How do I decide which side of the glove to use and how much pressure to apply?

Your choice depends on your goal. Use the gentler side when your primary aim is to polish the skin's surface and lift away flakes that make it feel rough. This side is suitable for overall body use, especially on areas where you want smoother-feeling skin. Use the more textured side when you want a stimulating massage effect to promote a refreshed, warmed feeling, often preferred for areas like thighs or buttocks.

For pressure, start lightly. On sensitive skin or areas like the inner arms, a gentle touch is usually sufficient. On thicker skin zones, such as the outer thighs, heels, or shoulders, you can apply more firm, deliberate strokes. The key rule is to stop immediately if the rubbing feels too strong or causes discomfort. The glove is designed for mechanical action, so letting the texture do the work is more effective than pressing hard. Always avoid using it on skin that is already irritated, damaged, or freshly shaved.
