BTM takes a look at the latest easy-to-use, planet-friendly products.
A SUSTAINABLE SCRUB
Say bye-bye to synthetic bath scrubbers with plastic elements. The exclusive blend of natural fibres in the Evolatree Bath and Shower Loofah Sponge has a breathable mesh design which creates a rich soapy lather and fast dry time. The strong, sustainable fibres soften with each washing without degradation and have just the right amount of texture to give an effective exfoliating scrub. Throw the loofah in the washer and air dry to use it over and over again.
