Many people now use face towels to wash their faces. Towels are prone to bacterial growth, and they require washing and drying after each use, which is quite troublesome. Face towels, on the other hand, are disposable and don't require repeated washing.
Each use is like new, making them cleaner and more hygienic. Face towels have become increasingly common. However, have you noticed any "tricks" when buying them?
Face towels with seemingly similar outer packaging can actually be vastly different. When buying face towels, we might assume that "soft cotton" is the best, but we haven't carefully checked that "soft" ≠ "cotton."
In fact, many people are being misled. Check which "soft cotton" is actually on your face towels. News reports have previously indicated that 21 out of 23 commercially available face towels tested positive for chemical residues. The packaging claims they are skin-friendly, made of plant fibers, or as soft as cotton, but these are misleading terms.
You might assume these soft, skin-friendly towels are made of pure cotton, but a closer look at the label reveals they are actually made of viscose fiber, or even a blend of viscose and other fibers.
Three types of raw materials for face towels:
Face towels on the market are made from three types of raw materials: 1. 100% cotton; 2. Viscose; 3. Viscose + polyester fiber.
Only towels made entirely of cotton can be labeled "cotton soft towel." The other two types are simply called "soft cotton towel." This seemingly minor difference makes a world of difference, and the two types of face towels determine the raw materials used. This also determines the quality of the face towel.
Many people might think that cotton towels made from viscose are bad, but that's not true. Cotton towels made from viscose are relatively affordable, and the user experience is not significantly different from pure cotton towels.
However, if you pay the price of pure cotton for a viscose face towel, it's somewhat of a waste.
The third type of cotton towel, which is a blend of viscose and polyester fiber (polyester), is not recommended. Although it's cheap, you get what you pay for. It's a blended material and the cheapest of the three raw materials.
This type of face towel has very poor absorbency, is not soft enough, is not comfortable to use, and may even shed lint. Viscose fiber is a recycled chemical fiber extracted from wood pulp or bamboo pulp, and is considered a relatively high-quality fiber.
However, polyester fiber is indeed a chemical fiber extracted from plastics.
If you have sensitive skin, using this type of face towel may cause redness, itching, peeling, and sensitivity. Some cheaper, inferior face towels, during the production process, not only use blended chemical fibers,
but may also be soaked in chemical liquids. These residual chemicals can be absorbed through the skin, and long-term use can affect your health.
Therefore, you must carefully check the face towels you use every day and not buy them randomly. A single word can make a world of difference; wasting money and making your skin worse with continued use is a waste.
