Eco Bath London Natural Loofah Bath Mitt

Two Sides. One Mitt. The Only Exfoliator Your Shower Needs.

Eco Bath London's Natural Loofah Bath Mitt is a dual-sided exfoliating glove that does the work of two products in one. The front face is made from natural loofah — a plant-derived fibre with a firm, textured surface that sweeps away dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and stimulates circulation with every stroke. The reverse is soft cotton, designed for gentler cleansing on more sensitive areas or for days when your skin needs a lighter touch. Together they make this one of the most versatile and practical bath accessories available.

The mitt is ergonomically shaped to fit the hand naturally, giving you full control and manoeuvrability across every contour of the body. A hanging loop on the wrist allows it to air-dry quickly between uses — an important feature for any natural fibre product, as proper drying extends the life of the loofah significantly. The flexible, body-conforming design works equally well for men and women and is sized to suit most hands.

Made from biodegradable materials and packaged sustainably by Eco Bath London, this mitt is a genuinely eco-conscious choice for anyone looking to reduce plastic in their bathroom routine. Natural loofah is a renewable, compostable plant fibre — when it eventually reaches the end of its life, it can go straight into the compost rather than landfill.

How to Use

Wet the mitt thoroughly before use to soften the loofah fibres. Apply your preferred body wash or soap directly to the loofah side and work into a lather before massaging over the skin in circular motions, paying particular attention to rough areas such as elbows, knees, and heels. Use the cotton side for more sensitive areas or for a gentler daily cleanse. Rinse thoroughly after use and hang to dry using the wrist loop. Replace every four to six weeks for best hygiene results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is natural loofah made from?
Natural loofah (also spelled luffa) is derived from the fibrous interior of the Luffa aegyptiaca plant — a member of the cucumber family. When the fruit is dried and processed, the interior reveals a network of tough, flexible fibres that make an excellent natural exfoliator. It is 100% plant-derived, biodegradable, and compostable at the end of its life.

How often should I replace my loofah mitt?
We recommend replacing your loofah mitt every four to six weeks with regular use. Natural loofah can harbour bacteria if not dried properly between uses, so always hang it to dry after each shower and replace it regularly to maintain good hygiene.

Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
The loofah side provides a firm exfoliation that may be too intense for very sensitive or reactive skin. The soft cotton reverse is suitable for more sensitive areas and can be used for a gentler daily cleanse. If you have a diagnosed skin condition such as eczema or psoriasis, consult your GP before using any exfoliating product.

Can I use this with any body wash or soap?
Yes. The mitt works with any liquid body wash, bar soap, or shower gel. Apply the product directly to the loofah side and work into a lather before applying to the skin. The loofah fibres will help create a rich lather while simultaneously exfoliating.

How do I care for my loofah mitt?
Rinse thoroughly after every use to remove soap residue and dead skin cells. Hang to dry using the wrist loop — never leave it sitting in a pool of water. You can also machine wash it on a gentle cycle at 30°C to refresh it between replacements. Avoid tumble drying as high heat can damage the natural fibres.

Is this a good eco-friendly alternative to plastic exfoliating gloves?
Yes. Natural loofah is one of the most sustainable exfoliating materials available — it is plant-grown, renewable, biodegradable, and compostable. Unlike plastic mesh exfoliating gloves, which shed microplastics into the water supply and end up in landfill, a natural loofah mitt can be composted at the end of its life with zero environmental impact.
