Nice addition
Color: yellow
These aren’t the most gentle but a good gentle exfoliation. They are thick enough to keep the soap in. Fits a normal bar soap easily. With the quantity included you’ll be able to share as you’ll not need many yourself since they hold up to washing very well. The color is a nice off white- natural looking.

All natural alternative to loofas
Color: yellow, Color: yellow
I love that they are all natural, plant based, and exfoliating. Mine is already starting to stink a little, so I’ve started making sure that I’m squeezing all the water and soap out after using and it doesn’t smell anymore lol. I prefer these over using loofa with microplastics. They are effective, strong, thick, and size is for small or regular sized soaps. If u have a bigger soap just use the soap first and then lather with this. You will still have to switch out every once in a while (like a loofa). Amazing value for price ⭐️

Great exfoliation
Color: yellow
This does a beautiful job exfoliating, no more flakey legs. And it's gentle enough for the rest of my body. I'm on my 2nd bar of soap in my 1st bag and it's holding up well. I give it a good rinse after each use and hang it on a hook in my shower to dry. Well worth the money.

Extremely satisfied with my purchase.
Color: yellow
The ‘bag’ size is big enough to fit a LARGE (up to a 10 ounce bar of homemade/ handcut soap) bar or many tiny pieces. I am tired of using body wash (full of harmful chemicals) & a ‘pouf’ that may not be getting fully clean after throwing it in the washing machine periodically. The fabric quality is organic, natural & PREMIUM! It has little loops on the fabric which are great for lightly exfoliating & cleaning the skin, has a bead to keep opening closed and the string is long enough to fit around your wrist to hold it easily while bathing or showering. As far as effectiveness, it gets very bubbly if you get the fabric wet 1st & then make some traction (rub the wet bag back & forth onto the wet soap bar) between soap and the bag. For washing, use ‘wash bags’ (which are sold on Amazon & other retailers in many sizes) to keep them from being torn from buttons, zippers, etc on other items in the wash. With 8 in a pack, you should always have a clean one to use, while washing a previously used one. Rinse it out & Hang it after use to fully dry.
