LastSwab Reusable Cotton Bud - Basic
Fact - 1.5 billion single-use plastic cotton buds are produced each day. Many end up in our waterways and oceans. Plastic cotton buds break down into microplastics which can be ingested by the smallest phytoplankton through to the biggest whale.
Reusable, Sustainable, and Easy to Clean - LastSwab is an environmentally friendly alternative to cotton swabs. Strong rod and soft durable tips are reusable. Even easier to clean, just use soap and water. It comes in a corn-based carry case that pops open with ease.

Why is this product eco-conscious?
The swab ends are TPE, the rod is plastic, and the case is PLA which is made of corn and is biodegradable. When creating a product to last for thousands of uses, durability is key. LastSwab replaces thousands of single-use cotton swabs. Even if LastSwab does end up in the ocean, it’s damage is less than 0.1% of its single-use counterparts, simply because there will be much less of them.
