Description
set of 3. naturally exfoliating, individually wrapped.
the natural loofah is a vegetable. in 1706 the botanist joseph pitton de tournefort introduced the formal botany genus name "luffa", a vegetable of the cucurbitaceae (cucumber) plant family from egypt. Bathing loofahs are made out of mature luffa vegetables, harvested when their green skin has dried sufficiently and separates from the spongy inside. the luffa plant has grown in the northern hemisphere for 9000 years. medical practices in the middle ages stated that scrubbing or exfoliating the skin while having a bath not only cleaned the epidermis, but also helped flush toxins out of the body. in the 19th century the concept of "friction baths" was popularized as an important method for detoxifying the skin. the natural loofah has a spongy, rough texture that makes for great absorption and exfoliation. adding a loofah exfoliation to your daily bathing practice helps remove dry, dead skin cells from the top layer of your skin, creating a softer and healthier surface, while improving circulation and blood flow to leave skin polished and smooth.
how to use:
under warm, running water, fully dampen loofah and apply red flower body wash to surface, work in with hands until lather forms, scrub vigorously in small circular motions over the entire body.
