reusable makeup remover pads
Makeup Remover Pads
Ladies, if you like the idea of not using makeup wipes or throw-away pads but still like to use something similar to remove your makeup and cleanse, these scrubbies might be just what you need.
Furthermore they also make a great gift for friends or your tween and teen girls.
They come in a round and square variety, the square one being a little larger.
- Made with 100% cotton yarn, which is super absorbent and gives a lovely clean feel on the skin.
- I’ve tested the white wipes with makeup removal and no stains after washing!!
- I recommend a cold wash and to dry flat.
- Cotton will shrink a little in the dryer, but if you don’t mind, go ahead 😊.
$8 for a set of 3
