The problem with single-use rounds
Why Use LastRound?
Softer Than the Bum on a Baby Alpaca
Feels just as good to use as regular cotton rounds. Just add a splash of water to soften it.
Preserve Forests.
LastRound helps conserve forests by reducing the demand for disposable cotton rounds, which contributes to deforestation and habitat destruction.
Minimize Waste & Water Use.
Choosing LastRound reduces plastic packaging waste associated with single-use cotton rounds, contributing to a cleaner environment. Additionally, it takes 10 liters of water to create just one disposable cotton round—so by using LastRound, you'll save both packaging waste and water.q
Save Money.
By using LastRound to its full potential (reusing it 1750 times), you can save over 50 USD compared to purchasing single-use cotton rounds, making it a cost-effective and eco-friendly choice.
How to Use
Easy to Use & Easy to Clean
Step 1. Wet It
The rounds are hard when dry, so simply add a bit of water and squeeze out the excess.
Step 2. Enjoy It
Use with a cleanser, toner, astringent, cream, ointment, or other favorite product.
Step 3. Clean It
Immediately clean with soap and water or run in the machine up to 60°C/140°F.
Step 4. Pop It
Let it dry on a flat surface before popping it back into the case.

Everything You Want to Know
Use & clean your LastRound
LastRound is naturally quite stiff, but it becomes soft and wonderful to use when you add a little water. Squeeze out any excess before adding your remover, toner, or other products (don’t worry, they won’t get diluted and the round absorbs just the right amount).
If you use the rounds for nail polish removal, make sure to keep those rounds separate from the ones you use on your face.
You can wash your rounds by hand after every use. Just add some soap and water and let it dry flat. You can also machine wash (86°F/30°C is best for the environment, but 140°F/60°C is also okay). To keep them all safe and sound, we advice you to use a laundry bag.
Materials & Packaging
LastRound is a round with an epic combination of 70% wood fibers and 30% cotton fibers. They will feel just as lovely to use as regular single-use rounds, but with the added benefit of also being better for the planet. They have a textured surface and great absorption, without eating all of your products.
The case is made from recycled Ocean Bound Plastic that has been collected from beaches and riverbeds. So every case literally saves nature from plastic waste.
Even the packaging is sustainable and made from Cradle to Cradle certified cardboard.
Sustainability & Footprint
LastRound is an awesome substitute for single-use rounds, and with all 22 environmental categories considered, it is 24 times better! After only 34 uses, you break even with the CO2 emissions. LastRound reduces carbon footprint (CO2) by 90%, water consumption by 92%, land use by 99%, and primary energy demand by 90%. One case with 7 rounds replace over 1.750 single-use rounds!
Refills
When your round is no longer usable, you can stick into a flower pot and it will decompose into soil. You can save the case and just replace the round with a refill. If you take good care of the case, it can last 5 years or even longer.
Shipping
We ship from our warehouse in Copenhagen (Denmark). Delivery takes 3 to 7 working days and is carried out by Royal Mail. Shipping costs 4 GBP. For orders over 30 GBP, delivery is free, unless we are running special campaigns.
Care for your LastRound
Your LastRound will replace about 1.750 single-use rounds which means each little round will replace approximately 250 single-use rounds each. Pretty impressive, huh?
After every use, make sure to clean your round with soap and water. If you prefer, you can also wash it in the washing machine together with your laundry. We recommend washing them in a mesh laundry bag, so they don't get lost.
Always store it in the case and keep the case away from heat. Clean the case with hand sanitizer and never in the dish washer.
Design & manufacturing
All of our products are designed and developed in Denmark. LastRound is manufactured in Germany.
Product measurements
LastRound Original and Pro: The rounds measure 6 cm or 2.36'', and the case is 6,7 x 3 cm or 2.64 x 1.18''.
LastRoind Large: The rounds measure 9 cm or 3.54" and the case measures 10 x 10 x 3 cm or 3.9 x 3.9 x 1.2"
Product Case & Ocean Bound Plastic
We proudly make all of our plastic cases with recycled Ocean Bound Plastic. This means that the case is actually made from plastic that was previously polluting the environment but then was collected from beaches and riverbeds and given a new life.
No virgin plastic has been used in the making of the case.
End of product & recycling
LastRound is carefully designed and rigorously tested to last up to 250 uses per round and 1.750 uses per case with 7 rounds.
The case can potentially last longer and be reused with our refills (find them here) but when it’s no longer usable, it can be recycled with plastic. The rounds are made from wood fiber and organic cotton and can be planted in a flower pot to decompose into soil.
The cardboard packaging can enjoy a new life if you recycle it with cardboard.
Single-use products & alternatives
Rounds can be very useful when cleaning the face or for makeup and nail polish removal, but around the world, more than 11 billion single-use rounds are used every year. That's an incredible amount of waste.
Not only are the rounds taking up space in landfills, but even the manufacturing process is bad for the environment with massive amounts of water added, and chemicals such as bleach being used.
Lifecycle analysis & breaking even
LastRound is 24 times better than single-use cotton rounds and 14 times better than single-use organic cotton rounds considering all 22 environmental impact categories. That is pretty dope, in our humble opinion.
After only 34 uses, you break even with the CO2 emissions. LastRound reduces carbon footprint (CO2) by 90%, water consumption by 92%, land use by 99%, and primary energy demand by 90%. One case with 7 rounds replace over 1.750 single-use rounds!
Vegan & cruelty-free
LastRound is completely vegan and we don't test on animals. We love animals and wild life and want to make the planet a better place. This is why we only use recycled Ocean Bound Plastic and choose materials that are kind to Mother Earth.
From the first steps of production to the very end of the product's life, we want to create options that are so much better for the planet and so much more sustainable.
Ocean Bound Plastic
So what is the big deal about Ocean Bound Plastic anyway? Plastic that is polluting nature and in risk of ending up in the oceans, is a danger to marine life and the environment. Luckily, there are organizations, like our partner Plastic For Change, that collect this type of plastic and recycle it.
This is great news, because when you make a purchase with LastObject, we remove 1lb of plastic from nature. Some of this is then used in our cases. Talk about circular!
Love my Last Rounds! I have been using one set for 3 years and finally decided to compost the 1st set and get some new ones. They are convenient, economical & help the plant! Win, win, win!
Love using these to remove nail polish! Works wonderfully and easy to wash.
I used my Last Round Originals until they wore out, and when I replaced them I ordered the Pros because I liked the fact they were black (my originals eventually looked dingy). I am really happy with them--from washing my face to removing make-up, they work really well.
My favorite reusable pads!
that the black ones were on sale before I ordered, I'd have gotten them instead. I still haven't figured out how I managed to lose at least one, but now I can relax and lose more with minimal distress.
Just one minus, theres no refill for the big ones... I think i dont want so many boxes just to have more large rounds and i like them more than smallers.
I’ve used a number of different reusable cleansing pads in the past and these are by far the best. As close as you can get to cotton wool pads. So impressed with some that I bought in the health store that I came back for more but had to buy direct. Only slight downside was that delivery was a little later than expected.
Nice and soft pads. Wash very well. Only negative point is that you can only buy replacements with plastic part, same applies for earswabs. Sometimes having a replacement set without the plastic part would be a help.
Thank you for your review. We are delighted to hear you are pleased with your LastRounds. When they eventually need to be replaced, refills are available to order here: https://lastobject.com/en-dk/collections/refills
