Why are disposable cotton pads a danger to your skin... and the planet?

🧴 Classic makeup removers: an irritating cocktail

Many makeup remover products sold in supermarkets contain endocrine disruptors , parabens , alcohol , and other ingredients that are harsh on the skin. These components weaken the skin barrier, causing redness, dryness, and even allergic reactions.

And what about disposable cotton pads? Their abrasive texture can, in the long run, irritate sensitive skin and accentuate imperfections.


🌍 An alarming ecological impact

A single disposable cotton pad = several liters of water used in manufacturing.
And we use several of them a day ...

On average, a person uses more than 1,000 cotton pads per year , which end up in the trash after a few seconds of use. Not to mention the plastic packaging, the chemicals used to bleach the fibers, and the pollution associated with transportation.

It’s an invisible but daily waste… and avoidable.
