Sasawashi Open Weave Exfoliating Towel
Create a luxuriously rich lather while exfoliating all of your roughest and driest spots with this loosely woven exfoliator from Sasawashi. The open weave of this exfoliating towel allows soap to spread evenly across your body while the oil-absorbing properties of washi paper help to remove excess oil from your skin. It can also be used without soap for a lovely dry exfoliation.
Sasawashi
Sasawashi was founded as a reaction to the wastefulness and ephemeral lifespan of the textile industry. Made from absorbent washi paper threads infused with antibacterial kumazasa plant fibers, this innovative fabric offers natural deodorizing properties that prevent mildew growth and fiber deterioration. From Japanese-style room shoes to personal scrub towels, every piece in the Sasawashi collection stays true to the brand's fundamental values: comfort, longevity, and simplicity.

Is This Exfoliating Towel Suitable for All Skin Types
All of our beneficial Japanese exfoliating towels are suitable for any skin type. Even delicate and sensitive skin types benefit from soothing cotton, absorbent washi paper, and antibacterial Kumazasa bamboo fibers.
For sensitive skin types, use a gentler pressure while cleansing and exfoliating. Unlike other abrasive washing products, our exfoliating towel provides the perfect balance of softness and texture for a deeper cleanse without risking damage to fragile dermal layers.
For oily, dry, and acne-prone skin types, a slightly firmer pressure is best for clearing deeper impurities and stubborn dead skin. Use our Japanese exfoliating towel during a hot shower to open the pores and enhance the efficacy of the scrub. You can use the exfoliating towel on your entire body with a favorite cleanser or exfoliant to revitalize skin tone, soften texture, prevent acne, and remove years of toxic accumulation.
The Benefits of the Sasawashi Open Weave Exfoliating Towel
These multipurpose Japanese towels can be used to clear pores, fight bacteria, naturally deodorize the body, dry surfaces quickly, and add value to every element of your skincare routine. Use for daily cleansing and detoxification, or treat yourself to a spa-like facial massage and rejuvenate your skin on a deeper level.
All Sasawashi exfoliating towels are made with superior production practices. This meticulous craftsmanship is upheld by natural materials that can last for decades when properly cared for. From the intricately functional weave patterns to the quality of the sustainable materials selected, the impressive absorbency and style of these beautiful towels are only paralleled by the longevity they provide.
The inherent properties of the materials are reason enough to make the switch to a Sasawashi towel:
Washi paper is renowned for its smooth texture, longevity, and outstanding absorbency, offering approximately twice the absorbency of your standard towel materials!
Kumazasa bamboo is naturally antibacterial, deodorizing, and sustainable. These properties promote cleaner skincare practices, inhibit mildew growth, and prevent musty odors.
Pure cotton brings a softer balance to the texture, while simultaneously enhancing the breathability and absorbency for an experience that every skin type can appreciate.
