I read an article about skin care on StyleCunt a few weeks Months! ago and finally got around to trying one of the tips. I cut up a couple microfiber dustclothes (y'all know I never dust, so I might as well use these things for something) and would you believe it? Best face washcloth ever!
The skin on my face feels wonderful. These microfiber washcloths do everything that my exfoliant lotion and nightly skin peel were doing. They're cheaper, reusable, and the container they come in doesn't go into the trash after a couple months of use. Win all around! I cut each cloth into four sections (I used pinking shears), so a package of two cloths will last you fine if you do your laundry once a week.
As an added test, I stopped using all creams on my face (even my daily SPF--I'm just carrying a parasol everywhere), and I'm only using my good old standby for facial soap, Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser. Oh, and the texture of the cloth makes the soap suds up more. So I only use about half the amount of soap I used to.
After the wild success of this microfiber cloth experiment, I'm going to follow another one of their recommendations by purchasing some jojoba oil for an evening moisturizer.
