Best Soap for Exfoliation
Exfoliation in a soap context means texture. A loofah soap gives a more thorough-feeling body wash because the natural loofah adds grip to the bar. It is best for areas like feet, elbows, and knees rather than delicate areas or daily face use.
Our recommendation
Glycerin Base
Our loofah soap uses a glycerin base because glycerin rinses clean and keeps the bar feeling light. Use light pressure and let the texture do the work. For everyday full-body bathing, keep a smooth glycerin or goat milk bar alongside it.

Common questions
Is loofah soap good for daily use?
It can be used as often as your skin is comfortable with the texture, but many people prefer it a few times a week on feet, elbows, and knees. A smooth bar is better for daily full-body use.
Should I use loofah soap on my face?
We recommend using loofah soap as a body bar. For the face, a smooth glycerin or goat milk soap is the better choice.
How do I store loofah soap?
Keep it on a draining soap dish and let it dry between uses. The loofah holds water, so avoid leaving the bar in a puddle.
What is the difference between loofah soap and regular soap?
Loofah soap has a natural textured insert for a more thorough-feeling wash. Regular soap is smooth and better suited to everyday full-body bathing.
