A new health warning has been issued by J. Matthew Knight of the Knight Dermatology Institute – and it involves your own bath shower puffs.

Turns out that your dead skin cells tend to get stuck under all that puffy layers, encouraging bacterial growth!

And it can happen in a short period of time – couple of hours, in fact!

This could mean that open wounds are even more prone to infections – a cut as small as a razor cut is also harmful to your skin’s epidermal layer!

Knight advises that bath puff users should replace their puffs frequently, and leave them to dry somewhere else other than their bathrooms – a dryer environment is preferable.

In addition to cleaning your bath puffs, an alternative is bath loofahs, which do not have wire layers that will trap bacteria and dead skin as easily as a bath puff.
