You can make quite an effective softening filter that is grease free by stretching a small peice of nylon stocking material (black seems to work best) over a filter ring, and then attaching it in place with hot glue. After that, burn a few holes in the nylon with a lit cigarette so that you get a mix of sharp and diffused light to the lens. If you burn a hole dead center, then the softening will vary by aperture.
