It does not count on any hair removal of the mitten. This mitten, in fact, melkozernaya sandpaper. I took to peel the top layer of keratinized skin. I tried and fell in love with this product! To me it is suitable for 100%! My skin is prone to rapid coarsening. I can not say that it is thick, like a turtle, skin sensitive and prone to irritation. As a result, the hairs grow, some trying to break through the skin on the body, are converted into inflamed hillocks, a feeling of goose bumps (as I love myself: and compared with a turtle, and a goose)))). It all gave me a lot of inconvenience and anxiety. Conventional scrubs does not help, yes, the skin is softer, but ingrown hairs in place. Very rough washcloths after a sauna - it works. But for regular use, this mitten godsend. Before epilating, I rub the problem areas, the hairs are released, the skin like a baby's ass. Yes, I admit, there is a burning sensation, but no damage to the skin. Redness passes after 2 minutes. Of course, it is as much as rub. A couple of days after epilation I again passers-mitten, and frees the body from the rough skin, to the hair does not grow into and then a thick layer of cream. I forgot about all the troubles with rough skin and ingrown hairs! I am delighted! Review helpful - click YES and read my other reviews on my page.
