The average woman uses three pad per day, which equates to about 1000 per year. If you also use pads to remove makeup every day, consider using pads that are washable and can be used multiple times.

Made from organic cotton, they can be washed in the washing machine at 40 or 60 degrees. They cost about 7 euros for four pieces.

It takes about 20,000 litres of water to produce one kilogram of disposable cotton pads. These devastating figures clearly show the harmful side of pollution that most people are unaware of but are directly or indirectly involved in.
