Victoria Beckham's 'obsessed' with this £18 eco-friendly buy
She swears by these for gorgeous skin
We're constantly on a mission to live a greener lifestyle, and that starts with the products we're using at home. So, when we hear a celebrity raving about a must-buy that's also eco-friendly, we're inclined to add it to our shopping baskets immediately.
Which is why we were so excited when Victoria Beckham revealed her simple, affordable, and eco-friendly make-up removing regime.
Speaking on Breaking Beauty Podcast, the fashion mogul shared how much she loves Halo's make-up wipes — and that even her youngest child, Harper, is a fan: 'I love those as make-up wipes. They're reusable and I'm obsessed with them. I use them all the time, and I take them everywhere. Harper loves them as well.'
And VB isn't the only celeb to incorporate eco-friendly products into their cleansing regime, Davina McCall has previously raved about her £9.99 bamboo cleansing pads. The HUKU pads are antibacterial, odour-resistant, anti-fungal and hard-wearing — as well as being 40% more absorbent and cleaner than cotton.
We've also included lots of other household items to help us all on our way to more eco-neutral lifestyles, from beeswax food wraps to recycled loo paper.

She revealed her son Brooklyn's fiancée Nicola Peltz was the one who introduced her to the brand, adding: 'the fact that you can reuse them is great, and being sustainable is key. They take off make-up really, really well. They're like magic. They're soft on your eyes, as well.'
