Reusable Makeup Remover Pads

Reusable makeup remover pads, what are they?

We are used to single-use cotton pads, which are thrown away directly after use. Still, there is a better alternative for the environment that is very simple: the bamboo makeup pads.

This is a small piece of cloth, often made of vegetal fibre, which is used in exactly the same way as the classic make-up remover pads, except that, unlike the latter, it can be reused over and over again. All you have to do is wash it.

Why use bamboo makeup pads?

The reusable makeup remover pads will help you take much better care of your face. Its quality and softness will make it easier than ever to stop using disposable make-up remover pads.

• Reusable makeup remover pads are incredibly soft

  Whether it's a set of 10, 16, or 22, the two bamboo reusable pads kits contain both soft and scrubby make-up pads. They all are made from bamboo fibres, which makes them so exceptionally soft. On top of that, bamboo fibres have the impressive property of becoming softer after each wash, ensuring that your make-up pads remain pleasant to use for a very long time.

  The soft velvet pad is ideal for all skin types and especially for removing make-up from sensitive areas, such as the eyes. You can also use it to apply cream or foundation.

• They are exfoliating

  Scrub terry pads are perfect for removing tenacious products. Thanks to their exfoliating properties, they allow you to cleanse your skin thoroughly, essential for keeping your skin healthy.

  In addition to make-up, your skin becomes covered in bacteria, pollutants, dirt and dead skin during the day. By washing your skin with a bamboo makeup pad, you will remove all these impurities that could clog your pores and lead to blemishes.

• Bamboo makeup pads are super absorbent

  Bamboo fibre is also known for its absorbent properties in addition to its exceptional softness. Bambaw bamboo reusable pads are therefore more absorbent than traditional make-up removal pads. So all you have to do is apply make-up remover and gently rub your face with it, and the make-up will come off effortlessly.

• They are machine washable

  Both kit sizes come with their cotton bag, so you can easily machine wash your reusable makeup remover pads. When your pads are used, simply gather them in the bag and wash them at 40-60 degrees. It is recommended that you do not use fabric softener or tumble dry them to ensure that they last as long as possible.

• Bamboo makeup pads will save you money

  One of the great advantages of reusable makeup remover pads is that they can be reused hundreds of times. This means that, although they cost more to buy than disposable make-up pads, they are much more economical in the long run. So it's an investment that will benefit both your wallet and the planet.

The ecological impact of traditional cotton

Conventional cotton pads are a disaster for the environment. Cotton is highly polluting because it is grown with massive use of pesticides, fertilisers and water. Therefore, cotton should not be used as a disposable item.

To make matters worse, cotton pads are usually packaged in plastic. Plastic packaging is a significant contributor to the environmental problem we face today, as it generates a lot of waste and has an impact on the planet's ecosystem. Indeed, due to poor product design, and the lack of clear legislation, the majority of this plastic ends up in landfills or worse, directly in nature.

Luckily, there are reusable alternatives, empowering you to create a waste-free makeup removal routine.
