Require a little extra work
I’ve had these for a little while now and figured I’d write a review. I was very eager to find an alternative to wasteful cotton rounds.<br /><br />The problem I most immediately noticed was that these pads were too thin and too large to be used with one hand. They fold and roll up easily when rubbing on your face so I have been folding them into fourths in order to give them some leverage. They also shed a tiny bit but that has seemed to mostly go away with a few washes. Liquids also take awhile to absorb but folding them into the cotton quickens the process.<br /><br />As far as removing makeup, I can say the texture of these pads do wonders. I don’t wear a ton of makeup but I didn’t even notice how good of a job they did because there was no streaking and no irritation. I got black on purpose so they wouldn’t stain.<br /><br />Overall I plan to stick with these eco friendly pads and hope to get used to the new techniques needed.
