Why switch to washable cotton swabs?

As everyone knows, disposable plastic cotton swabs have had to be redesigned. Regulations are evolving in favor of ecology, which is why disposable plastic has been banned since January 1, 2020.

The plastic cotton swab has become a bamboo or sometimes wood cotton swab. Unfortunately, waste reduction remains unchanged, as the product is still disposable and not 100% biodegradable.

I'd like to talk about the Caliquo wooden cotton swab. A washable and durable cotton swab. Our goal is to reduce the amount of waste thrown away every day.

What is a washable cotton swab also called an oriculi (or auriculi)?

Caliquo is the manufacturer of the only French-made beechwood ear cleaner.

A washable ear cleaner or cotton swab is an item that can be used to clean earwax and is intended to be an environmentally friendly and recyclable product.

At Caliquo, we do everything we can to offer you quality products, made with French raw materials and manufactured in France.

How to use a washable cotton swab?

Insert the hollowed-out part of the washable cotton swab into your ear, being careful not to insert it too deeply. Once inside, make circular movements to collect the earwax from the walls of your ear. Then remove the washable cotton swab.

Once the ear is cleaned, it's time to clean it with the washable cotton swab.

Run your washable cotton swab under warm water to remove your earwax. Then you can use soap to clean it.

Let it air dry, be careful not to leave it soaking in water.
