They are used in the shower or bath with body wash to reveal softer, smoother, and more radiant skin, help prevent ingrown hairs, and promote circulation. Proper use involves soaking the skin and the glove, applying body wash, and using gentle, controlled pressure to avoid irritation, with weekly use recommended for best results. 

What They Are & How They Work

• Mechanical Exfoliation:
• Exfoliating gloves work by physically scrubbing away dead skin cells from the skin's surface. 
• Material:
• They are typically made from textured fabrics like viscose fiber or nylon, which are effective at sloughing off impurities. 
• Purpose:
• The main goal is to remove dead skin, which can improve skin texture, prevent clogged pores, and reduce ingrown hairs. 

Benefits of Using Exfoliating Gloves

• Smoother Skin: Removes dull, flaky skin to reveal a softer, more radiant complexion. 
• Clearer Pores: Helps to unclog pores and prevent buildup. 
• Improved Circulation: Massaging the skin can promote healthy blood circulation. 
• Prepares Skin: Ideal for prepping skin before shaving, applying self-tanner, or using moisturizer. 
• Targets Specific Issues: Can help reduce the appearance of "strawberry skin," even out skin tone, and diminish dark knees and elbows. 

How to Use Exfoliating Gloves

1. Soak: Allow your skin and the glove to soak in warm water for a few minutes. 
2. Apply Product: Add your desired body wash or soap to the glove. 
3. Exfoliate: Gently massage the glove over your body, applying controlled pressure. 
4. Rinse: Rinse your skin thoroughly. 

Important Considerations 

• Skin Type:
• While gloves are suitable for most skin types, individuals with sensitive skin, acne, or conditions like eczema should use them cautiously.
• Avoid Overuse:
• Aggressive or frequent exfoliation can cause redness, irritation, and even minor abrasions or skin superinfections.
• Check with a Professional:
• It's a good idea to consult a dermatology provider before starting regular use, especially if you use other potent skincare products.
