Make-up:6 ecological alternatives to disposable cotton pads for removing make-up

Of all our new good habits made in confinement, during these months spent at home, a better skincare routine is the one we are most proud of! And if you did even better on the make-up removal side skipping classic cottons to replace them with the best in the field?

The importance of make-up removal for beautiful skin

Whether you are a fan of full face or lighter make-up where only mascara has its place on your face, you cannot escape the make-up removal box. The skin needs to breathe, regardless of what you've done all day or how tired you are; we beg you not to go to bed still made up. Makeup can clog your pores and your face will become more prone to breakouts and other skin problems.

Goodbye disposable cottons, the planet thanks you

Delete this cotton that I cannot see. To respect your face but also the planet, the classic disposable cotton pads are to be completely removed, out of the question of letting them pass the door of our bathroom.
It is important to remember that not only are they sold in plastic packaging when you buy them, but they are also forsingle use , which means that every disk you use is bound to end up in the trash. Unfortunately, these are not their only negatives when it comes to the environment. They are made of cotton, which when produced non-biologically and in bulk, releases chemicals polluting the ecosystem.

Oil, foam, sponge or towel, so that everyone can find what they are looking for, we offer you 6 alternatives to the now unloved disposable cotton pads.
