Common kese questions

Can I use a kese on my face?

Yes, you can use a kese on your face—but only with our Face Kese, designed specifically for gentle facial exfoliation and delicate skin care. Unlike body keses, the Face Kese is crafted to respect the unique needs of facial skin, offering a safe and effective way to renew your complexion.

Who Should Avoid It?

If you have very sensitive skin or active acne, we recommend consulting a dermatologist before using the Face Kese. Even gentle exfoliation might irritate these conditions, so it’s best to play it safe.

Why Not Use a Body Kese on Your Face?

Important! Never use our body or back keses on your face. These are made for tougher skin areas and can be too harsh, potentially causing irritation or damage. Your facial skin deserves gentler care, and using the wrong kese could disrupt its natural balance.

Benefits of the Face Kese

  • Tailored Design: Perfect for facial exfoliation, it removes dead skin cells without over-scrubbing.
  • Skin-Friendly: Maintains your skin’s moisture and balance while delivering a smooth, refreshed feel.
  • Glow Boost: Regular use reveals healthier, radiant skin—safely and effectively.

For the best results, stick to the Face Kese for your facial care routine. It’s the ideal choice for anyone looking to exfoliate gently and keep their skin happy!

Can I use an exfoliating kese everyday?

Just like your face, you don't want to be exfoliating daily as it may compromise your skin barrier. Keses should be used every 7-10 days for your skin feel it's best.

How do I use a body exfoliating kese in the shower or bath?

To use your kese all you need is a hot shower or bath.

It takes a few minutes for your skin to soften; so if you're in a bath just relax, and if you're in the shower do your hair products first. Once your skin is softened put on your kese (or hold it if it is the back kese), and stroke your skin in long firm strokes. If you're using a body kese, outstretch your fingers and use the kese with your whole palm. Flat, firm, and long strokes, and don't overdo it!

Every body is different so you might see large rolls of dead skin, or you might have a milky consistency of dead skin roll off.

Once you're done, rinse and hang your kese, and soap your body as you normally would.

Trust the process, and be sure to moisturize your skin and hydrate with a glass of water after your bath or shower.

How do I wash my kese?

Simply rinse your kese after use and hang it in the shower. Don't forget to flip it inside out to thoroughly cleanse.

You can put it inside out in a delicates bag and wash it in the machine every few months, but make sure there are no bleach or harsh chemicals that may damage the kese's texture. Simply hang to dry.

What is the sensitive skin kese mitt for?

The Sensitive Kese is a body exfoliator crafted specifically for individuals with sensitive skin, including those dealing with conditions like eczema and psoriasis. It features a finer weave, which delivers a gentler exfoliation experience compared to the Normal to Bumpy Kese. While the latter is built for skin that can tolerate deeper exfoliation to tackle more pronounced texture, the Sensitive Kese focuses on providing a softer touch. This makes it perfect for delicate skin that needs care without irritation. By softly removing dead skin cells, it leaves your skin feeling smoother and healthier, all while respecting its unique sensitivities.

Why It’s Special

  • Gentle Exfoliation: The finer weave ensures that exfoliation is effective yet mild, reducing the risk of aggravating sensitive skin.
  • Skin Condition Friendly: Ideal for eczema, psoriasis, or any skin prone to discomfort.
  • Contrast to Other Keses: Unlike the Normal to Bumpy Kese, it prioritizes comfort over intense scrubbing.

How It Fits In

Incorporating the Sensitive Kese into your skincare routine can help maintain smooth, healthy skin without the harshness that typical exfoliators might bring. It’s a thoughtful choice for anyone looking to care for their skin with kindness.

How does a kese exfoliator enhance the effectiveness of my skincare products?

Key Benefits for Your Skincare Routine

  • Enhances Product Absorption: SENDE Keses exfoliate dead skin cells, clearing the way for your serums, moisturizers, and treatments to penetrate more deeply. This means your skin can fully absorb the active ingredients in your other products, making them more effective.
  • Boosts Hydration: Especially for sensitive skin—prone to dryness or conditions like eczema or psoriasis—this product helps your skin retain moisture better. By removing flaky, dead skin, it allows your hydrating creams and serums to lock in moisture more efficiently.
  • Improves Texture and Smoothness: Regular use smooths out rough patches, creating an even surface. This helps your skincare products apply more evenly and work consistently across your skin, rather than sitting on bumpy or uneven areas.
  • Reduces Irritation from Buildup: Dead skin and impurities can clog pores or trap irritants, which can interfere with your other products. The Sensitive Kese keeps your skin clear, letting your soothing or healing treatments focus on their job without battling buildup.

Why It Works

The intricate viscose Turkish weave provides effective exfoliation to:

  • Remove Barriers: Dead skin cells can block your skincare from sinking in. By clearing them away, SENDE Keses ensure nothing stands between your skin and your favorite products.
  • Prepare Your Skin: Think of it as a primer for your routine. Using it before applying other products gives your skin a fresh, clean slate, so everything you put on afterward works at its peak.
  • Complement Your Routine: It’s designed to pair seamlessly with your existing bodycare and skincare lineup, enhancing their performance without causing irritation.
