A loofah is a natural sponge made from the dried fruit of the loofah plant, which belongs to the cucumber family. When harvested and processed, the fibrous interior of the fruit becomes a great tool for exfoliating the skin. Many people use loofahs in the shower to help remove dead skin cells and improve circulation, making their skin feel smoother and healthier. In addition to personal care, loofahs can also be used in gardening as a natural plant support or even as a biodegradable cleaning tool. They are eco-friendly and can be composted after use, making them a popular choice for those looking to reduce their environmental impact.
