I made some bathroom wipes for dabbing dry, damp (only) and it saves on toilet roll and the chemicals in the paper. It might seem gross but years later I am still using them - no smell. I wash at 40C / 104F or sometimes 50C / 122F.
The joy of using them - brushed cotton / flannel, they are so soft and gentle.
If you are thinking about making both you will realise there is no confusion when the face wipes are 2 inch square and the bathroom wipes are much larger - any size you prefer.
Thank you for all of these excellent videos, they are so helpful. ❤

I’ve never heard of anyone doing this but I think it’s genius!

I just found your videos. I’ve been making cosmetic pads for quite awhile now, but I cut up old but soft towels and serge the edges so they don’t ravel. I got tired of the store bought ones that would come apart while using them or my stores were always out of stock. Now I noticed they have them in stock but went way up on the price, so I was so glad I had made my own. I only use the store bought ones when I travel now.

Nice little flannel squares.

What kind of fabric material would be suitable, I reckon not all like polyester? .

[@CatherineSews]

Definitely a cotton flanelette.🤗
