“My skin has never felt softer. It dries quickly and does a great job getting my back clean. This has improved my back acne a ton.”
Say hello to an easier, deeper clean
The spots on your back you can never quite reach
Loofas that fall apart and go musty
Scrubbing too hard on sensitive skin

Reaches everywhere, no irritation, easy to keep clean
Reaches where nothing else does
The full 47-inch length lets you wash
shoulder to lower back on your own —
no brush to grip, no bristles.
Gentle on tender skin and stiff shoulders
Soft enough that sensitive, mature skin
and aching shoulders never hurt —
firm enough to actually clean. You set
the pressure.
Clean and dry by lunchtime — never musty
Toss it in the wash, hang it up, and it
dries quickly — the silver thread
means it won’t go mildewy or smelly
like a loofah or poof.

“It got rid of my back acne, and the KP on my arms is almost completely gone! I don't miss using a loofah one bit.”
“I bought one for my partner and I. His back is so much smoother, and it helped with back acne. I am so happy with how clean my back feels now.”
“I LOVE these towels!! They got rid of the strawberry skin on the back of my thighs and my skin is touchable soft.”
“I have KP and my skin feels much smoother since using the Sima towel. I also love how it's long enough I can get my back.”
“I love it and I got my husband one as well. The little bumps (Keratosis Pilaris) I had at the top of my arm are slowly disappearing.”
“My skin is so soft to touch including my once scaly elbows. Washing my back is so easy. Bought more as gifts for my brother and his wife.”
“Areas of dry skin disappearing. Flakiness disappearing. Don't have to use heavy lotion.”
“I have not had dry skin flakes on my legs since I started using this towel.”
“Just enough exfoliating for my sensitive skin on my face. Not too harsh but feels so much cleaner after my shower using this with my face wash.”
“My face is so much smoother, the blackheads on the side of my face are smoother and some gone.”
“I love this product!! It gently cleans and softens leaving my face very smooth.”
“First time in years that I have been able to wash my back and know for sure it's clean. It takes a couple of times to figure it out but it is worth the time.”
“As I get older, I find it more difficult to manipulate my arms and shoulders while bathing. This enables me to wash my back without a painful reach.”
“Holds the lather nice through the whole shower and I can wash my back!!! Wowwwww! Only took 60 years lol.”
Sima is safe, dermatologist-recommended, and transforms skin health over time.
“For anyone with limited shoulder
mobility, a longer exfoliating towel
restores something simple but
important — the ability to clean your
own back thoroughly and
independently.”

Skin feels healthier
"I received the Sima shower towel as a gift and I absolutely love it. Your skin feels so soft and clean after just one use. I have dry skin and this Sima shower towel has made my skin feel so much healthier and hydrated so I'm not using as much lotion now. I definitely recommend this product."
Were I not suffering with
"Were I not suffering with advanced prostate cancer which has created serious mobility issues and I could get a young lady to help me showering, the Sima exfoliating towel would be perfect. As it is, it is as good as it could get and I do feel so refreshed and clean after showering and my skin has improved beyond belief. I really should have given it five stars."
It exfoliates so well! It
"It exfoliates so well! It has two different levels of exfoliation. One side for sensitive skin and one side for a deeper exfoliation! I LOVE IT! It speeds up my time in the shower, leaving me more time in the morning for a relaxed commute. Being able to clean my entire back without missing a spot is the best feeling! No more bumpy skin in areas I can't reach with my arms alone. I bought one for each for my family!"
I thought these might be
"I thought these might be a nice gift for my young adult grandchildren, so I bought one first for myself to try it out. I absolutely LOVE it! I can’t imagine showering without it. It’s so nice for the back and legs. So I ordered one for 7 of my grandchildren last year at Christmas. They all love it and use it all the time. I’m on the second go round for gifts this year. Just one word of caution - you may find yourself spending more time in the shower. I don’t want to get out but when I do, I feel like I just stepped out of a spa!"
Works just as promised and
"Works just as promised and my skin feels amazing after use. I got two exfoliating body towels and one face towel it dries quick enough to use twice a day but I think I’ll buy more so I can have one while the other is being laundered. So cute and such a bargain for a really valuable addition to skin care and health routine."
I was excited to receive
"I was excited to receive my SIMA product. Years of loofahs that go soggy, and back brushes that wear out I wanted something that did a better job. Exfoliating is a great benefit for the human body and makes you feel better. It has Japanese origins, and I remember a similar product in an Onsen in west Japan many years ago. All things Japanese I love. The shower towel is excellent, and my only problem is my shower stall restricts full movement to be able to fully use it. But absolutely no complaints."
I am extremely happy with
"I am extremely happy with my purchase of the Sima Exfoliating shower towels. I haven't felt this clean in quite a while. With arthritis and a bad hip my movement has been limited - this risk helps with that so much especially the bottoms of my feet and my back. I would highly recommend."
I order way too much
"I order way too much stuff online and a lot of it doesn't work out but Sima cloths are the exception. I can honestly say I absolutely love mine. They're life changing. No exaggeration. I bought one for my husband, sister, friend, and got a bunch to give as Christmas gifts."
I love my Sima wash
"I love my Sima wash towels. They are the best skin exfoliator I have ever used. My skin felt so good after using one for the first time. The length is perfect and makes it so easy to use. I even like it on my feet."
Best thing I’ve ever ordered
"The fact that the towel is so long helps more than you can imagine…. It cleans easily and fast…no musty smell. I bought one to try it and a week ago I bought 3 more…cleaner than I’ve felt the n a little g time…and no more “snake skin” on my legs"
