This deep scrubbing body mitt is crafted from a fabric called Sasawashi, woven from a yarn created from a blend of washi (Japanese paper) and kumazasa, a species of bamboo grass native to Japan historically used for wrapping food for its natural anti-bacterial properties. The inventive textile uses the strengths of washi and kumazasa, producing a lint-free, highly absorbent woven fabric with washing durability equal to cotton. Additionally, it retains its natural antibacterial and deodorizing qualities even after repeated washing.
Washi has a natural ability to absorb body oils, allowing for thorough cleansing without the need for soap. By soaking the mitt in hot water and gently massaging the skin, the body mitt efficiently removes dead skin, leaving it smooth and refreshed. The deep scrubbing mitten is created for people who prefer a coarser texture for deeper exfoliation, for a gentler texture the Sasawashi Body Mitt may be more suitable.
