A bath ritual with West African roots.
LUV SCRUB brings a mesh body-exfoliating tool used in West African bathing traditions into a contemporary personal-care brand. Its focused product approach gives a familiar routine a cultural story. The business invites readers to consider how everyday objects and practices can travel between generations and find a wider audience.
About the founder
Caroline Owusu-Ansah introduced LUV SCRUB in 2011. Her own long-standing use of the mesh tool helped inspire the decision to share it through a brand.
