rather disappointing [SEP] this is like a fancy piece that is basically fine sandpaper you are basically running really fine sandpaper over your skin yes it does get rid of the hairs and it is great for exfoliating but the paper surface is recessed from the mold of the gold holder so you have to kind of push really hard i have seen other designs of the same product that do a better job anyway next time i will just buy a package of really super fine sandpaper and do the same thing only better i do not recommend this product i consider it a poor purchase choice on my part and a waste of money
