A very important subject - Cotton Rounds

Today's post is all about my favorite cotton rounds.  Yes, cotton rounds. 

You might think that all cotton rounds are made the same, and really - what difference does it make?

I have used a million different cotton balls, cotton rounds, cotton squares, and cotton clothes.  I can tell you it makes a huge difference!  

Nothing annoys me more than when a cotton ball falls apart, absorbs too much product, is too small, or scratches your face from a rogue splinter that didn't get separated out.

These cotton rounds are PREMIUM!  I love them.  I really do.  I might even marry them.  But then I'd be a polygamist.

Anyway, I picked up these Delon+ 100% Pure Cotton rounds at +Costco for only $11.XX, I just can't remember the exact change, but I know it was $11 and change.

The Delon+ cotton rounds are made in Montreal, Canada.  I should have known these wondrous things would come from somewhere like that.

You get 8 packs of 100 rounds, and let me tell you these last forever.  I bought these sometime in early 2012 and I have only used 3 of the packages. 

They are soft, lint-free, and more absorbent than normal cotton rounds.  They have 3 layers. The smooth layer is great for astringent or nail polish remover.  The inner layer is fluffy and ultra absorbent.  The other outer layer is mesh and great for a gentle exfoliation of the skin.  I sometimes use this mesh side for removing glitter nail polish because you can scrub at it with the rougher side.

If you can't find them at Costco or you are not a member,  you can get them at Amazon but they are a little more expensive. 

Do you have a great alternative or something that you love that you like to share?  Let me know what you think.

Happy bargain hunting!
