Round Shape

A palm-sized round pad with a hand strap. Soft loofah on one side, woven towel on the other. Slip your hand through the loop, and you've got grip on a piece that's small enough for control and soft enough that you don't have to think about pressure. It's the loofah for the person who doesn't want a glove or a strap, just something simple they can pick up and put down.

Where it shines

It's the pad most people reach for after a few weeks of trying everything else. Small enough to navigate around shoulders, collarbones, and the back of the neck. Soft enough that you can use it on the chest without irritation. Light enough on the skin that it works on the face too, where a regular loofah would be too much. One product, a lot of bathroom corners covered.

Why we pick a softer fiber for this one

Loofah varies in texture, even within the same harvest. For the Round Shape we sort by hand and keep only the softest pieces, the ones that feel closer to a damp washcloth than a scrub. That sorting is the difference between a pad you'll use every day and one that ends up in the back of the bathroom drawer.

Other things it does well

• Lifting cleanser, makeup, or sunscreen with the towel side
• Quick face exfoliation on mornings when you'd skip a separate tool
• Cleansing the neck and décolleté where bigger loofahs are too aggressive
• Spot exfoliation on knees, elbows, or anywhere a smaller pad gives you more control
