Product Information

While many people benefit from using an exfoliating washcloth as part of their skincare or shower routine, some people should avoid using them.

Rayon: A synthetic fiber, rayon often is combined with other fibers to increase absorbency and enhance softness. It’s strong and dries soft. While you may want loofah with serious physical exfoliating power to help slough off dead skin and promote circulation, a too-rough loofah can damage the skin. You want your loofah to have a soft, fine grit, explains Ross. “It shouldn’t be too rough, or it can break the skin, leading to irritation, redness, and possibly infection,” he tells Byrdie. Something like the Luv Scrub Mesh Body Exfoliator is ideal.Exfoliating washcloths are available in more than one roughness. Unfortunately, very few manufacturers distinguish them. The only exception here is exfoliating washcloths made for sensitive skin, in which case the texture is slightly softer and less abrasive. Another surprisingly controversial washing best practice is whether to use just your hands, a loofah, or a washcloth. Bamboo: Virtually synonymous with silky softness, bamboo fibers are found in baby washcloths, blankets, sheets, and towels to provide the ultimate soft-skin feel. For those looking to buy fine washcloths, finding bamboo in the material list is a sign the cloths will be smooth and supple.

Dr. Paul Dean, a certified dermatologist at Grossmont Dermatology Medical Clinic in San Diego, suggests another location for your loofah: the dishwasher. Crafted from a unique mesh-like wide-weave nylon, it effectively exfoliates the skin while still being gentle; it’s not scratchy or too rough for everyday use. “It feels like it gets a deep clean like I was scrubbing everything clean,” says tester Rachel Lee. “I was impressed with how effectively it exfoliated; my skin felt rejuvenated and so soft after. It noticeably helped with any skin texture/bumpiness!” It’s also important to wash your body to meet social and professional standards. Many workplaces and employers require good hygiene practices.
