Exfoliation + moisture

Your Lotion Is Only Part Of The Healthy Skin Equation

4.8/53875 reviews90,000+ happy customers

Lotion helps hydrate. Exfoliation helps remove surface dead skin. The Ember & Root net brings exfoliation into your shower, with knotted texture for a softer feel and a flexible length for your back.

Add the shower step
During your shower
A textured wash, during your shower.

Exfoliate gently.

Surface dead skin can contribute to a rough feel. The net's knots provide texture that helps physically buff it away as you wash. Begin with gentle pressure and guide a smaller section over areas such as elbows and knees.

After your shower

Keep your moisturizer.

Keep your moisturizer in the routine. Its job is to help hydrate your skin after washing. Choose the product you enjoy and follow its directions, just as you normally would.

An end in each hand. A longer reach.

Now bring the texture to the places you keep missing.

A rough-feeling patch on your back can be easy to notice and awkward to reach. With one end of the net in each hand, you can work the flexible length across your back and adjust the pressure as you move.

For elbows and knees, fold the net into a smaller section. The texture is there whether you hold it close or open it out. Changing your grip lets you choose control for a smaller spot or length for your back.

A closer look at the step before lotion.

Wet the net and add your regular body wash. Start with a light hand and feel how the knotted mesh moves over your skin. You can gather, fold and stretch the same net as you move from one area to the next.

Physical exfoliation is the purpose of that texture. Softer-feeling skin is the goal. You don't need an elaborate new set of products to bring the step into your shower.

Routine: Wet and lather → Exfoliate gently → Rinse → Moisturize

Good to know

Questions people ask before they buy.

What if a spot still feels rough?
More pressure isn't the answer to every rough-feeling area. Skin differs, and roughness can have different causes. Follow the product directions, keep the pressure comfortable and stop if you notice irritation. The net belongs in a routine that feels good to use.
Will it feel too rough?
You set the pressure. Start light on wet skin with plenty of soap, and press harder only where you want more scrub.
It looks thin. Is there enough net?
It is an open net, not a towel, so it looks thin when you stretch it out. Bunch it up in your hand for a thick, soapy scrub, then open it out to reach your back.
How long is it?
About 40 inches. Hold one end in each hand to reach across your back.
How long does it last?
It is made to last up to a year. Rinse it and hang it open after each shower.
How much is shipping, and how long does it take?
US shipping is $7.99, and free on orders of $65 or more. Orders take 1–3 business days to process, then 5–10 business days to arrive.
What if I don’t like it?
You have 30 days to try it. If it is not for you, contact us and get your money back, even after use.

A little care, after every shower

Rinse. Hang. Ready for next time.

Rinse out soap, squeeze away excess water and hang the net open between uses. Start with light pressure on damp skin; adjust to what feels comfortable.

Rinse out soap
Hang open between uses

Make room for the step before lotion.

Choose your color and bundle. Keep the body wash and moisturizer you enjoy, and add a flexible exfoliating tool that helps you work over elbows, knees and across your back.
