Use Microfiber Squares Instead of Cotton Balls

Microfiber cloths can be cut into small squares and used to remove makeup, apply toner, etc. Rinsed and reused, then washed and replaced! Eliminate the use of cotton balls!

Add a tablespoon of washing soda (Arm & Hammer) to the wash water to remove greasy soil. Works great.

I've cut up an old microfibre towel into little squares and hemmed the edges. They are great for removing makeup and applying toner. I've had my current microfihre squares for over 2 years now and they are still going strong. If you use super greasy makeup removers like cold cream, it helps to soak them in water with dish detergent to get rid of some of the grease.

That is a fantastic idea and helps the environment. Kudos!
