Tried one pack and loved them so much, went right back and ordered another pack. These are just the right amount of roughness to exfoliate my 73 year old skin. I can use them dry on my arms and legs right before I apply serum or moisturizer. It sloughs off any dead skin and really seems to help the product absorb better. I love using them in the shower. I like that they hold their shape when wet and don't get too loose or so stretchy that you can't keep them on, like so many other brands I've tried. I still use exfoliating acids on other areas like my face and neck, but I prefer to use the gloves when I want something more invigorating and relaxing, like after I soak my feet when doing a pedicure. I don't expect them to last forever, but so far they've held up really well.
