Reusable makeup remover pads are the ideal alternative to their disposable versions. Easy to sew, makeup removal pads make a great gift as well as being a simple way to make your makeup routine a little more eco-responsible.
Your new fabric makeup remover pads will have the same softness as commercial ones are and will be easy to wash in the laundry by putting them in a mesh washing bag. This is a nice project to use your flannel and cotton fabric scraps with your favourite designs.Format
For this DIY we opted for finished square pads of approximately 9 cm (3 ½ in) x 9 cm (3 ½ in) with a cotton fabric side to allow you to use your favourite designs and 2 plies of flannel. You can easily vary the sizes and fabric choices as you wish.
Here are other zero waste projects that will help you waste (a little) less!
