Kendall/Covidien Prepping Cotton Ball, 500 Count

I mean, their cotton balls. I'm not sure what more I can say to review these. They are just as promised. They are a little bit smaller than I thought they would be but they're perfect for the household needs that I use them for. I love the bulk packaging so that I won't have to worry about getting more cotton balls or running out in quite some time. These are soft and seem to be a pretty good quality. Great price point and I would highly recommend.

Yes. They are small. That's what I was looking for and they are not that easy to find any more. I don't want those big puffballs. These work for my needs and the price is right. Quick shipment.

It's a really big and cheap bag of cotton balls. They're pretty thick cotton balls. Better than I'm used to getting from the dollar store or the pharmacy. But again, it's a really big bag of cotton balls. I'm set for the next couple years, probably...

While this is 500 count, it's equivalent to, say 150 count of usual ball sizes. These are quite small. With ones that I buy in a regular pharmacy, one ball is the size of about 3 or 4 of these. I usually split them in half when I'm applying lotion, so as not to waste the lotion that gets absorbed by too much cotton. But with these, one ball is too small to either apply lotion or to take off mascara. I need to put at least 2 balls together. Where before I would put 2 or 3 balls together to take off my mud mask, with these i need to use at least 6 or 7, and then they don's stick together when I wet them because they are too smooth to catch on each other. That being said, the texture is a good quality, smooth and comfortable on the skin, or usable on any gentle surface.

Great value and great product, my only mistake was not to notice the size when I purchased them. I’m used to getting the large or jumbo cotton balls and these are small, more appropriate for cleaning out scrapes, cuts and/or spot treatment acne. Ended up buying jumbo ones but definitely saving these for when needed.

The fact that these are listed as medium size is absolutely ridiculous. These are the smallest cotton balls ever. Sure, you get 500 in the bag but you need to use 3 for every normal 1 that you would expect to use. If you attempt to use one on let's say on a nail polish remover bottle, you will be getting the remover all over the place. Besides being so tiny in size, they clearly have zero thickness. Removing nail polish usually requires me to use at least 12-15, and that's if it's not a dark color. Even using these for a face astringent requires at least 3, and forget about eye makeup remove. You're better off using a tissue. These are in no way medium sized and aren't even worth 2 dollars. The picture gives it some justice but once you put a little liquid on it it's over. Definitely look for something better.

these are VERY small cotton balls! like, really small. they are perfect for removing nail polish, which is why I buy them. if you have talon nails or very deep nail beds you might want to keep looking. for my shortie nails and short nail beds these are just right. this is my second order and I have no complaints.

I bought these because they were cheaper than most of the other choices & came with a lot more! Yes, they are soft & they absorb well like most cotton balls, but they are very small. They didnt hold up very well when I applied my beauty water & moisturizer to my face. I can usually get away with using 1 cotton ball for both products on my face, but with this I had to use 4 to get my whole face 😕 So, you get what ya pay for! Not a bad product, just not what I needed! These would be better for first aid or crafts!
