hi! I honestly just bought my reusable pads from Amazon and they seem to work fine for me. they definitely absorb more than a regular cotton pad and aren't as soft but definitely more eci friendly. I would also be careful when purchasing products that state they are biodegradable. all products, including plastics are technically biodegradable and can claim that they are. the downside to all biodegradable products is that when they do biodegrade they have the potential of leaving harmful metals and micro plastics behind. look for things that are compostable instead. these products don't leave any harmful waste behind once the biodegrade 😊

Would you consider omitting cotton pads altogether? 😅
I use my hands to pat in the toners, whether hydrating or exfoliating ones. I find that products aren't "used" by the pads, rather fully by me. ☺️

i would omit them but especially with the hydrating toners i find my skin feels really supple and healthy after doing toner masks with the cotton pads and i don’t necessarily want to omit that step altogether
