I have a shower exfoliating towel, but this is actually the first time that I have used an exfoliating mit. I must say that I really found it refreshing once I was done using it.I did read the instructions and looked a few things up online.I used the mit with my apricot body scrub all over my arms and legs. Rinsed off with warm water and then shaved and rinsed. When I was finished my legs felt alot more smoother than usual. Also my shave lasted a few days longer than normal. So that was nice. The mit seems well made. It is comfortable with my hand inside and has plenty of room. I found it does take a bit to actually get it soaked and for water to absorb in it. ( Not even sure it's supposed to) but I liked it that way. Also it did mention that the first use may bleed black dye, and mine did do that for the first few rinses. It quickly stopped while on my first use of it though.I did find it a little tedious to try and rinse all my scrub out of the mit, but eventually with patience I got it.Overall I am very pleased with this mitt and will keep using it with my exfoliating towel as well.

TLDR: This Double-Layered Exfoliating Mitt is a quality product from start to finish and that is the reason for my 5-Star rating.Other things: (please note some photos are of the inside of the mitt, the macro shot is a close-up of the outer surface that is used.)Construction:As seen in the photo it is very well stitched. Following the Care Instructions I see no reason it does not last for the stated 3 months.Fit:My male hands are average in size. The comfort band starts right before the wrist and I like the length. I think it is a very good universal fit.Material:It's a double layer and I like the exfoliating side, not too rough, just right. Of note, I found the inner "soft cloth" side nice. I could see some choosing to use it inside out too. It's plenty gentle enough for both my body and face that is average skin type.Dyes:As seen in the photo I attached prior to first use I soaked it in 111.5 degree hot water and there is zero, zilch bleeding of black dye. Shrinkage if any was nominal in length and width.Instructions:Read those. I did and apparently I have never properly exfoliated using the "Traditional" method. I do however on occasion enjoy a nice long hot 15 minute shower. It's a guilty pleasure I allow myself. I found the method very effective, thank you for that Seraphic I learned something.In close:PLEASED.
