Review (5/5): Marvelous!
These things are great, full stop. I have tried and thrown away many kinds of scrubbing cloths and pads, either because they were ineffective or too irritating, or because they became unsanitary in the damp environment of the shower room. These cloths have just the perfect level of abrasiveness to exfoliate without irritation (they feel stimulating rather than scratchy). The mesh-like fabric rinses completely clean and drains and dries quickly. I bunch up the soapy cloth to scrub arms, legs and feet (they are wonderful for scrubbing feet) and use it at full length to wash my back and neck. I purchased the set of three so I can rotate them and run them through the laundry weekly, but I think that if you wash the cloth out thoroughly after every use, with fresh soap, and hang it where it will dry completely, you might not have to launder it at all. My skin feels like silk after using these for just one week: all the flakiness is gone. I have paid a lot of money for full-body exfoliation at spas, and this cloth did the job just as well. (I received what appears to be the authentic Japanese product. The packages are labeled at the top with the name of a distributor based in Hawaii.)
