Hi Jane,
when on hols in USA a few years ago I came across a solution called ROR (residual oil remover). Pricey but works a dream, and it shifts residue from finger prints almost instantly, and does not smear. I always use microfibre cloth, and have 2 colours, one for putting on, another for polishing off. All are washed before use, and as already mentioned, washed frequently. I spray the cloth not the lens to apply as it saves spraying the other parts of the lens. In my camera bag I keep all in a small zippy plastic bag - seems to me there is no point having cleaning stuff picking up contamination accidentally.
If you want minimum space, use once option, have a look at sealed sachet wipes by manufacturers such as Zeiss etc.
ROR is now available in UK.
