Natural ElephantExfoliating Hammam Glove - Face and Body Exfoliator Mitt (Lovely Lilac)

I can’t believe I haven’t heard of a kessa/hammam mitt sooner!! My skin is so soft!!! I don’t know why loofahs are the general standard for shower exfoliation. Compared to this, loofahs don’t do anything!I bought this because for a few weeks now, my skin had been itching randomly for no apparent reason, and no sign of any bumps or hives or bug bites. I hadn’t switched products or anything. I thought maybe it was stress or the hot weather or too much dust being blown around by the fan. In any case, I had a hunch that exfoliating would help. It seems I was right.I had some small, nonitchy bumps on the back of my left arm which could have been the beginning of keratosis pilaris. My right arm had no bumps. And after using this, neither of them have any.I also am susceptible to ingrown hairs where I shave. On my legs, the ingrowns are very weird- they’re not exactly ingrown. The hairs grow in under a thin layer of the skin but they can’t be shaved because there’s skin over top of them. It’s like trying to shave over top pantyhose. It doesn’t work because the hairs are flat to the skin. This glove significantly reduced that. My underarms are also unbelievably soft. The ingrowns are also why I would use this before shaving.I will no longer be wasting money on European Wax Center’s ingrown hair serum, it never really worked anyway, especially for my bikini line. I thought I had to give up waxing because the ingrowns were just so awful. The waxer always said to exfoliate and of course recommended their product. I was like “I know I have to exfoliate!” but their serum and my washcloths and dry body brush just didn’t cut it.I used to use a dry body brush for exfoliating because it’s supposed to be so good for the skin and have all these benefits but compared to this mitt, the exfoliating is zero. I threw out my dry body brush, I won’t be using it ever again. I also tried a Dylonic Brush which I got from Amazon and that plastic thing was too hard on my skin, did not solve my ingrown hairs and did not exfoliate. If I could return it for my money back, I would.I used it for the first time last night and you can see from my photos all the dead skin that came off. The grey flecks in the mitt is dead skin. The stuff on the bottom of my tub: dead skin. That gross piece of what looks like mouse droppings (sorry for the description) on the side of my tub: dead skin. So gross but so satisfying. I actually ran out of my bathroom to grab my phone and take the photos.There is a trick to using it however and to getting that much dead skin off.First you have to stand in a hot shower (or bath if you prefer, I did shower) for several minutes. And get the mitt wet too. The packaging says to use soap, I did not use any soap whatsoever on the mitt. I only use soap/cleanser on my face, underarms, down there, and any areas that got sweaty that day like under the breasts as I think soap over your whole body is wasteful and unnecessary. (And I used my cleanser after all of this exfoliating.) The purpose of soap/cleanser/body wash is to dissolve oils on your skin and impart a fresh fragrance. I don’t want to dissolve my skin’s natural oils on my whole body and soap/body wash does NOT exfoliate. So why waste product?After soaking the skin, you have to turn off the water (or get out of the bath.) I wasn’t getting any dead skin coming off when I was trying to use the mitt with the shower on. Turn off the shower and then start scrubbing. As a bonus you’ll save water.Once you turn off the water, start scrubbing and watch the dead skin start pilling up everywhere. It takes a while to scrub the whole body so re-wet the mitt if you need to but it’s better to keep the skin out of the water and I didn’t need to re-wet the mitt for the most part.Some places to really get at are the tops of the feet & ankles, behind the ears (but be gentle here), and yes your face & lips. I started with my face. I did not find it too abrasive but you will want to use a lighter touch on the face and ears or use it under running water for these sensitive areas. For every where else on the body, I was scrubbing hard and my arm got sore so I paused for a minute and then continued. It felt very invigorating and my skin got pretty red so I would say the claims about improved circulation are probably true.It’s a bit hard to reach all of your back effectively but I think I managed alright. Maybe next time, I’ll jump out of the shower and ask my mom or sister to help me.After, rinse away all the dead skin and finish up the shower. Closing with cool water is great and refreshing.I freaking love this thing. LOVE. I want to buy the 5 pack for my whole family, extras for myself and give them as gifts to everyone. In my opinion, everyone should have one of these. I don’t know why it’s not more common, nothing else works better. Not loofahs, not dry body brushing which is a pretty big skin care trend recently, not a wash cloth, not a scrub product, NOTHING. Nothing works like this.I’m gonna try throwing it in the delicates bag and putting it in the washing machine and seeing how it goes. I’m also not sure how often to use this. I guess how often to use it is an individual thing anyways so I’ll have to experiment with the frequency of use.UPDATE: I put this in the washing machine and it’s fine. The color will bleed if washed in hot water though. Not an issue for me but just something to be aware of.

With this, i dont see myself ever going back to a artificial loofah

I’ve used these for years and keep repurchasing. They’re great exfoliators and I always feel cleaner after using them in the shower. They’re durable, dry quickly, and last a decent amount of time before they need to be replaced. I will continue to buy these!

Nothing really wrong with it. It’s ok for the value. Wish it had a loop for hanging it up to dry. I was able to use the tag but it’s not quite enough for hanging.

This is so great I bought one for my son. Gentle enough to use on my whole body but also removes a ton of dead skin.

I liked that you can go gentle with it and have a light scrubbing or do it while your skin is semi dry and get ALL dead skin off (literally comes out in bits so satisfying).Definitely noticed a difference taking my deodorant off too. Loved!

It doesn’t slough skin and make your skin pull like everyone says it does. Elastic is too tight and hard to get hand in. Just feels like a light sandpaper of a mitt. Nothing special. Sticking with my exfoliation gloves from Target

It's not as rough as I thought it would be but I still like it. It's definitely more rough once it's wet.

parfait ca enleve vraiment les peaux mortes

I don’t normally write reviews but i had to for this one!I used it for the first time and it really works! I could see a lot of dead skin comming off and left me all soft and silky! Really easy to use and very good quality for the price! Recommand!

It does it’s job exactly as described. Good choice to exfoliate.

Great purchase
