The zero-waste bathroom is often the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about reducing waste: disposable cotton pads alone account for several hundred items wasted per person per year. Our collection brings together the most popular washable alternatives, designed and hand-sewn in our workshop in Clamart.
Wipes, pads, and gloves: the essentials of a reusable routine
Our washable make-up remover wipes and pads are an excellent replacement for disposable cotton pads for daily make-up removal, while our children's washcloths support the development of independence from a young age. The bamboo fiber bath pouf and soap pouch complete this routine, for a bathroom that produces much less waste without sacrificing comfort.
Washable make-up remover pads: the easiest beauty habit to change
A woman uses an average of 4 make-up remover pads per day, which means nearly 1,500 items thrown away each year. Our washable pads and wipes, made from Oeko-Tex certified cotton and GOTS certified organic cotton depending on the range, replace this habit without changing your beauty routine: they can be machine washed in a laundry net and reused hundreds of times.
Basket, laundry net, and soap pouch: organizing your routine
A zero-waste routine can be maintained long-term with the right containers: the padded fabric basket stores wipes and pads daily, the laundry net protects these same accessories in the washing machine, and the soap pouch accompanies solid shampoos and soaps when traveling.
Oeko-Tex materials, designed for the skin
Cotton, bamboo viscose, eucalyptus Tencel: every material used in our zero-waste bathroom collection is Oeko-Tex certified, guaranteeing the absence of toxic substances in contact with the skin, including baby's.
Handmade in Clamart since 2012
The DafdePique workshop handcrafts all of these accessories in small batches, in an artisanal rather than industrial approach. This choice allows for rigorous quality control, piece by piece.
Where to start your zero-waste bathroom routine
A set of washable make-up remover pads and a laundry net are enough to get started. You can then add a bamboo bath pouf or a soap pouch for travel.
Frequently asked questions about the zero-waste bathroom
How long do washable wipes or make-up remover pads last?
Properly cared for, in a laundry net and without the use of dissolvent, our wipes and make-up remover pads generally last several years of daily use, with a slight change in texture over washes without significant loss of effectiveness.
Do you need a large set of wipes to get started?
Not necessarily: a set of 7 wipes or pads is usually enough to cover a week of use between two washes, making it a good starting point before possibly completing your collection.
Also find our zero-waste cleaning products to easily maintain all of these accessories.
A more responsible beauty routine, without sacrificing comfort
Adopting washable make-up remover wipes and pads changes nothing about your usual beauty routine: the soft texture of cotton or bamboo sponge offers comparable, or even superior, comfort to that of classic disposable cotton, while avoiding its continuous waste production.
These accessories also find their place in a child's or teenager's toiletry bag, raising awareness from a young age about more responsible consumption, without ever compromising on the softness necessary for still fragile skin.
