Cotton Cosmetic Tips Reviews

Swisspers Cotton Cosmetic Tips are a high quality cotton tip that is incredibly useful for fixing and adjusting my eye, brow and lip makeup application. One end of the cotton tip is tapered for removing any smudged areas when applying eye makeup, The other end is more flat and rounded like a paddle, which is great to fix the shape of my lips when applying lipstick. I love the dual use of these cotton tips and they always come in handy when I’m applying makeup at home or when I’m travelling away from home.

Has been using this more than 3 years now. It has been the best cotton tips for eye work and brow works so far. This was actually my hubby mistakenly bought after i requested him to get me cotton buds during his visits to woolworths. At first i was annoyed because it doesn't look like the traditional one but as I started doing/removing makeup using it, really does helps a lot. The sharp tip is used below the eye for smaller space and the flat tip i use on the eyelid.

Before I found out about this cosmetic tips I used to have to use a makeup wipe or a regular cotton tip to help clean up my makeup mistakes but because the regular cotton tips were too big and thick they weren't that precise. I would have to remove some of the cotton to make it more narrow but now I don't have to because I use the swisspers ones made just for cosmetics.

It's a dual ended cosmetic tip with one side being pointy and the other end being a bit more wide and flat. I mostly use the pointy side because it's much more precise and it works well for when I make mistakes with my eye makeup. For me I like to use it to clean up my winged eyeliner. Having an unsteady hand means I tend to mess up a lot so I dip the tip in makeup remover or micellar water to clean up the edges of my winged eyeliner and make it look more sharp and clean. It does such a great job. I've used it to clean on my lower lash line when I've put too much eyeliner or if I used an eyeshadow colour I didn't like.

I have also used it when cleaning up my eyelid if I accidentally got mascara on it and my eyebrows if I put too much powder. The tips are not just limited for makeup. I have also used it to clean up around my nails when putting on nail polish. I dip it into acetone and it becomes like a nail polish remover pen. It contains 100 so it's great value!

These dual-ended cotton tips have become indispensable to me. As I am always short on time in the morning, I often somehow manage to smudge my mascara or eyeliner, or get a drop of mascara on the side of my nose if I'm applying in the car (the worst!). A quick swipe with one of these babies after it's dipped in micellar water has been my saviour time and time again. I've also used them to apply eyeshadow in a pinch, they work amazingly!

I have purchased more of these tubs than I could genuinely count. They are absolutely necessary for me. Not only do they work as fantastic tools to clean up my winged liner boo-boos (they happen more than I'd like so I'm glad this product comes in packs of 100!) but there's no reason you can't still use them for medical purposes as they are very high quality, I've never had a single one fall apart on me.

I purchased these in the Beautorium November 2017.

Since I started to use these I've been using them more and more. I like to dip the end into some micellar water for make-up corrections. It's very easy to accurately pinpoint any mistakes and swipe them off my face when I use these. They have a pointy end (made of cotton) and a flat spoon-like end (also made of cotton). I find the spoon-like end handy to dip into pot's of skincare product (like a moisturiser) for hygenic purposes.

I will re-purchase these again when the pot runs out. Handy little things!

After purchasing Swisspers Dual Cosmetic Tips, I cannot see myself being without them. For the many ways in which they can be used, they are indeed extremely handy and cheap.

I love the uniquely shaped ends; one being pointed while the other is flat. The cotton comprising each tip is also tightly wound so that it maintains its shape during use.

I use the flat shaped end to apply my powder eyeshadow because the surface area of the tip is larger than a conventional cotton tip and can cover a large area of my eyelid. So applying my eyeshadow with this type of cotton tip is quick.

The flattened end is also good for "dabbing" ointment or antiseptic cream onto small cuts or puncture wounds so that the whole procedure remains hygienic. Much better than using just your fingers !!! LOL !!!

Another way that I unconventionally use this end of the dual tip is to smudge my artwork when I am drawing. It makes a great "blending tool" for graphite drawings. With the pointed shaped end, I can blend very precise areas of my drawings.

When applying makeup, the pointed shape tip is useful for smudging eyeliner or kohl pencil along the lash line to achieve a "smokey" eye look. It is also great for removing misplaced eyeshadow or mascara on the eyelid by wetting the tip lightly with micellular cleansing water and removing "the mistake".

I also use the pointed end of this tip for removing grime from my spectacles. The pointed end is ideal for getting in between the lenses and the frame where dirt commonly collects. Also good for cleaning the nose piece of spectacles.

Recently, I found that the pointed end of a Swisspers Dual Cosmetic Tip is great for cleaning the links in the band of my watch where grime collects especially in Summer when I tend to perspire a lot.

With so many uses that this product can be used for apart from makeup, I would gladly recommend this product to anyone :).

I love this!
it's so good for fixing make-up errors, or applying anything due to its dual tip. It's so good and well priced!

I first saw these used by a makeup blogger I follow and I had to have them. High five to Swisspers - these are brilliant at removing makeup mistakes, namely mascara smudges, eyeshaddow fallout below the eyes and lipstick/liner/gloss mishaps. The unique dual ended tip shapes allow precision when used with makeup application. These beauties far exceed the standard cotton tips when used for this purpose.

An absolute makeup essential in anyone's makeup cabinet.
