These Cotton Pads Are Soft, Smooth and So Easy to Use

If you’ve got several steps in your skincare routine, these specially designed pads are meant for you. There are two different types of pads in each package—the first a compressed cotton pad that’s ideal for removing any dirt or oil and the second a sponge cotton pad that doesn’t absorb most of the product you’re using. The latter is great for applying a toner or essence as its unique delivery system lets the skin naturally absorb the formula.

These organic cotton rounds are an Amazon bestseller for a reason. Made of 100% certified organic cotton, the naturally breathable rounds are ideal for all skin types, especially those who tend to be sensitive. Because one side is slightly textured than the other, you have the choice to go for a bit more exfoliation, especially when deep cleaning. Plus, the pads are fragrance- and chlorine bleach-free.

We love these cotton pads for their sturdy thickness—they’re great for applying any of your liquid skincare products, including toners and essences. Users also find that makeup removing oils work well with the material. Reviewers love the high-quality feel and performance. Their biggest tip is to stock up.

Created with premium cotton and silk, these rich cotton pads feel like luxury on the face. The ultra-high-density silk helps to break down makeup, dirt, and oil for a clean, smooth canvas. One reviewer reports that these aren’t like other cotton pads as these are thicker, softer, and more durable.

Fussy skin? These unbleached cotton squares are exactly what you need to cleanse and tone your skin. Because these are thicker, there’s less scratching and pilling, which means less irritation on your face. Users highly recommend pairing these squares with toner as it doesn’t absorb all your products, so the toner actually ends up on your face.

Hello, maximum absorption. These wonderfully soft and smooth squares help to evenly distribute product all over your face without wasting it. Almost every reviewer raves that they’d never go back to another drugstore alternative again. Because they don’t shed, you won’t find any excess cotton on your face after application—a big win in our opinion!

This dual-sided cotton round is perfect for everyday use—use the textured side with micro-beads to gently exfoliate and the smoother, embossed side to apply products such as creams and toners. Because the rounds are so gentle, they can be used daily and on sensitive skin. Bonus: The stitched edges keep the product from pilling and leaving behind excess fabric on your face.

Reviewers love that although these are considered “basic” cotton rounds, they do the job and do it well. One user notes that she typically needs 3-5 rounds, but 1-2 of these pads get it done. Made of ultra-soft cotton, the pads feel comfortable and smooth over the face.

Are those angels we hear as we swipe this cotton pad across our face? Probably. Triple-layered and heavenly soft, these insanely bouncy pads literally feel like clouds on your face. The middle layer is made of entwined elastic fibers, making this pad strong but plush. Use with your favorite cleanser, toner, or lotion.

With three packs included in each purchase, you’ll be completely stocked up. Created with 100% cotton, these pads are gentle on the skin, but efficient at dispersing your product-of-choice all over the face. One reviewer finds that these pads are also perfect for removing nail polish—she used just one on all ten of her fingers.
