Using a Kessa glove, the ancient method of exfoliating massage is known as Kessa. The coarse glove is used in traditional Moroccan spa hammams to exfoliate dead skin, dirt, and oil. Your body will be massaged while being soaped up and exfoliated of all the dead skin. Kessa is frequently used in traditional baths and hot stone spas where you may rejuvenate your skin with an Andalusian cleansing massage. The Kessa glove is used during a skin-purifying washing procedure on a heated stone using organic soap, which is frequently combined with a soothing massage.

How to use it?
A traditional Moroccan exfoliating glove called a kessa has been used for generations in hammams (public bathhouses). Dead skin cells are removed from the skin by exfoliating with it. Here are the basic instructions for using a Kessa glove.

• Put some warm water on Kessa’s glove.
• Apply soap to your skin.
• Scrub your skin’s surface gently with the Kessa glove by moving it up and down. Avoid making circular movements since they could irritate you.
• To get rid of any dead skin cells, rinse your body with water and soap.
For maximum results, it is advised to apply the Kessa glove once or twice every week. The Kessa glove should be washed with water after each use and hung to dry.
