Garnier Micellar Reusable Eco Pads

I love seeing mainstream brands ditching reusables and moving into more eco friendly products!

These pads works amazingly at removing all traces of makeup from the day including mascara and eyeliner.

It does say to use these with their micellar water, however my preference was to use this with water alone initially and go over any hard to remove spots with the micellar water afterwards and this left me feeling super fresh and clean.

The pads are super plush and soft and feeling amazing on the skin, they do not tug or feeling abrasive at all when being used. The only downside is that the 2 layers of plush material move around separately from each other so I felt like I had to fold it in half to get a really good grip and range of motion - not a biggy and didn't impact how well they worked.

They wash well, just chuck it in with a regular load and then they are good t go again - however my mascara did leave some slight black stains on the white

Overall I'm a big fan and think everyone should have these and ditch the single use make up pads and wipes! Better for your skin and better for the environment

I really like the idea of this product and the fact that they are reusable which is more environmentally friendly. I used to use micellar water on a daily basis to remove my makeup, but I would use the disposable cotton pads. Due to the waste and impact on the environment I switched to using a face halo which is a micro fibre reusable cleansing pad.

I have these reusable eco pads ways to use and gentle on your skin. I use this in conjunction with garnier micellar water. I tip a small align I tot he pad and then swipe a few times over my face to remove my makeup. I then cleanse my face like normal in the shower. I find this works exactly like the disposable cotton pads. It removes my makeup in the same way. It’s actually better as I find these more gentle on my face. These pads are super soft and gentle.

There are two sides to the pad. I haven’t worked out what the difference is apart from the fact that one side is pink and one side is white. The pink side is ever so slightly softer but it still removes my makeup in the same way and I don’t notice any difference.

To clean my pad I use dove soap and run it under hot water. It cleans it pretty well. If there are stubborn stain I’ll just chuck this in the washing machine.

I’ve used this for waterproof mascara and liquid lipstick and it’s removed it without any trouble too. For a full face of makeup I find I need to use both side of the pad. There are three in the pack which lasts ages as I really only need one seeing as they are reusable and I wash mine daily.

Overall I’ve really enjoyed using these and they are a really affordable price too. I highly recommend these if you want to be more environmentally friendly

They do exactly what the say they’ll do. They’re a good size so you can get in a few days before the washing machine, they rinse easily, and the make up comes off so easily. Great packaging, good there are three to manage the cycle while in the wash.

On opening the box my first thoughts were how soft, fluffy and what a great size these pads were, this also made me concerned that there would be a lot of product wastage from it soaking into the voluptuous pad. This was not the case at all, I only needed a small amount of product and it spread refreshingly over my skin without issue. Lastly, these are of course eco friendly, which is a huge tick.

Whoever thought of these are genius! I've been using micellar water for a long time now to remove my makeup and usually go through alot of makeup remover pads. The Micellar Reusable Eco Pads come in a pack of 3 they are so soft and gentle on my skin and very durable. At the start I found them a bit slippery to hold but did get used to them and now I love them. They are so easy to clean with just soap and water the makeup just washes off, you just leave them to dry and they are good to use the next day, infact up to 1000 washes which is so good on the environment! The only thing I found was I had to wash the foundation off the eco pad before removing my eye makeup cause it just got too dirty but having it a bit damp didn't matter when removing my eye makeup anyway. I'm really happy I got picked to trial this product and will definitely be purchasing these when I need more.

I absolutely LOVED these!

The packaging was a simple cardboard box containing three reusable pads. These pads supposedly last for up to 1,000 washes each so you have some serious value in this box!

The pads are gloriously soft and fluffy, without leaving any fluff on your skin when you use them.

I did notice that my mascara did start to mark the pad slightly but I was washing it thoroughly with soap and hot water after every use and it started to fade. I found that I did have to put some effort in with taking off my makeup, even though it claimed you simply swipe the pad across.

Combined with the micellar rose water, the pad did foam/bubble the micellar water up slightly so it felt like it was a cleanser. I also used the pad with my regular cleaner and loved it.

I will definitely keep using these!

OMG I couldn't get over how soft these were! I just wanted to rub them all over my face haha. Which I suppose is good, as that's exactly what they're for..

If you have the Face Halo or similar, these are a bit different. These are more lightweight and much more gentle, perfect for everyday use. Whereas I only really use my Face Halo to take off my cake face makeup haha.

I use these when I apply micellar water after already cleansing my face. It's good because you can see the leftover makeup/grime it removes too!

As for washing, I'm lazy and just chuck them in with my towels/linen haha. But you could easily hand wash them too. Just make sure to pull them back into shape and lay them flat to dry them.

As someone who uses micellar water every day (usually multiple times a day, especially in this humidity!) I feel soo much better knowing that I'm not contributing to the waste I used to with disposable cotton pads.

These are great! I've struggled with using Micellar water with cotton pads in the past, often finding that I haven't been able to get my face completely keen despite what feels like scrubbing. The Eco pads, however, make short work of your makeup, wiping away foundation and eye makeup quickly and easily. I used the pink side for my first clean and the white side for a second clean so I could see that I was removing all traces of my makeup before finishing my cleanse. The Eco pads were easy to clean after use - a quick scrub with some soap and a rinse and they were done. I'd certainly recommend these pads as complementary to your micellar water cleanse, and the bonus is they're much better for the environment than disposables.

I was really impressed that each pad lasts up to 1000 washes. This is great for the environment and there are 3 in the pack. When I opened the pack I was amazed at how soft and fluffy the pad was. There is a pink side and a white side. The box didn't specify if they had different uses so I used the white side. I did try both and had the same results so don't think it matters. Probably personal preference. Really easy to use, wipes make up off easily, a gentle rinse after each use and handy to pop in the washing machine occasionally to prolong life. I had to use soap on the odd occasion to clean but came off easy.

I would definitely recommend to help eliminate single use cotton pads in the waste.
