Create a luxuriously rich lather while exfoliating all of your roughest and driest spots with this loosely woven exfoliator from Sasawashi. The open weave of this exfoliating towel allows soap to spread evenly across your body while the oil-absorbing properties of washi paper help to remove excess oil from your skin. It can also be used without soap for a lovely dry exfoliation.
"While we offer several types of face and body scrub towels, this one is my personal go-to. Ultra-light with an open, fish-net-like weave made from Sasawashi’s incredibly durable washi paper and kumazasa yarn, it lathers effortlessly with liquid or bar soap. It creates soft, abundant bubbles almost instantly and feels gentle on the skin while offering just the right amount of exfoliation. Simple, effective, and quietly brilliant." - Yuka Morihata
