Among all bathing accessories, loofahs are the best at exfoliating. Your skin needs regular exfoliation because dead skin cells can accumulate and make your skin look dull, flaky and patchy. A body loofah will remove these cells making your skin smooth and soft. It opens up your pores and allows them to breathe. In addition, you can optimally use the shower gel when you squeeze a body wash into a loofah instead of rubbing it with your hands. The soap will lather and spread all over your body easily. In this way, you can avoid overusing your shower gel. It enhances your bathing routine and puts you in a better mood.
When it comes to exfoliating the skin, loofahs create the perfect balance between scrubbing away dead skin cells and not being too harsh and aggressive on your skin. A loofah's soapy nature makes it superior to washcloths and sponges. A washcloth will not be able to spread the soap and clean your entire body as a loofah bath sponge can.
Loofahs are specifically used to exfoliate the skin and cannot be part of your everyday bath routine. For normal skin, it is recommended that you use the loofah 2-3 times every week. Some people tend to have oily chests and backs. If this is the case, you can exfoliate your back and chest every day with a loofah bath brush. If you have sensitive skin, it's recommended to exfoliate your skin once a week to prevent irritation.
When you get into the shower, dampen the loofah with some lukewarm water, then add a coin-sized amount of body wash to the loofah. Work the body wash into the nooks and crannies of the loofah and create a nice fluffy lather out of the body wash. You now have a cloud of foam. Rub this ball of soap all over your body in a circular motion. This also helps in blood circulation and keeps your skin healthy. After you are done, rinse off all the soap from your body and put the loofah aside. Remember to store the loofah carefully, as it can easily attract bacteria because it is filled with moisture. Wash the loofah completely and leave it in a separate place to dry. Just like your toothbrushes and razors, you need to swap out your loofahs. You should change them every two months to make sure you are not rubbing old bacteria onto your skin.
