Bathroom Cotton Wool Jars

ORGANISING YOUR BEAUTY buys is the fun part of bathroom tidying - there's no end to the containers available to buy online to house daily essentials like cotton pads and makeup sponges.

The best cotton pad holders not only ensure those essentials are easy to spot and use, they look fantastic on display, too.

Cotton pad holders are a cheap way to make a statement in the bathroom, and there are a range of space-saving solutions available.

Clear acrylic plastic designs are a bathroom staple. These look smart but can also take a beating, as they're virtually unbreakable. They're also easy to clean and don't get dusty easily.

Cotton pad holders with divided compartments - for cotton buds, sponges, cotton balls, etc - are also available in a range of styles and sizes, and work as well in the bathroom as they do on the vanity table.

If you're looking to upgrade your bathroom decor inexpensively, try a lidded glass jar - timeless and stylish, it can give your space a bit of that retro apothecary feel.

You'll also notice that bamboo cotton pad holders are trending: often these come with reusable cotton pads and cotton buds, which are now becoming more popular in reusable, not disposable, form, in an effort to help the environment and avoid unnecessary waste.
