Cotton buds what more is there to say?
Ran out of cotton buds, and local store didn’t have any for sale.
Found these online quite cheap (at the time) and does their job.
Fun fact apparantly you shouldn’t use cotton buds to clean ears, still they do the job perfectly.
I mean it makes sense to be gentle/careful in such an area.
After purchase i found out they were bio degradable, can’t say that made a difference or that that was the choice for why i bought them though it’s a nice bonus.
A vast improveme
These Bamboo buds are a vast improvement on the plastic or paper ones, they are sturdy and don’t bend ,a good length, the cotton bud is nicely formed and firm but not hard.
They are ideal for applying the anti fungal bacterial cream between my toes, the old ones used to bend too much.
they come in a nice sturdy cardboard box.
I’m not shy of spunking my money on stuff but these are expensive for what they are, I appreciate they’re bamboo but you can go to Tesco and get 300 for 80p. They are sturdy tho and I’m sure if you are an eco warrior then you will love these.
I am finding that amazon is not verifing products sold on their site. I can buy a product once and its amazing and 2nd time is can be very poor. The cotton comes off the buds as soon as I put it in my ears. However due to this review the seller sent me another batch which is much better hence updating my review
Bad to MUCH BETTER!
I was very disappointed with this purchase and was pleasantly surprised when friendly customer service contacted me back and confirmed that I must have received a bad batch of these. They sent me a replacement and I must say that they are way way better! So thank you for this.
Cotton buds that are environmentally friendly
These are just like regular cotton buds but environmentally friendly. So zero reason not to swap over and use these and help the planet!
An excellent product.
There is nothing to say other than great service, environmentally friendly and excellent value.
Great produce
Will last ages as there are lots in this deal. They are easy to use and do not come apart when in use.
Doesn't bend like the eco-friendly paper crap
J&J cotton buds have become useless since the switch to paper/cardboard. These are much better.
Excellent quality
Used mostly for make up corrections they might be a wee bit rougher than other brands but just need to be more careful.
Eco friendly.
Good product.
Personally I prefer another brand which uses paper stems, but I’m quite happy using these as well.
I use these mainly on my ears, and the only issue I have is how stiff they are compared with the paper stemmed versions. But they work fine one you are used to them.
Where I think they absolutely excell is in cleaning inanimate things, like keyboards, mice, electronics and the multitude of other fiddly jobs done by Q tips / ear buds. The added strength of the bamboo and cotton quality makes these jobs easier.
Excelle
Beautiful robust product. They don’t bend or snap and the bud stays completely intact. Love the packaging too – it felt like I was giving presents when I handed packets out to my family – so sweet.
Sturdy and eco friendly
Many of the non plastic versions of these are really flimsy and if you use them for your ears (which I know you shouldn’t do!) that can be really annoying. These are sturdy and so make controlling them easier. Also great to know I’ve made a more eco choice. Definitely recommend.
Much sturdier than the new paper ones
I get why we need to move away from single-use plastics, there is no reason for a lot of them in this day and age, but we also need to use the best tool for the job. And unfortunately, paper Q-tips like you find in all the supermarkets are not the best. Far from it. When the second you get the paper Q-tips wet and put and pressure on them, they just fold and collapse, so they are pretty much useless.
Step up to the plate, Ecoshoots Bambuds. Coolest named product ever, Bambuds are the hero we all need, yet don’t deserve. These little Q-tips are environmentally friendly, and super sturdy, you get get them nice and wet, and they don’t lose their shape. Just please, do not dispose in the toilet, just wash them down and dispose in the trash.
Genius
This product (not necessarily this brand) was very expensive when it first came to market, so happy to see that volume is clearly making the price accessible, these are very good value, boxed great, and should leave you with no reason to ever buy the evil plastic ones ever again.
Cute small boxes easy to store compared to traditional round packaging
Perfect option and much easier to store, 100 per box very pleased
What can I say……..
How about I’m glad I got them.
Great quality.
Packaging is spot on and without waste.
Good size although could be longer imo.
Everything is recyclable too which is a huge bonus as I’m doing my best to reduce my carbon foot print where practically possible.
Got the 400 pack which I find excellent value – will definitely purchase ahem needed.
To the seller –
Thank you for your message but for whatever reason I’m unable to respond via the app.
Thank you.
Great value for money
I love that you can be eco friendly and not feel you are paying over the odds for it. These bambuds are terrific. Superb quality and superb value for money.
An amazingly, satisfying and eco-friendly ear cleaning experience.
Bamboo rather than plastic gives you a sturdy cleaning experience and it is as good for the environment. If you enjoy an ear cleaning session, then look no further.
Bamboo cotton buds
Apart from being made from bamboo, there is no obvious difference between these and “traditional” cotton buds made with plastic tubes.
They are sufficiently strong, slightly flexible and easy to use.
Unlike plastic cotton buds, they can be disposed of in standard home recycling bins.
Definitely worth buying
Brilliant produc
Bought to do a cats ears that need cleaning on the edge (vet advice). Lovely and small, but big enough enough for the job. Do not like ear buds but being biodegradable helps. Cat is not so sure. All packaging is recyclable as well.
Decent optio
The cotton bud bits are not as soft as the general brands from the chemists or supermarkets but they work fine and they’re not plastic so I will buy again.
Wow
Amazing product, cheaper and am much happier with the eco-friendly packaging and zero waste as it is very tight. The buds themselves feel really nice and even better to use than the one’s you would buy at the hypermarket/supermarket! Great product again really happy and surprised as it’s my 1st time but won’t be the last for sure!

Great alternative to plastic/pape
Great product, very comfortable and sturdy. 100% plastic free packaging. Will use these from now on.
Great buds
They stick in my ear with great precision and comfort as they sweep up the wax without creating a big smudge. Very gripping on the flip do to it all over again on the other side
