COWAN Bath Products is the developer and manufacturer of the unique patent pending Cowan Stretch Exfoliating washcloth which is designed to cleanse, exfoliate and rejuvenate the entire body including those hard-to-reach places on your back. Based on the design of this washcloth, it is great for use on delicate areas of the body like your face but can easily be used to wash and exfoliate other areas of the body including the back, without having to change the washcloth or having to use another item like a back scrubber brush or a exfoliating cloth designed for use on the back only.
