The argument against those cloths is that if you reuse them and there's dust on it from a previous clean, that can scratch your lens. The lens tissues are use once then throw away.

Similar to Peter, I use a rocket blower to blow off dust first. Then lens tissue one wipe, throw away. Then another blow to get rid of tissue fibres. That does it 95% of the time.

If there's a spot on there still, maybe breath on lens and another tissue wipe and blow.

Any tougher than that, the lens pen comes out. By now there shouldn't be any dust on the lens pen to potentially scratch next use.
