Loofah is a natural cleansing sponge, made up of the fibrous skeleton of the luffa plant. It can serve many purposes in your home, as it can replace the traditional plastic shower puff, or even your standard dish scrubby. Natural loofahs create gentle friction, which is great for your body, or table wear. Simply soak them in water to soften, and lather up with your favourite body soap bar, or scrub away on your dishes. They are a great addition to your cleaning routine, and they are eco friendly. You can increase the lifespan of your loofah by air drying between washes...hang it up on the handy cotton string. Our loofahs are bleach free and natural. They measure 4 inches long, thickness varies. When your Loofah has reached the end of its life in your home, please compost.
