Our cotton swabs are made by a French company in a factory in Thailand and have 8 languages on the label: English, Dutch, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Greek, and Arabic.

Thank you very much Lorenzo :) We normally call them Q-tips in Trinidad. I also think Q-tip is a brand of cotton swabs. - HotChickCD, Jan 11, 2011
Q-tip is a brand and that's what we called them in LA--along with products like Kleenex, Jello, and a list of other brand names. - lorenzo9, Jan 11, 2011

In Mexico they are called "Limpiecitos," which is a brand name. Formally it´s "Aplicadores Limpiecitos."
