Face Cloth
The face cloth is the smallest variant in the towelling family - and at the same time a true all-rounder in the bathroom. At around 30 × 30 cm it is compact enough for precise use on the face and hands, yet at the same time large enough for versatile applications. Anyone who values high-quality care in the detail knows the face cloth as an unassuming but indispensable piece in the daily care ritual.
At Interior Couture you will find face cloths from five renowned premium manufactories. On request we will gladly send you free fabric samples so that you can check the feel before purchasing - you can reach us by telephone on +49 (0) 221 630 606 12.
What is a face cloth?
The face cloth (also known as a flannel) is the small, square towelling cloth with the standard size 30 × 30 cm. It is the counterpart to the wash mitt and fulfils many of the same functions - just without the glove-like shape.
The face cloth is particularly suitable for:
- facial cleansing - gentle and controlled
- cleansing the body in the shower
- baby care - gentle and safe to use
- cleansing sensitive areas of skin
- as a small, decorative guest towel in the guest toilet
- for travelling - compact in your luggage and versatile in use
Anyone familiar with face cloths and wash mitts knows: both have their place. The face cloth can be handled more freely and used more precisely, while the wash mitt offers more grip thanks to its glove shape. Many buyers keep both to hand.

Lacoste Home - sporty chic

How many face cloths do I need?
A recommendation for the basic set:
- Per person: 4 to 6 face cloths in stock - so there is always a fresh one to hand
- For higher hygiene requirements: more (acne, sensitive skin, baby care)
- For guests: 2 to 4 face cloths in a subtle colour
- For travelling: 1 to 2 face cloths per traveller
Because face cloths are used directly on the skin, changing and washing them regularly is particularly important. Ideally you use a fresh cloth every day and wash it regularly at 60 °C.
Caring for your face cloths
- wash before first use, ideally at 60 °C
- wash regularly at 60 °C - higher temperatures ensure hygienic cleanliness
- use a colour detergent without optical brighteners
- no fabric softener - it considerably reduces absorbency
- tumble dry on a medium setting - this makes the loops especially fluffy
- allow to dry well between washes - damp cloths encourage bacteria
With good care, high-quality face cloths last for many years. We recommend keeping several in stock and rotating them regularly - this way you always have a fresh one to hand and the wear is spread out.

Frequently Asked Questions about face cloths
What is the difference between a face cloth and a wash mitt?
Both fulfil similar functions but differ in form. The face cloth is a flat cloth with the standard size 30 × 30 cm. The wash mitt has a glove-like shape into which you can slip your hand. The face cloth can be handled more freely and used more precisely, while the wash mitt offers more grip thanks to its glove shape. Many buyers keep both in stock.
What is a face cloth particularly suitable for?
For facial cleansing, cleansing the body in the shower, baby care and for caring for sensitive areas of skin. The face cloth is also useful as a small guest towel in the guest toilet or as a compact travel companion.
How do I care for face cloths correctly?
Wash at 60 °C with a colour detergent without optical brighteners, without fabric softener. Because face cloths are used directly on the skin, regular washing at higher temperatures is important for hygiene. Tumble dry on a medium setting.
How many face cloths do I need?
Per person we recommend keeping 4 to 6 in stock so there is always a fresh one to hand. For higher hygiene requirements or baby care, more is welcome. For guests, 2 to 4 additional face cloths in a subtle colour are worthwhile.
What size are face cloths?
The standard size is 30 × 30 cm - compact enough for precise use on the face and hands, large enough for versatile applications. Some brands also offer slightly differing dimensions - do get in touch.
Are face cloths suitable for baby care?
Yes, high-quality face cloths made from pure cotton are ideal for baby care - gentle on delicate skin and easy to handle. Make sure that the face cloths for babies are free from optical brighteners and harmful substances. Brands such as Weseta Switzerland meet this requirement consistently.
