The greener alternative to cotton wool
Cotton wool is one of those environmental hazards it's easy to overlook. I'm sure even Gwyneth Paltraw doesn't think too hard about the state of landfill as she's scrubbing off that stubborn bit of mascara.
But if you'd like to be a bit more responsible with your beauty regime, Nigel's Eco Store has the answer. This colourful little set of washable cleaning pads will work just like cotton wool, but can be washed and re-used to prevent waste. They come complete with their own special washing pouch so they won't go the way of your odd socks, and cost just £5.95.
