Most likely you also use a little cotton or a cleaning cloth to remove makeup at the end of the day. But did you know that this simple daily act is very harmful to the environment?
And yet it is now known that cleaning wipes are not environmentally friendly due to the microplastics they contain. At the same time, it is also known that cotton production consumes a huge amount of water, significantly burdening the planet. Thus, it is no coincidence that more and more countries and global organizations are taking steps to reduce their use.
Even at the individual level, changing the use of these products with eco-friendly alternatives is an important positive step for the environment. We often find it difficult to adopt more sustainable habits. But it does not always have to be complicated.
With the following alternatives you can help the planet, continuing your daily grooming routine.
Wasteless Design is a Greek company based in Thessaloniki, which produces, among other things, bamboo wipes. You can choose between the set of 10 or 5 depending on your needs. These wipes are multi-purpose and have a long life. After use you can put them in the washing machine and they are like new. In addition, they are compostable so they will not burden the environment even when they reach the end of their lives.
Face Halo
It is no coincidence that Face Halo cleaning wipes have become world best-sellers in recent years. They cleanse the skin and remove makeup without the need for a cleanser. You just wet the handkerchief and pass it all over your face. They do not irritate the skin but deeply cleanse, even the waterproof makeup. They come in sets to choose the one you prefer and are normally washed in the washing machine. They can be washed up to 200 times and are made from recyclable materials.
