The at least one opening may be located along the perimeter of the sponge. The at least one opening is capable of providing protection to a user's fingernail, knuckles, and other parts of the finger, during use. The sponge body may be formed into any shape or size. Additionally, the openings may be dimensioned such that they are capable of receiving and protecting the fingers and thumbs of a user. The sponge body can be formed from any acceptable material, such as poly vinyl alcohol (PVA).
