All I do is this: A little blob of lanolin the size of a pea/ cover & shampoo. I just use the lanolin I had from breastfeeding. One $10 tube lasted me 3 years...

The best results I had were with the jellyroll/sidewall fold (http://www.diaperco.com/side_wall_fold.htm) You probably would still benefit with the washcloth...
I've been using the Lansinoh lanolin available in the baby section of most big department stores. It's about $8 for 3-4 oz (I think), but it does last quite...
