10 Best Reusable Cotton Pads UK 2024 | Greenzla, Bambaw and More

If protecting the planet is your main aim, then you'd be hard-pressed to find a pack that does more than this one by GREENZLA. Included are 20 pads made from 100% bamboo that the company claim should last for years, so you won't need to top up your reusables any time soon.

On top of that, you get an organic cotton laundry bag and a recyclable storage box. The latter is a particularly handy accessory as it means you can keep all your pads in one place when they're not in use, instead of them being strewn across the bathroom or mixed up in your makeup bag.  

If you're looking for the ultimate set of reusable pads, we're pretty sure you'll love this assortment - they've managed to provide everything you could possibly need! You get 16 pieces of 4 main colours of reusable pads that can be used up to 1000 times. 

Plus, the price includes a cotton laundry bag and a recyclable storage bag too. Last, but certainly not least, we think the combination of bamboo and velvet cotton will prove to be the nicest to touch and the most competent when cleaning. 

These nifty reusable pads and cloths are just what you need if you often dread having to remove all your makeup at the end of the day. The grey colour allows you to identify what makeup you've taken off, while also being less prone to becoming stained than white. 

At 12cm, they're slightly bigger than our other picks which means you can get the job done quicker! Included in the set are 3 XL double sided makeup remover pads, 2 XL eye makeup remover pads, a headband, and laundry bag. Plus, they're also hypoallergenic, so you can use it even if you have easily irritated skin. 

These gentle pads from John Lewis & Partners can be used for cleansing, toning, or removing makeup. They're made from 100% cotton, so they're going to be a better choice for those who prefer thinner pads. The set includes a pad for every day of the week, so you shouldn't get caught short.

The polyester laundry bag that comes with these pads is a little more robust than the cotton ones usually provided. However, it does take away ever so slightly from their eco-friendly credentials.

Lasting up to an amazing 200 washes, this 3-pack from Face Halo is one of the most durable sets out there. Furthermore, they battle even the heaviest of makeup with just water - you don't actually need a cleanser! 

This is thanks to the special microfibre fabric that's 100 times finer than human hair and super-effective at catching dirt. Though it definitely doesn't come cheap, especially considering the small pack size, but we'd say it's well worth the price if you fancy splashing out!

While there are three different colours of pads here, there are only two different styles included - soft and scrub ones. The scrub ones are best used for waterproof makeup that can be a little stubborn, whereas the soft pads can be used for pretty much everything else. 

Overall, you get 15 pads for less than a tenner, which is incredibly affordable. However, some customers find them a little flimsy and have even resorted to folding them over in order to get the right level of thickness.

These pads by STYLPRO are designed for removing light makeup, machine-washable, and come with a small laundry bag. The fact that they're bamboo means they'll definitely help to save the planet if you switch to these rather than using disposables.

As they're around 8cm in diameter, these pads are just the right size for scrubbing away lipstick or cleansing off concealer. We just wish there were a few larger ones in there too, to mix things up a bit!

Bambaw provides two different styles of pads (all of which are 8cm in diameter) in one pack. There are 12 soft pads for cleaning light makeup, then 4 "scrub pads" for heavy-duty makeup removal and exfoliation. 

While the pads are high-quality, the same unfortunately can't be said for the laundry bag. Many Amazon customers have found that it tears easily, which isn't ideal when its sole job is to survive the washing machine!

There are a few things about this pack from TRIBOO that we like. Firstly, they provide 21 pads in total, which means you've got three weeks to get your act together and wash them before you run out. 

Secondly, the bamboo-cotton combo gives the user the best of both worlds - a soft pad that's highly absorbent. However, some users have found that the pads are a little too thin for vigorous cleansing.

Our first set of reusable pads comes from British brand Revolution, whose mission is to create beauty products that are accessible to everyone. However, you'll have to be quick when shopping as their ranges don't stick around for too long - they're always flying off the shelves!

These microfibre reusable cushions (which is just a more comforting way of saying pad) work well for both AM and PM routines. Unfortunately, there aren't any size specifications provided by the manufacturer and there's no laundry bag either!
