Review (4/5): Too firm for body wash, but a good skin exfoliator.
These are good for exfoliating, but you can't really use them as a loofah because they're just too firm. I took a chance on them after reading reviews saying they could be soaked in water to soften. I soaked them for 2 hours and they still had very little give. If you want something squishy that you can get a lather out of, these are not the ones for you. I'll still use them for exfoliated, but I think I'll have to purchase another loofah.
