5 common face washing mistakes that you should avoid
Dr Pratsou added: 'Micro-fibre face cloths are thought to be gentler on the skin, helping to exfoliate for those that have sensitive skin.
'They might therefore be helpful if you wear make up to help remove it at the end of the day.'
Dr Dharamshi agrees that a micro-fibre cloth is a good gentle exfoliator, as is a soft sponge.
However, Dr Kajal Babamiri, a dermatologist at the private CLNQ clinic in Manchester, says we should be putting the face cloth down altogether in favour of simply using our hands to clean with a water and a gentle wash.
She said: 'Definitely use your hands to wash your face.
'A cloth can be too abrasive, you are taking a lot of skin away.
'What you want is to take the dead skin away but not be too aggressive that it actually damages the skin.'
