★★★★★ S.Basic smaller size loofah with handles
At £3.99 this basic loofah with handles is really perfect for a good back/body scrub. The measurements are 72 x 32 x 1.5 cm and although this is smaller than others I have seen, it does the job intended. It has strong rope type handles to hold on either side. The middle section (on the one side) is…

★★★★★ B.Brilliant
Lovely, they do exactly as they are supposed to and this is excellent value given how many you get. I gave some away and just kept a couple for myself to use. Brilliant. Soft enough that they don't feel scratchy when you're washing but do feel like you're getting some exfoliation too. They are big…

★★★★★ I.Good Quality Gloves
This scrubbing mitten really gets my skin smooth. It does not leave me red or irritated, but I can totally feel it deep cleaning and getting rid of all the dead skin. The gloves feels really good woven design, super durable, not too hard, not too soft. And the back scrubber is very relaxing to use.

★★★★★ B.Practical, pretty, better for the environment and very affordable
I have put my soap in the bag and use the drawstring to hang it so it can dry. It dries quickly and makes showering easier for me because I am not scrambling to find my dropped soap because I am using this bag. I have problems with my back and legs etc... and drop so much stuff. This little bag is…

★★★★★ N.P.but the reviews weren't always good. Certain products would roll up
I read a lot of reviews for this kind of product before settling on this one. It was more expensive than most of the products I looked at, but it was totally worth it. I have mobility issues, and as a result, I am unable to reach my back to clean it properly. There are a lot of products that can…

★★★★★ R.Quite a rough scrubber!
Having discovered this same pair of items in someone else's home I had to have them. I find nearly all these type of things too soft but this is really satisfying. A bit rough to use on every occasion but brilliant when you need a proper scrub that leaves you refreshed.

The rounded shape is nice to hold and the holes are really efficient at removing dead skin from the heels, leaving them smooth and soft.The little cotton strap is a bonus, means I can hang it up to dry in the shower.

A few things often kept alongside this piece.
About this product
The soft cleanse it brings
- The dry sponge turns plump and springy once soaked, so it glides rather than drags.
- The teardrop shape sits neatly in the hand and reaches around facial contours with ease.
- Its porous surface gives a light polishing feel, suitable for a simple morning or evening cleanse.
- The bamboo charcoal gives the sponge its smoky grey tone and a more deep-cleansing character.
- It suits a pared-back bathroom ritual, especially if you prefer fewer tools and a softer touch.
Konjac fibre with bamboo charcoal
Konjac is a plant fibre long used across East Asia, both in food traditions and in skincare tools. Here, the vegetable fibres are formed into a facial sponge and paired with bamboo charcoal, a familiar skincare addition for those who like a clean, fresh-feeling finish.
Texture, shape and feel
The sponge is dark grey to black, with a visibly porous surface and a rounded teardrop form. Once hydrated, it becomes soft and flexible, making the pointed end useful around smaller areas of the face while the rounded side covers broader areas.
How to use and look after it
Soak the sponge in water until fully softened, then massage over damp skin in gentle circles. Use it on its own for a very minimal cleanse, or add your usual facial cleanser if you prefer.
After use, rinse well, press out excess water without twisting, and leave it to air-dry somewhere ventilated. Replace it when it starts to break down, lose its bounce, or no longer feels fresh.
A small East Asian skincare ritual
Konjac sponges are part of a simple skincare tradition that values softness, water and repetition over harsh scrubbing. The konjac plant is also known for its use in foods such as konnyaku, while its fibrous structure lends itself naturally to sponge-making. In facial care, the appeal is quiet and practical: a plant-based sponge that softens with water, feels gentle in the hand, and turns cleansing into a small daily pause.
Weight and details
Each sponge weighs 15 g. It is made from vegetable fibres of konjac, with bamboo charcoal, and is produced in China.
A thoughtful little bathroom gift
A good choice for someone who enjoys natural skincare tools, low-fuss routines, or a more mindful wash at the sink. It also makes a useful add-on gift with a cleanser, face oil, or soft cotton towel.
