FAQ
WHAT IS THE MIERIS BODY MITT?
Mieris Body Mitt is an exfoliating and skin-revitalizing Mitt that helps maintain and repair skin, including skin that is damaged from the sun, scars, acne and the unwanted effects of aging as well as other skin conditions. The gentle abrasion removes the dead, outer layer of skin to stimulate and reveal new healthier skin underneath.
IS THE MIERIS MITT SUITABLE FOR MY SKIN TYPE?
Yes our mitt are suitable for all skin types; including psoriasis, sensitive skin, oily skin, dry skin, combination skin and normal skin.
WHY IS THE MIERIS BODY MITT BETTER THAN A TRADITIONAL LOOFAH?
Loofahs tend to be the perfect home for bacteria, due to the material of the scrubber. These type of exfoliators can host bacteria and cultivate as the dead skin cells get caught in the nooks and crannies of the loofahs.
WHY EXFOLIATE?
Exfoliating can help with anti-aging, cleaning pores and improving those with skin conditions such as psoriasis. Exfoliating helps to get rid of the top layer of your body’s dead skin cells, revealing your healthy skin after removal of the layer of dirt/dead skin. The lack of exfoliation can lead to a build up of dirt and trapped impurities which can lead to clogged pores and skin looking uneven.
We have seen many benefits from our customers using our Silk Exfoliating Mieris Mitt. Those with psoriasis are less prone to break outs and improvement in skin being more even toned. Our customers who use our Mitt before self-tanning or going to a tanning salon can see instant results in the evenness of tan application. We have customers with extremely sensitive skin and the drugstore available exfoliating mitts/gloves are too harsh in comparison to our silk mitt, these customers are less likely to damage their skin from rough abrasion.

HOW DO I USE THE MITT FOR BEST RESULTS?
For those on a time crunch and prefer showers you can skip steps 1-3.
Step 1: Set the mood, light a few candles (optional).
Step 2: Fill up your bath. For optimal results add 2 cups (approx 250-500g) of Epsom Salts to your bath.
Step 3: Soak for 15 - 30 minutes.
Step 4: Wet and wring your MIERIS Body Mitt. (Do not apply soap or shower gel as this will make the Mitt slippery. Save that for later.)
Step 5: Rub the skin in circular motions or up and down and side to side. You will begin to see the dead skin flake off.
To be used 1-2 times a week.
Using your exfoliating mitt more often or applying too much pressure during exfoliation may cause significant skin irritation. If you experience any redness, stinging, burning or pain, stop using the mitt and wait for your skin to recover before attempting to exfoliate again. Do not use the MIERIS mitt on sensitive areas, such as near the eyes, on sores or open skin.

After each use, rinse the MIERIS Body Mitt thoroughly in hot or warm water and hang to dry. You may use a mild hand or body soap to wash the Mitt. Remember to rinse the Mitt thoroughly to remove any soap residue.
