Info: Set of 3 Round Pads, in Brown, Pink & White
We can all do our part to generate less waste in the landfills by switching to reusable items wherever we can. Rather than removing makeup with disposable cotton rounds or cotton balls and throwing them out after a single use, you can use these quickly handwashable cleansing puffs up to 200 times each.

Product Notes:
Made of microfibre (yarn made from lengths of very fine fibres) they are very gentle and soft on the skin, like a very fine facecloth, and are suitable for all skin types. Although they can be used in conjunction with makeup remover or micellar water, you'll likely find them to be most effective simply by immersing them in a little water first, squeezing out the excess water, and using them like a wet sponge.
The three pads in each set not only have different colours, but also different patterns and textures to their weave, making them suitable for different tasks:
The White one is more suitable for removing lighter and easier to remove types of makeup or skincare products, including BB cream and sunscreen.
The Pink one is likely to be the mainstay for removing medium, daily makeup.
The Brown one is most suited to removing heavy makeup, including eye shadow, foundation, lipstick, mascara, or even stage makeup.

Composition and Dimensions:
Soft microfibre.
Each pad is about 12 cm (about 4-3/4") in diameter and 1.4 cm (a little over half an inch) thick, when dry.
Suggested Cleaning Method:
1. After you are done removing your makeup or skincare items, hand wash the pad in warm water, using a mild soap (such as Dr. Bronner's), possibly enhanced by a liquid makeup remover for substances like mascara.
2. After washing, rinse it thoroughly with water, and squeeze out the excess.
3. Hang it up to air dry, using its loop (with the "Clean Sponge" label).
4. You may also want to launder them after every seven uses or so, on the gentle cycle.
