With many different reasons and applications, makeup has already become an important part of many of our lives. And we have several other products that we also put on our face, such as tonics and cleansing lotions. The truth is that, when we clean our face, we often use disposable cotton, as it's not always easy to find sustainable options.
NAUA Reusable Makeup Remover Pads are a sustainable alternative to disposable cotton pads. They have two different faces - one softer for the eyes area - and the big SECRET, which makes these discs super practical, is the fact that they have an opening at the base to use as a glove. Using them in this way gives you greater control of the disc and achieves greater precision in the eye area, for example.
Handmade in Portugal, these Makeup Removers are made of 100% organic cotton and have a square shape to avoid waste.
Reusable Makeup Removal Pads appear as a way to replace the “use it and throw it away” by the “use it, wash it and use it again”. But, in addition to the search for alternatives to disposables, it's also important to know the environmental impact of products that are part of our care routine.
Can you imagine the amount of wasted pads and cotton per year when using disposable pads? One pad for tonic, plus three or four for removing makeup – if you multiply by 365 days, that means we dispose of almost two thousand cotton pads in the trash in just one year. Knowing that 1kg of cotton needs more than twenty thousand liters of water to be produced, we are able to get a sense of the effect that our routine can have on this precious resource.
In addition to being reusable, NAUA Makeup Removal Discs have the mission of using the best resources and materials, respecting our planet and also promoting fair trade. How is this reflected in practice? NAUA Reusable Makeup Remover Pads are produced in Portugal, the fabric and label are made of GOTS certified organic cotton and the line is made of wood pulp. Why is this important? A GOTS certified product must contain a minimum of 95% organic fibers – meaning that they don't contain synthetic chemicals or pesticides.
Aligned with these values is also the Discs' packaging: it's made of recycled, compostable and recyclable cardboard, with no glue points.
