Did you know to produce one kilogram of cotton, the amount of water used is what one person would drink over three years? Imagine the amount of water used to produce a disposable cotton pad. Facial square is a replacement for your disposable cotton pads.
Handmade with 2 layers of cotton and terry cloth (for cotton squares) or 2 layers of flannel (for flannel squares). Edges surge for durability and to prevent fraying. You can use it for applying toner, cleansing, removing nail polish or removing make-up.
Facial Square (Cotton): More absorbent and is usually used to remove makeup
Facial Square (Flannel): Less absorbent and is usually used to apply toner
You will receive a mix of 5 or 10 different facial squares in a variety of super cute mixed prints shipped at random. We make these facial squares from leftover fabrics with other fabric projects.
Material
Cotton: 100% cotton and terry cloth |Â Flannel: 100% flannel
How Many Disposables It Can Replace

FAQs
Can I choose the design of the fabric?
As all the facial squares are made with random fabrics, you will not be able to choose the designs.

I would say if you don’t like how you have to use extra makeup remover solution on a reusable cotton round compared to a disposable cotton round’s absorbility, using this would be a better alternative especially if you often use waterproof / smudgeproof makeup which can be more difficult to remove. This version of cotton round holds the makeup solution well & the terry cloth is also gentle on the skin for me as I have normal / dry skin.
I do prefer a more gentle version of the terry cloth if there is any available or micro fiber cloth as i have heard that it cleanses well 🙂

Im so glad i made the change to these facial squares (in my opinion, they are like reusable cotton pads)!!! They are very thin so its very gentle on the skin, and dries very quickly too after washing!

Super pretty and soft. Got them as a gift but confident they’ll do good! There were very minor defects on two pieces but the folks from thesustainabilityproject were very kind to arrange for a replacement. Also kudos to reusing packaging and look at those cute stickers!

I tried both the cotton and flannel rounds and they work SO WELL! Used the cotton one to remove my makeup and felt like my face was really clean after and used the flannel one to add toner which worked perfectly well. I didn’t think that it was significantly more absorbant than cotton pads. The designs are so cute as well and it’s easy to wash!
