Diatomite, otherwise known as diatomaceous earth, is a natural material that absorbs humidity and used in a variety of products such as coasters and trays.
Diatomite bath mats are particularly popular for their water absorbency and quick-drying properties which are particularly appreciated when you have wet feet.
As convenient as they are, however, diatomite bath mats can sometimes be heavy and difficult to carry, difficult to clean, and feel cool in winter.
But did you know that there is a diatomite bath mat that solves these complaints?
Soft Diatomite Bath Mat
This Soft Diatomite Bath Mat has a fluffy, high-quality feel.
Moreover, it's great in the colder months since it doesn't have the coolness characteristic of diatomaceous earth.
The inner material contains powdered diatomite and sodium carbonate to inhibit the growth of bacteria. It's also hygienic because it prevents the growth of mold.
In addition, the cover is made of a Japanese fabric containing 90% polyester and 10% cotton which is used for high-grade polo shirts and is designed for its quick-drying performance and soft texture, so it is very light and comfortable to use.

We actually tried using the Soft Diatomite Bath Mat!
Feeling is believing, so we gave a Soft Diatomite Bath Math to one of the writers at our sister site Grape to try out for herself.
She always felt uncomfortable using a soaked bath mat after her husband had used it. She had been using a diatomite bath mat that she bought from a home furnishings retailer, so she was curious to find out how different the Soft Diatomite Bath Mat would be.
Still a bit skeptical, she put the cover over the Soft Diatomite Bath Mat...

No matter how you look at it, it's a cushion!
Not only did it look like a cushion, but it also felt like one of those cushions you would find on your bed in a nice hotel.
"Is it really a diatomite bath mat?" she wondered as she gingerly placed her wet feet on it after her bath.

Ohhhh...!
The moment she stepped out of the bath, a soft and fluffy feeling enveloped her feet.
There was none of the discomfort from wetness that she normally felt! Instead, the mat was so light and comfy that wiping her feet on it was a pleasure.

She put her nose to the bath mat after using it, and there was none of the musty smell she had noticed from other diatomite bath mats.
Conventional diatomite bath mats can easily get moldy, creating stains that are difficult to clean. However, with the Soft Diatomite Bath Mat, all you have to do is wash the cover after use!

Not only is it hygienic, but it's also thin enough not to take up too much space in your washing machine.
The inner part should be dried in the shade about twice a week. There's no need to hang it outside, just put it in a well-ventilated area.

It was just so comfortable, her whole family was pleased! She definitely wanted to keep it and use it in her home from now on.
