Conventional cotton pads are a disaster for the environment. Cotton is grown with a massive use of pesticides, fertilisers and water. Therefore, cotton should not be use as single-use item.

Why Lucy Loves
Reusable makeup wipes are an incredible sustainable alternative to disposable wipes. They are free from chemicals and I absolutely love mine. These are great because you get 16 which means less washing and you get two different types. They are really good at removing all your makeup and are super easy to wash. I have always preferred these types of pads to your cotton rounds as I think they get the dirt and makeup off better. Although the velvet pads do contain polyester, these are reusable and will last you forever if looked after.
About The Brand
"Zero-waste products for a better future". Bambaw was founded in 2015 by twin brothers Max & Augustin.
Their mission is to 'rethink the way we consume and offer durable alternatives to wasteful products, which we call zero waste swaps'
Their products are crafted with the lowest eco-footprint possible and under fair conditions. I came across this brand when I made a swap to a safety razor and have loved this brand ever since. They knew it would be important to create a reusable cup that encapsulated, style, design and performance in order to encourage others to ditch the disposable.
