In this study, we consider the positive cluster complex, a full subcomplex of a cluster complex the vertices of which are all non-initial cluster variables. In particular, we provide a formula for the difference in face vectors of positive cluster complexes caused by a mutation for finite type. Moreover, we explicitly describe specific positive cluster complexes of finite type and calculate their face vectors. We also provide a method to compute the face vector of an arbitrary positive cluster complex of finite type using these results. Furthermore, we apply our results to the $τ$-tilting theory of cluster-tilted algebras of finite representation type using the correspondence between clusters and support $τ$-tilting modules.
