Beauty L’Occitane Verbena Refreshing Towelette £9 uk.loccitane .com Konjac Facial Puff Sponge £8.99 konjacsponge company.com Liz Earle Pure Muslin Cloths, £4.50 for two lizearle.com Face Halo Pro Makeup Remover Pads, £7 boots.com Cocorosa Egyptian Neroli Cleansing Oil, £18 for 30ml cocorosa.co.uk oil, this cleanser smells utterly divine and is a sheer pleasure to massage into skin, brilliant for loosening make-up. Designer’s Guild is another more surprising source of great facial cleansing cloths – although technically, I think they may be flannels! Their Moselle face cloths are perfect, with their chunky waffle weave – super-soft, yet very effective for removing make-up, and they’ve duly become favourites of mine. If you’re looking for something that matches the colour scheme of your bathroom (rather than the plain white or cream of a muslin cloth), you definitely need to check these out: they come in a range of shades from hot pink to sky blue. I also need to tell you about a recent discovery, Face Halo Pro Makeup Remover Pads, £7 each at boots.com. I was completely cynical about these before I tried them. They’re circular pads with a surface a bit like a soft flannel, but they’re made of a material similar to ‘e-cloths’ and when wetted and squeezed, then massaged into the skin, gently yet magically remove every last molecule of makeup – even eye make-up and mascara – without having to use any cleansing product whatsoever. Don’t ask me how they work – they just do. (And each pad, while pricier than a muslin cloth, can be used up to 500 times). Just one warning here: the key with all cloths (and Halo pads) is to ensure for your skin’s sake that they’re washed in a machine regularly – ideally daily, which means you might need a stack of these. You can just about get away with drying a facial cleansing cloth on the aforementioned towel rail overnight – but don’t use a cloth for more than two days in a row before putting it in a hot wash. Damp cloths are breeding grounds for germs that you really don’t want swishing over your precious complexion. But do you know about konjac sponges…? These are also fairly extraordinary. Made from a plant used in Asia for over 1,500 years, a key part of modern by Korean beauty rituals (‘K-beauty’ is now a huge influence on beauty in the West), there are many different konjac sponge options, which are soft to the touch, naturally antibacterial and very, very effective for removing make-up – whether or not you use an actual cleansing product with them. Market leaders are The Konjac Sponge Co. konjacspongecompany.com, who offer a wide range of these; sensitive skins could try the Chamomile & Pink Clay Konjac Sponge, £9.99 – or if you live and/or work in an urban area, check out the Tourmaline Sponge, also £9.99, which is infused with tourmaline gemstone powder to help cleanse and purify. Meanwhile, tapping into the charcoal trend (more of which next month), there’s a Konjac Facial Puff Sponge with Bamboo Charcoal, £8.99, suitable for all skin types. Commendably, The Korean Konjac Sponge Company’s packaging itself is now biodegradable and plastic-free, while the products themselves are made from 100% natural vegetable fibre. So when they’re at the very end of their (long) life, just toss them in the compost. One last eco note: if you use cotton wool – and for eye make-up removal, I would never recommend anything else (even a Halo, except in an emergency) – then be sure to choose organic. (I use Simply Organic cotton pads; they also do balls and rectangular pads.) Huge amounts of pesticides and herbicides are used on cotton, and if it doesn’t say it’s organic, your cotton wool is almost certainly genetically modified, too. And there’s nothing ‘clean’ about that… Jo Fairley is editor of beautybible.com, where you’ll find the results of the 2019 Beauty Bible Awards, highlighting winning products across more than 100 categories, tried and tested by panels of real women. wealdentimes.co.uk 116
