Calypso Relaxing Moment Body Sponge

Very nice sponge, it is a good size and easy to hold and also very soft. Highly recommended!

I generally use a store brand sponge to give me a good scrub. I'm a long-distance runner, and a sweaty one at that, any whilst most sponges do a fine job, this is one feels a little better. Firstly, it retains its shape. It's not hard or rough against your skin and it soaks body wash in well and holds onto it for a single complete wash. It dries quickly enough and there's no degradation in quality or performance. Which, as I type, sounds ridiculous that I'm saying this about a sponge! Overall, it's a great sponge that has stopped me moaning about the store bought version that pales in comparison. ** Pros ** - Lasts better than store bought versions (the rough plastic ones) - Retains its shape - Holds enough body wash and water for a complete body scrub - Doesn't smell (store bought one smells of plastic) - Isn't rough against skin - Appears to be environmentally friendly - Dries quickly ** Cons ** - Expensive for a sponge - Only available in pink

Nice sponge, good size and soft. :)

I found this sponge just right for everyday showering - a sensible size to keep hold of, and while it's not the softest I've used I think it's a good texture for scrubbing yourself awake, without making any sensitive areas sore. The open texture gives an excellent amount of lather, and dries out quickly after use which helps stop it from going smelly. Mine has lasted 6 months now and is still going strong, which works out better value than some of the ones I've got on the high street. I'm pretty sure this will genuinely be biodegradable, as I've been blasting it in the microwave from time to time to disinfect it and after 2 minutes on full it shows no signs of melting or sticking to itself. I'm happy to have found a more planet-friendly option for a reasonable price!

Not squidgy, a bit solid. Does a good job though

These sponges are awesome, not too pricey either. Can last over a month with proper rinsing and drying after use (i.e. rinse till water is clear, then leave near window or radiator). And super soft (but in a 'I feel really clean now' sort of way) You won't be disappointed with this sponge, although the colours are variable (so far light yellows and pinks seem to be the variants sent out, I have heard there are green ones too, but not seen one of those yet) Small update (09/04/20) - I shifted to a different product (konjac sponges) for a bit, but came back to this product. They last longer, have a better more robust feel and are still value for money, I still recommend this product.

bought for someone ideal size they liked it

So this sponge is good. It's a good size, larger than other natural sponges I've tried. After about 3 months of daily use it's still perfectly usable but is showing wear and tear. Despite rinsing the soap out, I find it discolours (I'm on my 4th and they've all done it). I'm yet to come across a sponge made of natural material that lasts a long time and, if you think about it, that makes perfect sense: you're repeatedly soaking it, drying it, using it abrasively (lightly) and, all the while, you want something soft. That design brief surely means it's never going to last a long time? If you know otherwise, let me know! So it won't last as long as plastic, but that's actually a good thing.
