Up-cycled makeup remover pads are meant to be sustainable and effective options. Here’s our verdict on a homegrown platform’s version of it

The set comprises four up-cycled cotton-blend and terry cloth pads

Let’s get one thing straight: we know that sustainability is important, but are all methods and practices, rooted in this concept, practical? Well, we’re on the fence about that answer. In our pursuit of attempting to switch to sustainable, clean beauty alternatives in our daily lives, we came across indie brand Ruby Organics’ latest drop, a set of upcycled cotton reusable cleansing pads, and decided to give it a shot.

Called Take It Off! this set of four pads is made with a zero-waste approach and created entirely with leftover factory scraps of cloth. Over the period of a week, we tested out all four pads, three made of a cotton blend and one of a terry cloth material, with different skincare and makeup removal products, to make sure we had a clear picture of the product’s potential.
