This week’s Quick Pick is a bit of a bargain and a handy buy for anyone who’s baring more skin, holidaying or fake tanning any time soon. The Calcot Super Smoothing Scrub Mitt is, as the name suggests, an exfoliating mitt that makes body-buffing an extremely quick and easy experience. It works like a glove, so you literally just put it on and get buffing! I’ve included an extremely helpful picture of my wearing it on my hand below, for your viewing pleasure…
I was actually surprised by just how course the mitt is – it isn’t for those with sensitive skin! However, obviously, varying pressure makes a big difference, so using light strokes all over the body then slightly firmer strokes on tricky areas (knees, elbows, feet and hands) makes for a very quick and easy body smoothing experience. I like using this with a moisturising scrub or wash, and I find this especially handy pre-tanning. It’s also good thing to do before shaving or hair removal since it smooths skin, reducing the risk of ingrown hairs. It’s cheap as chips at £3.99 here – link.
