Ahead, find the tools dermatologists and Allure editors recommend for soft, silky skin that feels fresh-from-the-shower clean.

Why we love it: This Best of Beauty Award winner made Allure contributor Kathleen Suico vow never to look at a loofah again. After testing the long mesh washcloth in the shower for several weeks -- which is designed to help products build a satisfying foam -- Suico found that the loofah alternative left her skin with an ultra-silky feel. Plus, thanks to the scrub's lathering effect on products, it gave her everyday shower gel a luxurious feel. Inspired by Ghanaian bathing rituals, the scrub didn't irritate her eczema patches, and it helped her cleanse hard-to-reach areas of hormonal bacne. "In combination with a medicated body wash, the extra-long length has helped get control of my breakouts," Suico wrote.

Tester feedback: "I find you get the best lather by wetting and applying cleanser directly onto the cloth," Suico said. "Before I use it on my body, I work it into the mesh to get a nice sud going."

Material: mesh | Care instructions: rinse with warm water and air-dry after use

Why we love it: Hanni The Shower Scarf makes showering quick and easy, whether you want to moisturize before you've even hopped out of the shower or exfoliate your whole body in minutes flat. Inspired by Japanese bathing rituals, this editor-loved shower scarf is a long washcloth made of recycled nylon. For a quick, glow-boosting scrub, pour some of your go-to body wash onto the scarf, work it into a lather, and wash by wrapping the scarf around your limbs and moving it back and forth. For a deeper exfoliation, use a little more elbow grease as you scrub. The washcloth is easy to clean. Just rinse it out thoroughly, and let it air-dry after each use.

Tester feedback: This mesh washcloth "gives my skin an intensive scrub-down and removes flaky patches of skin," says Allure commerce writer Jennifer Hussein, who adds that its extra-long design makes it easy for her to scrub hard-to-reach spots.
