Great for your skin and better for the environment!
I use a lot of cotton rounds. Every day, I use them to remove makeup and to apply toner and softeners. I use at least 2, sometimes more a day. Cotton rounds are cheap, so it doesn't cost much to use them like I do. But it's wasteful.<br /><br />These bamboo cotton reusable rounds are much less wasteful and so soft on your skin! They absorb my makeup remover just fine, and take off my makeup with little issue. I find they work better than the cotton pads for toners and softener because they don't hold onto the liquid quite as much. I wash them immediately after use and leave them on a table to dry. At the end of the week, I put them all in the included mesh laundry bag and toss them into the washing machine with the rest of my laundry. They always emerge perfectly clean.<br /><br />I give it four stars instead of five because of the container. I adore this brand, and have a couple of their metal containers. This one is plain bamboo, which gives a nice sophisticated but understated look. But I don't like using it in areas that might get wet or damp, like the bathroom, because I don't want the bamboo to warp or get damp. Also, there's a cutout in the box so you can see how many rounds you have left. I understand the idea, but I don't like these type of items to be open to the air and dust when I'm going to be applying them to my face. The top comes off easily enough, which is useful when you're using it every day, but not amenable to the entire thing being packed in a travel bag.
