Month by month, star by star, object by object, Stephen James O'Meara takes readers on a celestial journey to many of the most prominent stars and constellations visible from mid-northern latitudes. Filled with interesting anecdotes about the stars and constellations and their intriguing histories, this book is both a useful guide for amateur astronomers, and a great first-time reference for those just starting out. After describing a constellation's mythology, readers are guided in locating and identifying its brightest stars in the sky, as well as any other bright targets of interest - colorful stars, double or multiple stars, star clusters and asterisms, nebulae, galaxies, variable stars, and more. This book will help beginning stargazers become familiar with the stars and constellations visible from their backyards, and explore the brightest and best stars, nebulae, and clusters visible through inexpensive, handheld binoculars.

Good quality but slightly loose cotton
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
This product is great for removing eye makeup and absorbs micellar water well. The cotton round is thick and just the right size for both eyes. However, the cotton sometimes comes undone when my hangnails get stuck on it. It's also easy to tear apart if you pull on it.

Excellent Quality and Good Value
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
While these really don't cost any or much less than the grocery store pads, I do find that they have good cotton content, are exceedingly soft, remove makeup often with one swipe, shed very little if at all, and are quite versatile. I've bought them three times and plan to keep it up.

Last a while
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 6)
Work well and have lasted me more than six months. They do get pulled apart easily so sometimes wiping your face leaves the cotton fuzzies

Good Buy
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
These seem to be pretty good especially for the price. I use mascara that’s pretty tough to remove, these cotton rounds help along with makeup remover without coming apart. They are soft and are lint free. They also absorb very well.

Soft, Durable, and So Much Better Than Cotton Balls
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
These cotton pads have been such a simple but huge upgrade to my routine. For years I used regular cotton balls or even toilet paper for skincare and makeup removal, so I wasn’t expecting these to make that much of a difference. After seeing them on Amazon, I decided to give them a try, and now I don’t want to go back.
They are incredibly soft and gentle on my skin, especially around my eyes. I mainly use them for applying toner and removing eye makeup, and they work perfectly for both. They don’t fall apart, leave lint behind, or soak up tons of product like regular cotton balls do. The size is perfect too — large enough to be useful without wasting product.
One thing that really surprised me is how well they work for removing nail polish. I can usually remove polish from all ten nails with just one cotton pad, which definitely helps them last longer. Overall, these feel much more high quality than standard cotton balls, and they’ve made my skincare routine easier and less messy.
