Description
Go sustainable with this handy green-goose set, consisting of a cotton swab and a make-up applicator, together in a sustainable bamboo take-along box.
Sustainability in the Netherlands
Billions of cotton swabs and makeup applicators are produced and thrown away every year. Due to the pollution that this entails, the Dutch government has therefore decided that from 2021 it will be prohibited to sell disposable plastic cotton swabs. So switch to a sustainable alternative now!
Using the reusable swab / makeup applicator
Use your latest purchase the same way you use your old swabs. Only this time you don't throw them away after use: you wash them! The eco-friendly sticks are easily washable with lukewarm water. Simply run them under the tap and gently rub the dirt off. This means your cotton swab is ready for the next use.
Features:
Durable eco-friendly material
In handy sustainable bamboo box
Reusable, so cheaper than disposable
Also nice as a gift!
Bamboo
Sustainability and bamboo have been linked for a long time. It has been talked about for over 10 years and several studies have been done in recent years. Bamboo is mainly seen as a sustainable alternative because of the large amount of co2 that bamboo filters from the air. Furthermore, bamboo grows very quickly, so you have more yield and therefore less environmental impact than with traditional materials.
Bamboo filters a lot of co2 from the air
Bamboo has a growth cycle of four to five years
Bamboo generates up to 35% more oxygen than an equal volume of trees
Bamboo is recyclable
Bamboo is very strong and very flexible
