Bob’s Exfoliating Scrub: A Revolution in Men’s Grooming
Men’s shower routines have been stuck in a perpetual state of mediocrity for around 50 years now.
While the women’s side of the bathroom is like a tropical utopia with scrubs and potions of every ilk, blokes rely on a 45p bottle of shower gel to cover all bases.
The working theory was that men simply didn’t care about grooming. And while that certainly holds a level of truth, it’s a narrative that’s slowly changing.
One factor that’s shifting the needle is the introduction of Bob’s exfoliating scrub. Far from another damp mitten or grainy paste, Bob is an all-encompassing body wash solution that’s dragging men out of the dark ages.
The kit combines a handheld applicator with exfoliating bristles, a shower mount, travel cap, and the world’s first hard refillable body wash bars for a rinse like no other.

Let’s raise the shower curtain on what makes Bob the exfoliating scrub men can’t stop raving about.
Welcome to Bob
Bob is the quintessentially British brainchild of Will Richards, Max Agace and Michael Brennan.
After years of enduring the many pain points of sub-par showers — harmful ingredients, lost gel through fingers, dropping the soap — the trio set out to create something better.
Their mission was twofold: upgrade the men’s shower game while eliminating the churn of plastic waste.
In Bob, they created a tool for life, not just another bottle or bar of soap. The ingenious solution takes a holistic approach to upgrading the entire experience.
The soap, aptly named Bob Bars, is formulated with skin-loving ingredients like beeswax, shea butter, and coconut oil, and pH-balanced to match men’s skin.
Two scents are currently available:
- The Gentleman — a neutral yet deodorising offering that’s subtle yet slick
- The Morning Man — a bold mix of peppermint and lime for a proper wake-up call
Those gentler bars slot neatly inside Bob’s refillable applicator, which is tested to last a minimum of 3,721 washes. In other words, two washes a day for 5 years.
A suction-cupped shower mount keeps the entire kit suspended upside down between uses, draining away excess liquid and preventing the shallow soapy graves caused by outdated dishes.
As the final piece of the puzzle, a leak-proof travel cap makes Bob the perfect grooming accessory for travel — be it cross-country for work or further afield for a break in the sun.
An Exfoliating Scrub Like No Other
Bob’s design has more than a few tricks up its sleeve. The applicator is equipped with built-in exfoliating bristles that surround the soap.
The medical-grade fixture is tough enough to wick away sweat and dead skin while remaining gentle on sensitive areas.
As an exfoliating scrub, it’s far more sophisticated than the various tools and mittens you might have spotted your partner deploying mid-shower.
It’s also significantly less jarring than the gritty pastes that feel like coating sand on your body. Exfoliating is an alien concept to most men, but Bob makes it an everyday staple you barely think twice about.
Cleaning Up Bathrooms (And the Planet)
Bob’s goal of reducing plastic waste serves a dual purpose. From a personal standpoint, it declutters your bathroom of plastic bottles by delivering an all-in-one solution that works for your body, face, hair, and bits and bobs.
The true impact, however, runs much deeper. Armed with a world-first refillable system and cardboard packaging, Bob’s exfoliating scrub slashes the number of single-use plastic bottles heading for landfill.
The result is a cleaner bathroom and a cleaner planet. You could call it killing two birds with one soap.
Final Thoughts
If your skincare routine is woefully neglected, and your showers punctuated by plastic bottles, it’s time to give Bob’s exfoliating scrub a whirl.
The starting shower pack, which includes two Bob Bars and all the bells and whistles, costs just £21. Once you’ve got the kit, two-bar refills of either scent are priced at £7 (£3.50 per bar) with a soapscription.
