Why can’t I use a regular body mitt on my face?

• The rougher texture of our body mitt is intended for thicker areas of skin. This exfoliating facial mitt is designed with a more delicate texture – gentle, yet still effective for buffing away dead, dry skin.

Why are there two sides?

• One side is made of terry cloth for cleansing while the other side is made of a plant-based viscose fiber that’s perfect for facial exfoliation.

How often should I use it?

• The terry cloth (cleansing side) can be used as needed – it’s essentially a gentle washcloth. The exfoliating side can be used lightly with cleanser once or twice per week depending on your usage of other exfoliating products or treatments. Alternatively, to avoid over-exfoliation, use the exfoliating side 1–4 times per month on well-softened skin after a long shower to buff away dead, dry skin cells. You should never exfoliate over cuts, burns, sunburns, or infected, irritated, or otherwise compromised skin.

How do I keep it clean?

• Simply hand-wash the mitt and hang-dry to extend its lifespan. Keep in a place where it can dry between uses. Do not wash or dry in a washing machine or dryer and replace after approximately 3 months of use.

How long will it last?

• All of our exfoliating fabric products are reusable so you can get great results over and over again! We recommend replacing them approximately every 3 months.

Does this help with acne?

• While they’re great on clogged pores, blackheads, and bumpy texture, using physical exfoliators on active acne (whiteheads) can spread bacteria and cause more breakouts. You should never use a razor over active acne like whiteheads, open blemishes, or other sensitive skin breakouts.

Should I use any products with it?

• For everyday cleansing, use a mild cleanser with the terry cloth side. If lightly exfoliating with the viscose side, cleanser should be also used. For less frequent, deeper exfoliation, use the viscose side on softened skin (after several minutes in the shower) with no products.
