax shows up so clearly against the dark color, no more guessing if the bud is actually clean or if I’m just smearing things around. It’s weirdly satisfying. 1. The spiral/swirly tip actually grabs and holds onto earwax way better than regular cotton buds. It feels like it “catches” everything instead of just pushing it around. 2. The tip is slightly smaller and more tapered than most brands, which makes it much more comfortable, especially if you have narrower ear canals. No poking or discomfort at all. 3. The price is completely reasonable for 200 pieces of this quality. You’re paying for the thoughtful design, not just cotton on a stick. Bottom line - If you’re someone who cares about cleaning your ears properly (and enjoys seeing the proof on the bud), these are 100% worth it. I’ll never go back to white cotton buds again (they feel primitive now). Highly recommend!

Works great!!! Can see what it is picking up
Because of the color, I can see what comes out of my ears. I know it is gross, but I can see it works well! Hahaha. The design of the tip makes is very effective.

Great for Makeup Application
I love these for makeup application most, they work very well for wiping under or around eye for mascara,, eye shadow, eyeliner, etc. They aren't quite as puffy/absorbent as normal cotton buds / q-tips so I don't use them much for my ears and my husband didn't like them for his ears. I know they say it's bad to use them in your ears but.... we do lol. But they are great quality and great for makeup like I said and I will continue to buy them. Good quality for the price!

Compact, firm, and don’t fall apart like cheap cotton swabs
Compact, firm, and don’t fall apart like cheap cotton swabs. The black tips make dirt easy to see.

Nice firm cotton bud
These are nice cotton buds that are wrapped more tightly than the white ones I normally use. They seem smaller as a result. They would be perfect for crafts or makeup because the tight wrap allows for a precision that is hard to achieve with the looser fluffier white buds. For my ears, I prefer the softer white ones. Also it is hard to see if there is any ear wax.

Love these. The black color lets you see more ...
Love these. The black color lets you see more of your ear crud so you can see how much gunk you're cleaning out. Also as another reviewer stated, these are STURDY! I tried a different cheaper brand of black cotton swab and those were not so great, they were too flimsy and I ended up using up twice as I normally would since I would bend them so often. I even resorted to gripping the cutting swab closer to the end so it wouldn't bend. Didn't have that bendy issue with the MUJI ones so I'm ordering these again.

Best cotton swabs for ear cleaning & scratching
These are so much better than the typical flimsy cotton swabs. The shafts are nice and stiff so they don't collapse. The ribbing on the ends helps remove wax and feels amazing to scratch the inside of your ear with. When you're finished, the black color makes it easier to see the fruits of your labor.

Nice, same as reg qtips and way more expensive
Nice but really no different than a regular qtip, and way more expensive on a price per qtip basis. If you need black for your decor these are perfect. If you don’t then don’t bother. The ridges aren’t more effective at removing wax or massaging the ear.

WHERE have these been all my life!? Best invention since sliced bread! A very sturdy swab in black that I have yet to find any remnants stick to my eyelash glue or to fall apart. Very well made and perfect for putting on eyelashes rather than using white swabs! Little white fuzz remnants everywhere including IN my eye vs these little miracles! IF a fuzz was to come off the swab, go into your eye, you’d be able to see it immediately and remove it ASAP before your eyes watered up and lashes fell off. Truly excellent invention and I’m just mad I didn’t think of it first! This is definitely going to be a staple in my makeup bag! Well made, well packaged. You won’t be disappointed! Use the white ones for ears etc. Save these for important eye fixes and touch ups!
