this review title is: good buy and the content is: i actually bought these to clean harder to reach areas like my keyboard and waterpik crevices they work well for those intended uses i believe they are soft enough for makeup application but i cannot say for sure i had a few come off the stick but i was a little rough at first to see how well they held up now that i know how much pressure i can apply i have no problems with them.there are other information for this review, one is this reviewer did purchase it and the other is 0 people think this review is helpful.
