Hey all and welcome to another eco-friendly post! Recently I was lucky enough to be able try out the Eco Panda Reusable Makeup Removal Pads. I'd been looking to make a plastic free swap and move away from face wipes for a while, so when they asked me to review them I thought it was perfect timing! I really like these. Not only do you get 18 cotton pads, but they also come in a gorgeous bamboo pot (and it's a nice and stylish solid pot too). You also get a laundry bag to keep your use pads in and to wash them in.
The pads are also slightly bigger than cotton wool pads are and I like this because I found them easier to use and remove my makeup with. It also means that you need to use less of them each time you take your makeup off and so don't have to do so many washing loads.They are really lovely looking but I did accept that they weren't going to stay that way for long once I started covering them in all my makeup! But one thing that I found to really help with the cleaning process is to quickly give them a rinse and a rub between my fingers straight away before putting them into the laundry bag.
Another thing that I liked about them is that they're soft and double layered, so not only do they feel good on my skin but you can also really use both sides as they don't soak through with the cleanser. Although you get 18 pads in a pack (so 36 sides) to remove your makeup with, I found that with my bust lifestyle I was going through them faster than I was putting on washing loads. Luckily Eco Panda also do another pack containing 16 pads, a laundry bag, and a face cloth. So I'm going to get myself one of those to top up what I'm already using. I'm really glad that I got to try these and now use them every day! Next up I'll need to find a sustainable alternative to my bottles of cleanser and toner...
