LastObject earns mixed-but-positive reviews: its eco-minded designs work for many, with LastTissue praised for a clever, hygienic case system and durable, easy-to-clean swabs replacing disposable Q-tips, yet makeup-specific swabs often smear product and some users find silicone tips less effective than cotton. Reviews also flag comfort and softness issues (scratchy rounds, not-plush tissues) and occasional staining, while long-term durability, portability, and thoughtful cases stand out.
I love this in theory, but it didn't work for me in practice. The swab does not pick up matter like a cotton swab would, since it's silicone-tipped. I'm sad because I was hopeful that this would help me reduce waste, but it really isn't used.
I've tried the laundry detergent sheets from this brand, and they work well enough for my clothes. My clothes still have that slight "clean clothes" smell even when using these sheets. The price for these sheets is comparable to other brands' detergent sheets. The company overall has a good mission.
I purchased LastTissue and really love it! I have a pack in my car and one in my nightstand. The silicone "box" feels great in your hand. It fits 5 reusable tissue/handkerchiefs. You take one out of the bottom slit, use it, and stuff it up top. When you come to the last tissue it has a special tag on it so you know to wash them.
I generally wash mine as they are used, but the design is very thoughtful. The tissues are not particularly soft - they are fine for every day use, but if I had a runny nose I would need something softer.
I bought several more for friends. I will purchase their full size kleenex replacement when our final box runs out.
Feedback
The only improvement I would suggest is changing the color on the special tag of the last clean tissue to something other than white. A white tag on a white tissue blends too well.
I got both the LastRound and LastSwab through a martie box, which was great. I use a lot of cotton pads for my face and removing makeup. I like that I got the black ones, so they don't feel like they're getting destroyed by black eyeliner. They are pretty absorbent so I worry a little bit about putting expensive product on them, but I'm not sure it's any worse than a cotton round, it just is a different type of material. I also go through a lot of cotton swabs trying to clean up eyeliner and eyeshadow, so I thought the lastswab would be great for that. I don't think that's really its intended purpose to be honest. The rubbery ends make sense for earwax and being able to clean easily, but after one time trying to clean up eyeliner, I can't wash out some of the black left on the end. It also just wasn't as good at those small fixes, but once I've finished up with the cotton swabs I have on hand, I will return to it and give it another shot.
