Cotton buds are quite useful to have at home and work. Look at everything you can do with them – besides cleaning your ears, of course!
- Cotton buds make excellent DIY make-up brushes. Use them to apply your eyeshadow. Plus, they’re perfect to wipe away any messes, like mascara that always seems to end up on our eyelids and under our eyes.
- Use a cotton bud and some make-up remover or tissue oil to wipe off your make-up in the evenings before you cleanse your face.
- You can use a cotton bud to do nail art. Plus, a cotton bud dipped in nail polish remover works perfectly to wipe away ‘mistakes’ once you’ve painted your nails.
- A cotton bud is the perfect size to clean your computer or laptop keyboard, because it fits in-between the keys where the dirt gets stuck. It also works well for cleaning your cellphone’s screen and buttons.
- Get your glasses squeaky clean with a cotton bud. It fits in all those difficult-to-reach places, like under the nose pads, around the tiny screws and between the glass and frame.
- The earphones you use in your ears become dirty quickly. Clean them out easily with a cotton bud – it’s the perfect size to fit inside.
- Keep the little ones busy with some paint and cotton buds, which they can use as small paintbrushes.
- Use a cotton bud for face painting. It’s the perfect size to draw lines, make dots and draw the details to transform your little one into a butterfly or superhero!
