Bath-Time Heart Loofah

I get loads of people asking me for alternatives to those plasticky body poufs...and for me this is such a great swap from an ethical brand. 

The LoofCo Bath-Time Heart Loofah pads are hand-made in Egypt from natural loofah plants with a helpful Egyptian cotton string loop for hanging. Loofah Plant is a vigorously growing vine from the cucumber family that is rich in durable fibres yet soft and flexible. When ripe, the inside of the loofah fruit develops a network of fibres that are perfect for cleaning and exfoliating purposes when dried. This natural tradition has been passed down through the generations!

• The heart may appear abrasive and a little hard when dry but when wet they swell and soften into a lovely spongy pad.

• Perfect to be used to gently exfoliate skin with soap or shower gel. To keep fresh rinse, squeeze and hang to dry after use.

• An occasional handwash or machine wash will also help to prolong the life. With care these heart loofahs will last for months and are fully compostable at the end of the life.

myReusable says "If a smiley faced loofah isn't for you then a heart hanging up in your bathroom must be!"
