Cotton swabs: they're often used for 5 seconds, but with plastic handles, can stick around on our planet for 500+ years! Unlike plastic swabs, these Biodegradable Cotton Swabs from The Humble Co. are made from biodegradable and compostable materials that easily break down without harming our planet. Made from 100% sustainably grown and harvested bamboo paired with a cotton tip colored with natural coloring, these eco-friendly bamboo cotton swabs are extremely useful for everything from personal care to craft projects, and comes in recycled content and recyclable packaging (no plastic!) Plus, this product supports the Humble Smile Foundation, supporting oral health initiatives for those in need worldwide!
Bamboo
As a member of the grass family, bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on earth. It requires no irrigation, pesticides or fertilizers to grow, and can be harvested within 3-5 years, as compared to approximately 30+ years for traditional hardwoods. Bamboo is extremely adaptable and produces more oxygen per acre than large tree species, while using a fraction of the water to grow. Its durable and lightweight qualities make bamboo a great alternative for hard wood products!

BPA Free
Products that are labeled as BPA free do not contain Bisphenol A, a chemical commonly found in plastic products. Studies on BPA exposure have shown that high levels of BPA could lead to hormone disruption, effects on behavior and brain function, reproductive problems, breast cancer, heart disease, infertility, and more.

Charitable
This company donates a portion of their time or profits to charitable efforts in their community or abroad.

Compostable
This product contains material that can break down into soil in either a backyard or industrial composting system. These products are declared compostable by the manufacturer, but may not third-party certified. Contact your local waste-hauler or composting facility to determine where these materials may be accepted. Certain materials may be better fit for industrial facilities than backyard composting systems. Industrial facilities may not exist in your area.

Cruelty Free
Cruelty Free is a certification process through PETA that labels products that are not tested on animals. All companies that are included on PETA's cruelty-free list have signed a statement verifying that they don't use ingredients or create finished products that help conduct or pay for any tests on animals.

Customers praised these biodegradable swabs as "an excellent alternative to traditional cotton swabs with plastic." They're sturdy with bamboo sticks that don't bend easily and cotton that stays attached. While some noted they're smaller and less fluffy than regular swabs, most found them effective for makeup, ear cleaning, and various tasks. Main concerns: sizing, price point, and small pack quantities.

In my opinion, these are identical in size and strength to cotton swabs with plastic handles, so this is a really easy swap to make.

Not bad

The swabs are smaller than most, but work pretty well. I find reusable rubber swabs don't do much so these are a good alternative

Great eco-alternative

On my quest to completely zero-waste my bathroom cabinet, these have come in very handy. They function just like regular q-tips but then I can throw them in the compost. Brilliant!

They do the job with same quality as your standard cotton swab - soft cotton, strong stick with no bending - but fully biodegradable.

Superior for no plastic packaging

These swabs are a little stiff. They come in paperboard, not plastic, which is basically impossible to avoid in almost every store. I like the blue ones, i think they're fun. I will buy this product for as long as they make it.

Not as fluffy as the

Not as fluffy as the q tips, but that could be an advantage depending on what you plan to use them for

smaller cotton bud and price

This may be a good swap, but the pricepoint and the fact that the cotton bud is smaller than others dictate that I won't purchase these again.

Great q-tip

Sometimes the q tip snaps but you aren't supposed to put them in that hard anyway lol, like any other q tip but more environmentally friendly

Cleans your ears well! I

Cleans your ears well! I like that these are stiff, doesn't bend easily like other q-tip brands. I wish the heads were a bit softer and fluffier, but overall I like these.

Saving the turtles

The only thing I don't like is it's a little harder to get nail polish off than with a regular Q-tip, but saving the turtles, the ocean and the planet are worth the extra effort

Very hardy

Love the fact these are a more sustainable alternative to the plastic versions; bought the blue ones to differentiate so the household could try. Everyone liked them and how sturdy they were - will buy again.
