Spa wristbands, AKA face washing wristbands or towel wristbands, solve the annoying problem of water running down your arms while washing or rinsing your face (and dripping onto your bathroom sink or counter). I only recently learned that these handy spa wristbands existed while watching a popular online skincare store owner using them during a “get ready with me” video of her current AM and PM skincare routines. Even though she didn’t talk about them (and doesn’t sell them), the minute I saw them, it was like a lightbulb moment for me!
Here's my product review of the soft, absorbent microfiber face washing wristbands I bought and love.

| I chose the "Lovely Colors" color assortment (white, light blue, lavender and pale pink), but there are many others to choose from. |
While it's true that having water running down your forearms while washing your face or rinsing off a facial masque or other skincare treatment certainly isn't the end of the world, it can be quite annoying. That's especially true if you wear a long-sleeved bathrobe or nightgown while cleansing your face.
I used to try standing farther away from my sink and bending over it at a steeper angle to try to avoid the drips, but the water simply ran down my forearms more slowly and dripped off my elbows onto the bathroom floor instead of into the sink. Not exactly an improvement!
Since discovering these towel wristbands, both my arms and my sleeves stay comfortably dry while I'm washing my face.

What I Love About These Microfiber Face Washing Spa Wristbands
These deliciously soft microfiber spa wristbands come in sets of 4 pairs and are:
Extremely Absorbent
Microfiber is deservedly popular as a towel material because of its high absorbency. The more plush the material, the more surface area there is to absorb water.
At 3.15"/8 cm wide by 2.4"/6 cm tall, there's enough of the plush microfiber toweling to absorb dripping water before it can get past your wrists.
Delightfully Soft and Silky Microfiber Fleece
Snuggly soft microfiber fleece material feels great against your skin.
Very Stretchy
These wristbands have excellent elasticity and stretch easily to fit most wrists. They go on and off easily and stay put while wearing, providing a snug yet extremely comfortable dam to prevent water from dripping down your forearms.
Nice Selection of Solid Colors and Appliqué Designs
You'll find a choice of many pretty color assortments to suit any taste.
Easy Care
Although I usually hand wash my microfiber spa wristbands, wring them out and allow them to air dry, I have also washed mine in the washing machine on a gentle cycle. I haven't found that they need washing very often.
Surprisingly Affordable
At the time of this review's update on May 11, 2026, the price for four pairs of spa wristbands ranged from $6.49 to $7.59, depending on the color selection.
That made them between $1.62 and $1.90 per pair, with free Prime shipping for Amazon Prime members!

| I have extras of these plush microfiber spa wristbands and my stretch terrycloth spa headbands so I never run out while they are being laundered. I also keep a set in my suitcase for travel. |
They Can Do Double Duty as Sweat Wristbands for Sports (or Hot Weather)
The plush, absorbent microfiber material can wick away sweat as well as water effectively, and they feel much nicer against the skin than typical terrycloth sweatbands.
