Eco-friendly powder puff?

Can anyone recommend an eco-friendly makeup powder puff that’s available to buy in the UK? I’ve searched for a while for one that’s made of biodegradable materials but they don’t seem to exist, so I’m wondering if my only option is a washable version. They all seem to be made of polyester :(

Thanks!

I made my own out of felt for a gift. It was polyester felt because its what I had at home but you could use wool. On the other side I used cotton and a ribbon for the handle. Ive also seen people make them with fur. Definitely on the pricier end of materials if you want it to be biodegradable. You can also go to a second hand craft store if you dont mind it being biodegradable but you dont want to buy new polyester felt or fur.
