Questions about Traditional African Net Sponge

What is an African net sponge?
It's a traditional exfoliating net washcloth, ours imported from Nigeria. The stretchy net lathers soap and exfoliates for a deep body cleanse that leaves skin looking smoother and more radiant.
How do I care for the net sponge?
Rinse it thoroughly with water after each use, then hang it by the attached cord to dry. Letting it dry fully between showers keeps it fresh.
Is it good for exfoliating?
Yes. The net texture exfoliates as you wash, which is why people use it for a deeper cleanse than a regular washcloth. Use lighter pressure on sensitive areas.
What colors does it come in?
Eight: Black, Blue, Brown, Gold, Pink, Purple, Red and Teal. Choose your color from the options when you add the sponge to your cart.
What soap works best with it?
Any bar or liquid soap works. A moisturizing bar soap pairs well, since the net builds a rich lather and the soap helps balance the exfoliation.
