Organic Cotton Shortage At Dischem

[BhavZ]

Hey guys,

As you can tell by the title, there is a serious shortage of organic cotton from dischem and there are rumours that they may not be bringing them in again.

If I may ask, where are you guys sourcing your organic cotton from?

I noticed the balls were not available at the two dischems I go to here in JHB. Only the pads were available.

from my wife's makeup draw - you can use any cotton, just boil it

Personally I prefer organic cotton and I have tried the boil process and to me it didn't work well, organic cotton was still way way better.

Sometimes they are in rolls and sometime they are in funky colour pad forms - have used all types, one time even took one that was in a carton with a string on - and it worked

Any difference in taste from the organic stuff @denizenx

don't think there's that much of a difference. even with organic i still had an initial bit of weird taste but it goes away quickly enough. will sit tomorrow and with a big glass of water, some of rob's gifted organic makeup pads and normal cotton balls and do a comparison and post it. just to make sure i'm not talking absolute nonsense

one ball lasts a nice time

All jokes aside though, you can get organic cotton balls here

they also have B&M stores around Cape Town

Man they are not cheap though, they are double the price of dischem but when in need price cant be an issue

Melinda has popped them a mail to see if we can buy bulk from them, or at least who their supplier is - see if we can make a plan

That would be nice. I'd also like some organic goodness.
