I just think maybe some that was written here may have been taken the wrong way, but I know it wasn't any of your intentions at all! I am sorry on my behalf as well. :( I'm a little confused on what you said though, Ashley, are you disagreeing about a wash cloth that Nat wrote about or what I said in the post? When you say "she", did you mean me? :-P I'm a little confused, 'cause I don't remember writing about washcloths, haha! But either way, I agree with both of you - some people prefer washcloths, and that's totally fine! I was just writing what I know and I do welcome tips from readers, in fact I ask for it - it helps us all out. :) Like you said Ashley, I do agree that washcloths may be harsh for those with ultra sensitive skin, and I do agree with Nat that it doesn't have to be used for exfoliating purposes, especially if it's very soft. :D OK... group hug now! :D Oh, Ash and Natalie, don’t fight! :( Your comments are all welcome here, like you both said, I open the post for everyone and was just sharing some tips I know, hoping to help those wondering out!

I simply told her that the technique she uses likely wouldn't work for those of us with sensitive skin. How is that criticism? I think that stating the fact that it's not a suitable idea for those with sensitive skin is helpful, because as you said "there are other people reading this". Which means that perhaps women with sensitive skin are reading this, and it's beneficial for them to know that it's not a very suitable technique for their sensitive skins. Had I been critical, I would have said something childish like "pft, hot washcloth? What, are you stupid? That is totally unsafe for the skin". Which, clearly, i didn't. If I came off in a different light, then that definitely was not my intention. Obviously it works for her, and I'm glad it does! But, that doesn't mean that I cannot voice my opinion on how it will not be very suitable for women with sensitive skin. I wasn’t “critical”.

I use it to apply and remove product, to massage it into the skin. I don’t think its fair for you to be critical of advice that’s offered just because it doesn’t suite your skin type. There are other people reading this than yourself, surely that’s the point? Muslin clothes don’t need to be exfoliating, i dont use it for its exfoliating propertys.

The hot water can help loosen up what is in the pores, hence the "open", and cold water will usually shock the pores "closed". 2) This technique is a no-go for us gals with sensitive skin. Using something very hot or very cold on the skin can lead to minor traumas like broken capillaries and overall irritation :( Believe me, I've tried and failed in the past. Muslin cloth.. is that exfoliating at all? I have some microfibre cloths that I use at the gym as my sweat rags (everything else is too rough!) but I've been thinking of using them once a week to exfoliate in place of my scrub, and just use the scrub once a week. How soft are muslin cloths? 1) Pores don’t actually open or close, as they do not possess the mechanisms to do so.

Also i love muslin washclothes and the Evelom clenser range!! Hi,

I hadn't seen much result in it, though, and your post got me thinking- maybe it was because I didn't leave it on! I've tried this for a few days now, and my skin looks considerably clearer.
