Reusable make-up remover pads

 

I wonder how many buds of cotton wool and pads get thrown away every day when we remove the make-up from our faces. Worse still, what about the make remover wipes? Yes, I used to use those too, so I was part of the problem. As a result of some research, I found some beautiful soft organic hemp fleece, which is blended with cotton and also some organic cotton fleece. I chose some good quality cotton in plain and elegant patterns and created my little luxury bags of re-usable make-up remover pads. These are ideal when travelling. Just pop the bag in your case and away you go.

 

When you're at home, it can be easier just to dip your hand into a pot or hanging storage pod, so now you can buy a set in these storage solutions too. If you just want the pads without the storage, then I also sell them in sets of 6 in a small card box.

 

Caring for your re-usable pads

 

After removing your make up, simply either rinse the pad in your wash basin or pop them in a small laundry bag ready to add to your general washing. Wash at 30 degrees and remember not to add any fabric conditioner. This  leaves traces of petro-chemicals derived nasties in the conditioner on your pads you wouldn't want to put those on your skin. It also reduces absorbency. If you use an eco-friendly conditioner, check the ingredients; you may be OK to use it but this is your choice. I leave my pads in the laundry bag and line dry them when the weather is suitable.
