ABSTRACT:
An improved swab having cotton covered enlarged distal ends and an elongate stem for use in cleaning the outer portion of the ear and/or in applying cosmetics and the like. Positioned at the distal end of the swab beneath the cotton coverings is a disc which is sized to prevent entry of the swab into the human ear canal. The disc also prevents the stem from protruding through the cotton covering and causing injury during use.
