microbeads

"Cuentas" are "beads"... and if we add the "micro" affix...

"Microbeads are small, solid, manufactured plastic particles that are less than 5mm and don’t degrade or dissolve in water. They may be added to a range of products, including rinse-off cosmetics, personal care and cleaning products. "
