I bought this month's ago and I am shocked to see it still in my needs review category. I was blown away the first time I used it ! Ive always exfoliated but I had never seen or heard of these until scrolling amazon one day. The list of things I love about this is incredibly long. 1 no more handled loofah for my back. This rinses out easily, dries quickly, & exfoliated better than I could have imagined. Unlike what I had used before to replace the back loofah, this doesnt hurt / feel scratchy. The knots definitely have a texture when rubbing, but not hard or painful like alternative products. I love it so much I took my second one on vacation with me to Florida. I wasnt about to be using hotel wash cloths or throw away loofahs after getting a refreshing exfoliation every single day lol I showered at about 9pm the night before we flew back home - and by the time it was time to pack up for the flight back it was completely dry. Dont sleep on these. Im not sure if they are truly authentic as this is the first ive ever used - but if it isn't it's an incredible quality inauthentic one. Read more

Words cannot express how impressed I am with this African net sponge. I have heard great things for a long time and I am so glad I finally tried it. It comes as a two pack, which is great for value for money, and I was able to gift one to my niece, who is equally impressed. The texture provides incredibly thorough exfoliation without feeling harsh. It easily reaches every nook and cranny, makes cleaning your own back effortless, and even works well between toes. The length is perfect for full body use and hard to reach areas. It rinses clean, has no noticeable smell, and dries quickly, which feels much more hygienic than traditional loofahs. This exfoliation power is unlike anything I have used before. Now that I’ve tried it (and threw out my loofah and exfoliating gloves as soon as I got out of the shower!) I can honestly say that I’m never going back! Highly recommend!! It’s also worth mentioning that I frequently deal with shoulder dislocations, and the length and flexibility of this sponge allow me to use it without straining my shoulder at all, which is a (huge!) plus!!!

I will never, ever go back to a wimpy, disgusting loofah. Enter the African net sponge. These are washable, reusable, and last a really long time. They lather up beautifully and can easily be used to scrub *everything*, including your back, in between your toes, and all up in your business. The texture of these is such that it will exfoliate, but not scrape up and damage your skin. It's very satisfying to lather one up and scrub scrub scrub; your skin comes out so soft! Despite showering daily and having "good" hygiene, I have spent my whole life suffering from acne, itching, redness, dryness, eczema, and chronic skin problems. Like many women, I've blamed all of those issues on being allergic to soap and sensitive to fragrance, when the truth is this. I wasn't exfoliating properly, I wasn't moisturizing properly, and ultimately, I wasn't getting clean. Since I started using an African net sponge, all of those problems have gone away. I lather up with a good quality moisturizing body wash (usually Dove) and scrub everything. Then I will either use a sugar scrub OR do a second scrub using the net sponge with a smell-good body wash (my current favorite is from Trader Joes). Double cleansing + exfoliation, followed up with instant moisture (lotion or body oil WHILE You are still wet) is a game changer. I would be remiss not to mention that I learned about this from Black women! They know what's up! Do not mistake this for a loofah or other type of fabric scrub. You want the real deal. Loofahs harbor bacteria (because they never dry out), and knockoffs don't have the same properties when it comes to exfoliation. African Net Sponges have large loops, are very long and stretchy, fully dry between uses, and can go in the washing machine. Read more

I absolutely love these Authentic African Net Sponges! Since incorporating them into my shower routine, I’ve noticed a huge improvement in how soft and smooth my skin feels. They offer just the right amount of exfoliation—enough to leave skin refreshed and glowing without feeling too harsh. Used with a hydrating body wash, they help create a rich lather and make my skin feel truly clean. I follow up with a nourishing body lotion, and the results have been incredible—my skin has never felt better. Pros: • Effective exfoliation: Gently sloughs off dead skin and helps with texture over time. • Quick-drying: Much more hygienic than traditional loofahs or washcloths. • Great lather: Works beautifully with any body wash to create a satisfying foam. • Affordable value: You get two sponges plus a travel bag, making this an excellent deal. • Durable and long-lasting: Doesn’t stretch out or wear down quickly. Cons: • None for me! Just be aware that the texture may take a little getting used to if you’ve never used a net sponge before—but it’s totally worth it. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to elevate their shower game with a simple yet powerful tool. This has officially replaced every loofah I’ve ever used! Read more

My daughter she has eczema, and she said it really helped her skin! She said the lather was very nice and she likes being able to reach those hard spots, and she also said she felt more smooth then if she used a regular rag or loofah. It’s not to harsh on the skin either and she also noted that her skin didn’t flare up like it usually does after taking a shower! Would recommend Read more
