The best type of face cloth depends on your skin type and personal preferences, but generally, a soft, gentle material is ideal to prevent irritation. Different textiles offer unique benefits.
Muslin is a traditional choice, known for its lightweight texture and gentle exfoliation, making it perfect for daily cleansing.
Microfibre is incredibly soft and effective at removing dirt, but it may not feel as natural on the skin and has environmental considerations.
Terry cloth, often found in standard washcloths, is thicker and provides stronger exfoliation, ideal for the whole body but can be too abrasive for delicate facial skin.
For a more specialist option, CloudCloth Organic Cotton Facial Cloths stand out. Designed specifically for the face, especially for sensitive skin. Made from 100% organic, responsibly sourced cotton, it offers two textures: one side is as soft as cotton wool for a soothing cleanse, while the other mimics muslin, providing gentle exfoliation that leaves your skin feeling refreshed and deeply cleansed.
