Recently discovered Korean "Italy towels" and they have all but got rid of my keratosis pilaris and severe dry skin

[KeiraKnightleyActsWithHerTeeth]

I just wanted to share my event discovery. They are Korean exfoliating product called "Italy Towels" (you can find them on Amazon by searching "Korean Italy Towels" ) which are like a little exfoliating glove but miles better.
I have really terrible dry skin on my arms due to ill health and bright red keratosis pilaris.

I have used them for around a month (after a long bath), along with my regular body lotions and the difference is astonishing. My KP (which was visable from the other side of the room) is all but gone and I no longer have dry skin. The difference they have made to me is incredible, I no longer feel like I have to cover up even in heatwaves.

Just wanted to give them a shout out because they are cheap and really work.

Thanks for sharing the discovery! I used them after a shower earlier this week and some skin came off but it felt a lot smoother. did it again today after a soak in the bath and my arms are supersoft! Legs are soft too but probably need a few more sessions to get rid of all the bumps.
A miracle product ☺

I'm so glad so many of you are getting good results. I'm amazed at how good they are.

Sorry @countyhall just seen your post now.

In SW London there's a fantastic one in Fulham:

SE London:

& Harrods has the best one - don't be put off and assume it will be overpriced either, because they have a 'Discovery Hammam' 1hr treatment for £45, which is very reasonable for the service.

Meanwhile, my Korean Italy towels arrived today and I can't wait to try them out at bath time tonight! Thanks OP 🙌🏻

Think you lot have brought too many of these LOL. I've just clicked on the ebay link and the price is now £103.14 for a pack of 3 cloths, think I'll stick with Amazon :)

I bought at this on eBay [[http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152380829003 these]] on ebay, as boycotting amazon. Only used them once so far so will report back when I know more!

Messed that up! these

Don't want to piss on the parade....but viscose rayon production is really toxic. Bad for workers, bad for the world. Google it!

Just used mine for the first time. Have been a Clinique Sparkle Skin user but recently discovered that contains microbeads so wanted an alternative. Just seen Malermalergoni's post and that's disappointing. The cloths bloody work though. Have a waxing like mild irritation on my legs but they are so smooth.

Gold Bond cream for bumpy skin works brilliantly on my upper arms (not sure if it's available in the UK, though)

I love a Korean beauty product - have just ordered some. I'll be thrilled to bits if they sort out my KP as I've battled with it for years.

Can someone talk me through the order? Am I right in thinking:

Quick shower for cleaning purposes;
Long bath - 25 to 30 mins with no soap/bubbles;
Use the towel thingy with long sweeping strokes - for how long?

Do you use it on wet, dry or damp skin?
Do you put any cream on afterwards?
How regularly do you use the towel thingy?

Mine actually arrived yesterday. So I soaked for about 20 mins in the bath (which is my maximum boredom threshold).

I dabbed my skin dry, wet the Korean cloth and scrubbed away for 10 mins. Didn't see any dead skin slough off and skin isn't particularly smoother.

Should I soaked for longer?

butterflyfree- can you please tell me more about hamman? what do you wear? is it open plan or are you treated in private room? really interested but very body conscious- txs

Ok I'm sold on this Moroccan bath! Am googling where to have one in Manchester...

Hi @badasscafe1 - the ones I've been to have always been private; just you and the therapist who will do the application of the mud mask & the scrubbing. In UAE we just wear those delightful little disposable paper thongs, but when I do it here in the UK they've always been a bit more conservative and asked you to bring your own bathing suit or bikini.

I think it's generally Turkish hamams that have a communal hamam area. Moroccan tends to be private, but double-check before you book as it may differ from place to place.

butterfly- thanks- would be going to one of the London ones you mentioned-- is harrod's your top choice?

Let me know if you find one , problem!

I'm gonna give these a try. I'm SICK of ingrowing hairs! Thanks for the heads up.

Cracked heel cream with urea works for KP on upper arms and elsewhere.

Baa baaa whoops me too I just bought one!

Has anyone has any success at treating facial KP? My 13 yr old son has it along his jawline and he is very self conscious about it

Mine are taking an age to arrive from Amazon

My sister bought me a Japanese seaweed towel-is that something like?

Baaaaaaaa!
Has anyone used these on their face?

How are people getting on with them? (Those of you who ordered early) I was kind of presuming they weren't that amazing for everyone as there hadn't been any updates but maybe you're all busy scrubbing away.

I have used it once so far Enid didn't notice a huge difference tbh
