I fully support products that can help our province the next step or make life easier, but if it means that the environment will be affected, I don’t support it. An example of this situation: disposable facial wipes. I know that they are the heroes of gym bags. Remove makeup in a pinch. There is nothing wrong with removing makeup. But for daily use, reusable cotton wheels are an environmentally friendly alternative.
The reasons are as follows: “The biggest environmental problem of makeup remover wipes is their bulk,” Diana Felton, MD, a state toxicologist at the Hawaii Department of Health, told Real Simple. “An organization estimates that 20 million pounds of disposable wipes (including baby wipes and disinfectant wipes) are discarded every day in the United States. Many wipes are discarded in landfills. Despite the claim to the contrary, most of them are not biodegradable. And it will not decompose quickly, and produce too much waste to be put into our landfill.”
The reusable cotton wheel is not only very suitable for green beauty lovers, but also better for your skin. For a long time, dermatologists have been skeptical about using wipes alone to clean their skin, because they often leave dirt and makeup behind, so you must clean again. As I mentioned above, it’s best to save disposable wipes for when you have a hard time.
Did I sell it to you? ! If not, then I urge you to try one of these reusable cotton wheels yourself. Once you realize that they are *even better than non-reusable ones*, you will wonder why not make an environmentally friendly switch earlier.
