Bamboo Cotton Swabs

$9.99

Five hundred of them — the swab drawer, filled for the year.

Cotton swabs are the definition of a consumable: makeup fixes, first aid, crafts, cleaning the edge of a phone case — every household uses them and every household runs out. These are cotton tips on a bamboo stick instead of a plastic or paper one, sold 500 at a time so the box in the drawer stops being a weekly thought. At under ten dollars the box works out to about two cents a swab. One standard caution, printed because it belongs on every swab page: use them on the outer ear only, never inside the ear canal.

Bamboo Cotton Swabs — FAQ

How long does delivery take?

About 3–5 business days when this item is stocked in the US; 8–15 business days otherwise. The window that applies to this item is confirmed on this page at opening, before you order, and tracking is emailed when your order ships.

Why bamboo sticks?

The stick is the part of a swab that used to be plastic in most boxes. Bamboo does the same job — firm, smooth, straight — and a 500-count box of sticks is a meaningful amount of plastic that never gets made. The cotton tips are the part your skin touches, and they are unchanged.

How long does a box last?

It depends on the household, but do the honest math: a box of 500 at a few swabs a day is the better part of a year. That is the format this store likes — buy the staple once, stop thinking about it.

What if it arrives damaged, or doesn’t arrive?

We refund or reship free, and you keep what arrived. No returns to mail, ever — see the Fault Promise above.
