The Body Shop Exfoliating Skin Towel - Body Polisher - 1 Count

I bought this item decades ago at a 99c shop and I thought that it would never wear out. When it unfortunately started to tear a few years ago, I replaced it with the Solux, which was the closest thing that I could find. It took a few showers for me to get used to the Solux, which is more abrasive than the Body Shop cloth, but I did give it a favorable review after I learned to use it with less force. Both brands are nice and long, thin, and strong. So if you need to make either one longer, depending on your body size, it's easy to sew two units together. However, I do prefer the Body Shop cloth over the Solux and I'm glad that I finally found it. In addition to being less abrasive, the BS brand can hold the lather longer for a soapier bath.

I really like this "scrubby". It is very effective, not too rough & can be used dry too. Long enough to stretch & scrub your back or be used like a bath puff (a super one tho!). I don't like letting things like this to stay damp (yuk) so I rinse it out & hang to dry. The reason I gave it 4 stars for value, is that after about a month, I washed it carefully in the machine, and it lost it's exfoliation quality. Still was usable, but much softer. I will keep buying them out of necessity, and I'll stay with the Body Shop brand because I've had bad luck buying the cheaper ones.

This 'towel' works great! As mentioned in at least one other review, liquid (not bar soap) soap should be used with it. It's long enough to reach all areas, cleans/exfoliates very well without damaging skin, works up a good lather with just a bit of soap, and rinses out very easily.I've used the Vic's face cloth for at least 20 years and it was the best product I had found for my face. Now, I only use it when I'm in a hurry (it works well with bar soap and can readily be tossed in the wash); my first choice is this towel, which I use on my face and pretty much everywhere else.Update (8/2012): I use my Vic's face cloth on my face and this towel elsewhere. For the face, take care to not use it too vigorously, as otherwise it can be a bit harsh. It can be cleaned readily in a washer with cold or warm (not hot) water if first placed in a bag designed to protect delicates. Such bags can be readily found at 'bed and bath' stores. To work up the best lather for use, wet the towel before and after adding the soap, then manipulate to create the foam.

This is a nice exfoliating towel, but it wasn't as nice as a Body Shop version I bought years ago. I'm not sure if soap and time have perhaps played roles in softening mine. This one is slightly shorter at 36 inches, which I felt was not quite long enough. I would like to see one that is 48 inches since I am quite tall. I bought this for an elderly friend who also needs more length since she has limited mobility.

I love how my skin feels after using this towel, smoother than any other product I've tried. It makes good use of just a bit of my liquid cleanser, and is easy adjusted to different body parts. I don't always have good arm movement to reach my back, but this does the job well. The only down side is that a few strands of thread work loose at the edges and are annoying. May buy a few for gifts.

Where has this been all my life and how am I just discovering it in my late 30s's? This would have been so handy in my younger years for the middle of the back area after working out. I absolutely love it. After using it for a couple months the sides are starting to unravel which is a big disappointment, but overall I'm very happy with it. It lathers up beautifully and dries quicker than a traditional loofah, so it does not grow mold or mildew. The texture does take some getting use to, but I just love how it exfoliates my back. I would definitely recommend it over the traditional loofah.

This exfoliating towel is a very awkward length, I didn’t expect it to be so thin and I honestly did not find this extremely easy to use. With that said, I do think it exfoliates and for the price it’s worth a try. This just didn’t work great for me personally but I don’t think it’s a bad product.

I love this exfoliating towel better than the others, been using this brand for a very long time, the skin feels so much smoother after using this towel. Such a cleaner feel. I then apply my lotion and just relax afterward. I received my package in a timely manner. The price is not bad for this great quality towel.
