Best shower and bath tools?

Sat, 08/15/2009 - 2:06pm

I used to be a strictly hands and soap girl, with the occasional help from a cheap, scrubby kitchen sponge. Then I was gifted a wonderful loofah cotton body buff from Ecotools, and all that changed.Now the problem is that I'm not quite sure what combination of bath tools to settle on. I've got my trusted loofah, and of course a pair of bath gloves to to protect my hands when applying harsher exfoliators, but I need to get some kind of tool that can reach the hard to reach places (brush or bath towel?) and something that is soft and lathers well. Ideally, I'm looking for bath and shower tools that I do not need to replace until they break, since I hate the wastefulness of sponges and loofahs alike.So, my question is: if you could choose any combination of bath/shower tools, then what combinations would you choose?

I use 2 bath tools : a mesh sponge from BBW, and a back brush from BBW. It's all you need, and the quality is great, especially for the price. Just squirt some shower gel on each one and lather up.

I always have to have a loofa. and they last pretty long for me. I usually toss them only cause I dont want it to be filled with bacteria.

Also I have a pumice brush for scrubbin my feet!

and a back reacher brush.

I never thought to wear gloves when using my body exfoliator scrub...

I just figure my hands can use the exfoliation too.

Veronicalin, I have the Ecotools foot smoothing stone, and it is great. The best foot file I have and then I have a basket full. Though I use it on dry feet, since it just clogs up so much if used on wet skin.Punkydew, since I like using rather harsh salt exfoliators on my legs I found they actually hurt my hands. Especially since each leg got much less exfoliating than my poor hands, so gloves was a must.So, loofah for body exfoliation, pumice stone for feet, back reacher brush and a classical sponge for laterhing up properly?

That should do it! What else could you need?

True. There's just so many fun bath things to choose from. Like, should one get a bath towel instead of a loofah and sponge? ;)

I don't use anything especially fancy. I have a loofah from BBW and I have a punice stone thingie with a cord on it so I can hang it up. I think I bought it from Target. That's all I need.

A bath puff for lathering and gentle exfoliation.  A ramie shower mitt (http://www.parispresents.com/product_p/et22715.htm)for facial exfoliation, a pumice stone for my feet and I still have a back brush (http://www.parispresents.com/product_p/et7400.htm) hanging but I rarely use it.  Oh! a cheap-o 99cent nail brush,too.
