Cotton pad
Pads of cotton used for sanitary applications / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cotton pads are pads made of cotton which are used for medical or cosmetic purposes.[1] For medical purposes, cotton pads are used to stop or prevent bleeding from minor punctures such as injections or venipuncture.[2] They may be secured in place with tape. Cotton pads are also used in the application and the removal of makeup.[1] Cotton pads are soft enough that they can be used to clean babies.[1] Cotton balls have much of the same applications as cotton pads, and can be used interchangeably [citation needed].
