More about our Loofah Soaps

Interesting looking soap right? Well this is Loofah otherwise known as “Luffa”,and it is an extremely great exfoliator for your skin when washing your body. So what is Loofah? This plant is originally from the cucumber family and can be harvested for eating but it is mostly picked to dry out and use as a sponge for its fibrous material. It is mostly used for back brushes or sponges but in some case soap makers such as myself use them inside organic soaps to help exfoliate and massage the skin.

As rough as it may look it is very delicate and we happen to use it in a few of our soaps such as: Mango Coconut Loofah Soap or Lavender Loofah and Grapefruit Lily Loofah.

In addition to being extremely soft the material is completely safe and free of chemicals and substances with bacteria, it’s all natural! Because of this it does not cause inflammation or irritation as other scratchy and rough sponges would. As well as being safe the Loofah naturally soaks up a bit of the essential oils and fragrance in the soap mix to leave your skin smelling absolutely scrumptious.
