Le Edge exfoliation tool review

“An idea is salvation by imagination.”
Frank Lloyd Wright
I am not sure if it is salvation I am looking for but, the winter doldrums have gotten to me. Do you ever feel like you get caught up doing the same old thing? For better or worse, the same old thing often yields the same boring results. Some days I just want something new and exciting to happen.
Well it looks like spring is here! I was very excited when I received Le Edge, a new tool used to exfoliate the entire body. This tool is similar to a razor on steroids in design.
It is super easy to use. Just glide Le Edge ($34.99) over wet skin and it removes dead skin cells and debris. The handle is made of a non-slip ergonomic plastic and the blade is made of surgical stainless steel. I am a person who likes to see the results. The dead skin and debris is right there for you to see under the blade. I could not believe it, it is such a simple concept that works so well.
Let’s get down and dirty, I love a good hot bath after a long hard day. It just soothes my soul. The thing I hate about baths is there is often an ugly ring that has to be scrubbed off the tub. Well, that ring is actually dead skin cells and debris. Guess what? When you start using Le Edge there is virtually no bathtub ring!
I also loved that I could exfoliate my whole body more evenly than using my typical exfoliating/scrubbing products. The handle of Le Edge also helps me reach places that I would not be able to get to with traditional exfoliation. My skin just felt better after using this. I felt RENEWED. My products were able to soak better because they were not sitting on dead skin. My skin was healthier and my skin tone was more even.
In fact, according to Le Edge regular use of this tool may help with a number of skin issues including dry skin, blemishes, ingrown hairs and Keratosis (those little bumps that sprout up on the upper arms).
Pros:
• Easy and Effective
• No mess
• One time cost
• Great for travel because nothing can open up in your suitcase
Cons:
• Different tactile experience (some folks might prefer the feeling of scrubbing)
• No aromatherapy
Tip: I missed the aromatherapy part of exfoliation so I started adding essential oils in the experience. Problem solved!

Oh man, I will have to get one of these. I have kp on my arms badly and being so pale it stands out. Definitely on my wishlist!
Wow, what a neat product!
Oh man, I would love to try this! I’ve got keratosis pillaris and skin that likes to slough off regularly, so this seems like an amazing product!
It kind of weirds me out and kind of intrigues me at the same time! Seeing all of the icky skin cells would be gross but it’d be nice getting them off of my body… and using a scraper seems a little weird, but fairly sanitary since it’d be easier to clean than like a loofa or something.
I love the fact that you can clean it and actually have some control. In testing I used diffrent methods bleach, vinegar and perioxide– they all did the job and did not affect the intergity of the blade.
I’m with you, Marilyn! I’m fascinated AND a little weirded out. But I am perfectly willing to overlook the weirding out if it works, and it sounds like it does! This is on my wish list now…
Sometimes–you just have to try something outside the box. Think about the clarisonic- it was considered outside the box at one time. Now people can’t “clean” their face without it.
Wow, this is really neat. I love to soak in the tub, too. No bathtub ring? I’m sold, @hao9703 !
Removing the bathroom ring is one of the worst cleaning job in the bathroom as far as I am concerned! I really have grown to love this product. In fact, when I forget to pack it– I really miss using it. I know to some people the price may be a bit high. But, you should think of it as equal to buying sugar scrub–plus it lasts much longer.
I give this product a solid four stars.
Great point @hao9703 on the pricing vs an expensive sugar scrub. At first this may seem expensive, but for those with skin issues it could be a lifesaver.
I tested Le Edge and found it to be really simple to use and pretty darn effective. I have lots of problems with ingrown hairs no matter how I choose to get rid of them (shaving, waxing, depilators – all lead to red bumps and ingrowns). One way to keep they away is with good exfoliation. And so far, so good! I’ve used Le Edge after shaving (a day after not right after) and the red bumps and ingrown hairs are not appearing on my legs or thighs. Woot.
All that exfoliation and no ingrown hairs or bath tub ring…that’s worth the price! Great review, Holly – I’m intrigued!
I want to try this! I’ve had KP on my arms since I was younger and they come and go but I wish it’d just go away forever. This sounds like it would help!
Wait, so it’s like a squeegee/ice-scraper-ish tool for your skin? That’s SO COOL!
Are there any stores that I can buy this besides Amazon? I was just wondering if chain stores like Target or Bed Bath & Beyond carried these. Thanks!
