BBTO 5 Pieces Soap Saver Bag Natural Sisal Exfoliating Soap Pouch for Foaming and Drying, Shower, Scrubber(9 x 14 cm,Beige)

I rarely bother to write reviews, but am so impressed with this product I felt I had to write this one. I purchased mine nearly 18 months ago and am still using the first bag. Only now is it starting to show enough wear that I'm thinking of starting with a new one. Having used it so long, I'd like to address some of the negative points I read when deciding whether or not to make this purchase.1) Scratchy material - If you don't get the bag thoroughly wet before use, it is a bit harsh on the skin. Once wet, however, I don't find it any more rough than other loufahs. I am a middle-aged office worker who is rarely outside, so I don't think I have particularly tough skin either.2) Soap getting goopy/being used up fast - I always rinse the bag thoroughly then hang it to dry after each use. Doing this, I've found the soap re-solidifies between uses and lasts as long as or longer than when I used other types of holders. It may depend on your soap type though; I use all natural goats milk soap.3) Bag shrinking/sticking to soap affecting lather - I've found this is true; however, thoroughly wetting the bag and gently pulling it off the soap is an easy fix taking just a few seconds.Overall I think this is a great product and well worth the small price. It does exactly what I hoped it would, which is allow me to use the entire bar of soap rather than losing part due to goopiness and/or being to small to hold onto. When the bar gets to small to hold, I just add another one to the bag and keep going.I just hope they are still selling these when I need to order more, which based on this 1st bag should be in about 5 years.

yep these are good way to use small chunks of soap. using about a year now, durable and great

Great way to use those small pieces of soap. I like the scratchy feeling. The only negative is the size. Wish they were a bit bigger.

I like these for my bar soap. Good quality and good for scrubbing

Didn’t keep my soap dry as expected. I buy homemade soap from a small company and it was mushy next day. but I put soap on it and the exfoliating is nice.

Update from 3 to 5 stars: I'm really glad that I continued using these pouches after feeling disappointed when the first pouch wore out way too quickly. Turns out, I just needed to adjust my technique. The second pouch I used with a more delicate touch. I fold the top of the pouch over, to keep the soap bits from slipping out, and wash myself with a lighter touch. I still get a nice gentle exfoliating clean that doesn't upset my sensitive skin, and I no longer have to tie a slip knot to keep the drawstring closed. I hang it to dry on a hook that isn't under or near the shower head & it dries nicely between usage. I still hope they can find a way to package the pouches without using plastic, but overall, I am very happy, I feel much better about using these than the synthetic shower poufs!Pros: Lathers up nicely and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin (I wet it when I get in shower, then use it after I wash my hair). Love the biodegradable material of the pouch. Fits a whole dove soap bar, &/or whatever leftover bits I want to use up.Cons: I have to tie the drawstring into a slipknot to keep the soap from slipping out of the pouch while using it. Lathers up so well, it uses up the soap way faster than I expected. More of an issue is the pouch wearing out, getting holes, after just 4 uses.Not sure if they can solve the plastic packaging without their product mildewing before reaching the consumer, but would like to see that too.So, I'll use up what I have and try another option next time. If this company fixes at least some of these issues, I would be willing to try again.

It also works as a scrub. I like it.
