Swipes by Sophie - reusable makeup wipes for sale
Posted on behalf of my daughter:
Hi, I’m Sophie and I’m 9 years old.
Ever since I was 4, I have been asking Mum if I can have a market stall to make and sell things. Finally, she has said yes!
We have been learning about sustainability at my school, and I wanted to make something that would help reduce waste. When my mum ran out of her cotton wool pads that she uses for her makeup, she thought she might make some out of cotton, instead of buying a new packet. I asked if I could help, and had so much fun I decided to make them for my stall.
Mum has also knitted some out of cotton that are nice to use as well.
I hope you will buy some of my swipes so I can keep having fun sewing them, and help you make less rubbish.
If you’d like to buy some, just send my mum a private message, or contact me on my Facebook page (search for Swipes by Sophie)
Thanks!
Sophie
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
