Do these pads contain polyester?
NO!!! They are certified 100% bamboo cotton (70% bamboo + 30% organic cotton)
Polyester can be found in all Bamboo Velvet/Velour pads, Bamboo Terry pads and Bamboo Charcoal pads.
Our pads are Bamboo Cotton and they are plastic free!
Can these pads be tumble dried?
Line dry is best as tumble drying is liable to shrink the pads.
How many layers do they have?
Only two layers to avoid excessive absorption of water or cleansing products.
Can I wash black and white pads together?
Please wash them separately. This will help to avoid the grey colour on the white pads.
Are they absorbent as a normal cotton pad?
Yes they are, but please wash them before the first use.
How to use reusable bamboo cotton pads?
- Wash before the first use
- Dip into warm water and wipe away the makeup in a circular motion
- Repeat until your skin is clean and fresh
- Put the dirty pads into the laundry bag and then into the washing machine at 40oC (remember to tie the bag tightly) or wash them by hand
- To dry, you can either put them on a dry towel, a flat surface or hang them by using their tags
- If you want, you can iron them at low temperature

These reusable makeup pads are a great alternative to disposable cotton makeup pads. I am a total convert, especially as they are so environmentally friendly. I’m delighted with the quality and size of the pads, couldn’t be more perfect. The delivery was fast and the price so reasonable for what you get. Will be buying this again as presents for friends – it will make an ideal gift, not only on the eco friendly side, but also because its beautifully presented. Very happy with my purchase.

I love these!!! I use miscellar water to remove makeup and bought these ro replace my cotton pads. So far they have not disappointed. They are really soft on the skin, I dont get any redness like I did with wipes. And they are super easy to clean, I just used some warm water and soap to clean off the make up. End of the week I put the ones I had used in the washing machine and dryer, and they came out brand new. I would definately recommend these!

The pads are pleasant and soft to use. I have washed them and they have come up completely clean, despite having had mascara, blusher and eyeshadow on them, after a 40° wash in a mesh bag. I wanted to move away from using cotton wool unless it is absolutely necessary (e.g. when removing nail polish) and this has enabled me to do that. I dampen the pads slightly with tap water before using micellar water and they work very well.
