Kumazasa Washi Paper & Cotton Exfoliating Towel for the Body
£11.00

A long exfoliating towel woven in Japan with a pile of a unique fabric composed entirely of paper — Sasawashi — and a base fabric of cotton. Sasawashi yarns are made from twisted strips of paper, the composition of which is part Washi, and part Kumazasa. The wider the strip the thicker the yarn, and once they have been spun they can be woven or knitted into products with all the benefits of this new fabric — including high water and oil absorbency, natural antibacterial and deodorant power from the added Kumazasa, and a washing durability on par with Cotton. Soak in hot water without soap and lightly wring out before rubbing on the skin, removing excess oil from the skin leaving you feeling refreshed and clean. Machine washable, though a net is recommended. Measures 20cm by 93cm.
