Tutorial: Sewing a makeup remover cloth

Are you interested in an eco-friendly approach? Learn to sew your own reusable makeup remover pads with our online guide, combining ease and durability.

In this tutorial, we will show you how to sew a reusable makeup remover pad.

To protect the environment, we offer you Verotex’s advice for sewing your own makeup remover pad. To create your own pad, here is the list of materials you will need:

• Clamps
• Threads
• Cotton canvas
• Microfiber
• Sewing machine
• Pattern (12 / 13 cm)

Step 1: Place your pattern (12 by 13 cm) on the cotton canvas as shown in the video. Then cut out your piece. Repeat the same step on the microfiber.

Step 2: Using the clamps, fold one edge with a double fold of one centimetre on the cotton canvas. Then repeat the operation on the microfiber.

Step 3: Sew the edges of the cotton canvas and the microfiber with your sewing machine.

Step 4: Following the video and using your overlocker, join the two fabrics leaving an opening where the edges are already sewn. Be careful to place right sides together. If you do not have an overlocker, use the zigzag stitch on your sewing machine to overcast the edges.

Step 5: For the durability of your pads, topstitch with your fabric over your previous assembly.

Step 6: Turn the pad right side out.

Now you can remove your makeup while respecting the environment.

Always test on fabric scraps before you start!
