Exfoliating Body Mitt — Dual-Texture Mitt for Scrubs, Bumpy Skin & Fake Tan Removal

The small thing that makes everything else work.

A scrub applied with bare hands does maybe half the job. The mitt is what turns it into a proper exfoliation.

The experience

Two textures, one mitt. The firmer weave handles knees, elbows and the backs of arms; the softer side is for everywhere that needs a lighter touch. It fits properly, so you can actually reach your own back, and it rinses clean rather than holding onto product.

The details

• Dual-texture weave — firm on one face, polishing on the other
• Elasticated cuff so it stays on wet hands
• Hang loop, because a mitt that dries properly lasts far longer
• Machine washable — wash it weekly
• Works with a scrub, with body wash, or dry on clean skin

How to use

Damp skin, damp mitt. Work in circles, using long strokes on legs and arms. Two to three times a week alongside your scrub. Rinse it out after every use and hang it to dry.

Where it fits

Pairs with the Himalayan Salt Body Scrub for rough skin on legs and arms, and with the Sugar & Sea Salt Body Scrub as the everyday option. It also takes fake tan off cleanly, which is what most people end up using it for in summer.

FAQ

Do exfoliating mitts actually work better than hands?
Yes, meaningfully. The weave creates friction your fingertips can't, which is why the same scrub feels twice as effective with one.

How often should you use an exfoliating mitt?
Two to three times a week. Daily use on the same area will leave skin tight and sensitised.

How do you clean an exfoliating mitt?
Rinse thoroughly after every use, hang to dry somewhere airy, and machine wash weekly. A mitt left damp in a shower corner grows bacteria.

How long does one last?
Around three months with regular use. Replace it when the texture flattens out or it stops rinsing clean.

Can you use it on your face?
No — the weave is built for body skin.

Does it remove fake tan?
Yes. Work on damp skin with a little body oil first, which helps lift the colour evenly instead of in patches.

Can you use it on freshly shaved skin?
Best not to. Give it a day, same as with a scrub.

Mitt or dry brush — which?
A mitt is used wet in the shower with product; a dry brush is used on dry skin before. The mitt is more effective at actual exfoliation.
