snot rag

Pocket tissue substitute

A snot rag is a handkerchief or tissue used for blowing or wiping one's nose.

The term is deliberately crude and informal, emphasizing the less dignified reality of what handkerchiefs are often used for.

Just grab a snot rag from the box.

It can also serve as a mildly insulting way to describe any piece of cloth or tissue someone uses for this purpose.
