I found a silicon blush in the package. How can I use it for the mittens? Is it just a gift?

It's just an extra "thank you" for purchasing the mitts. It's a basting brush...not something that you would for the mitts.

The brush is for basting - not specifically for the mittens, but for cooking.

The brush is a baster used to slather on BBQ sauce or whatever on meats you are cooking. Free gift with the gloves.

The brush is an extra bonus, and yes, it is a gift. Isn't that nice! I have found it very useful for basting on the grill. I like that it cleans up easily as well.

I did not use it but it's for basting or putting melted butter or BBQ sauce.

Yes, the product comes with Instructions for use and you can find them on our web site: http://www.silkvirgin-usa.com The Mitt can be used with and without soap: for exfoliation - without soap; for cleansing - with soap. Main rule: When exfoliate don't use any soap prior or during the exfoliation. Soften your skin for about 10 mins and scrub your skin just with the Mitt, it removes the dead dry skin on its own. Only after completing the exfoliation you can use the Mitt with soap. If you like just to clean your skin, yes, use the Mitt with soap, every day, the Mitt increases the cleansing effect. Exfoliate with the Mitt 1/week, clean your skin with the Mitt 1-2 /day. Cleansing your face and neck with cleanser is better than with soap. The Facial Mitt is a very convenient tool for the face and neck, people tell us they use it at least couple of times a day for cleansing, massaging, we highly recommended it, and if you need a bigger mitt for your body it is available on Amazon, Silk Virgin Exfoliating Glove Mitt.

Answer here...With the Pur Mineral chisel brush. I make sure to tap out an extra powder before applying the brugh is circular motions. I also put my cover up first and then I blend and even out my face with this powder. I love this product and have been using it since high school.

Not really -- it really looks like a very fine talc powder - white - -- once "wet" with the other ingredients it can take on a shimmer -- but I would not call it shimmer -- as well - by adding it to blush - if you are exposed to the sun, you;ll get a funny tan -- as this is sunscreen.

I don't know, I haven't tried. If this is at all helpful, I do use a cream blush on top of it and it blends in just fine. I agree, it is very light. At first I thought it had lots of zinc oxide cream in it. The whole reason I bought it because is because of the 50 spf sunscreen rating. I need it. Summers I spend many hours on the water, on a lake at 7,000 feet elevation. You burn real fast there. My first real test of the product was this weekend, it did a fantastic job. Even the parts where cream blush was applied on top of it. I wish I could be more helpful.

I would suggest going on the cosmeticskinsolutions.com website and either call customer service or leave written question. They WILL respond! They are great about helping their customers.

Companies make oven mitts from silicone. I would try it. Some cooking spray to make sure the brain comes out easily.

yes, just pour a little olive oil on the really dark makeup stains and rub it together until the makeup starts to dissipate into the mitt. it will look like your spreading it around but it's really just breaking it up. after, put liquid soap (i use dr. bronner's) on it, wet with water and lather the soap and wash the mitt as usual. rinse, and all the makeup should be rinsed out and gone, if you put enough olive oil to begin with. i've used my mitt after wearing dark black eyeliner many times and my mitt has no stains at all using this cleaning method. hope it works for you too!

Jess P, The application can be tricky. When I apply to my face, I lightly spray the mitt and lightly rub across the face. I had no issues with the product getting splotchy. I also used this method for the tops of hands, feet, elbow & knees. I hope this helps.

Yes, both sides of the mitten are made with the same fabric and can be used to exfoliate.

I just use it for regular orange peel texture. I don' think that anything with sand and similar would work with it

It comes with blush, and two face colors, I'm not sure what colors they are exactly, and moisturizer.

From what I've read on other reviews, you can use the body formula on the face. I think they came out with that one first anyways and the face product is a newer addition. I used it on my face though and did not care for it. Like my review says, the product is kind of rubbery once it forms, and it ended up getting stuck on the light peach fuzz (I am Asian and have very little to begin with) and it definitely kind of hurt picking off the little rubber balls of product on my face. Lately, I have been using Origins Modern Friction as a deep exfoliator once a week and I really like it. Good luck.

Michelle I think it is a great gift. They are both gentle on the skin and feel so nice. If someone gave me that as a gift I would be so happy.

I suggest your next purchase should be three sets of the 100 piece clear colours. Seriously! Make gifts of them, one birthday at a time.

DO NOT USE ON TODDLERS unsupervised! and seniors with thin more fragile skin. If you are thinking about using them for a age group with thin or tender skin like a toddler or senior, put them in a Pot Holder pouch, this reduces chances of burning, check often, if the skin turns pink, remove as the product needs more padding. It's to hot for that person with out more padding. Each of the different products they make rise to a different heat level. The large 18 hr one reaches up to 140 degrees, and can blister unprotected skin. I use the small hand ones, but I still put them in a Pot Holder pouch. Which in turn I pin in place over the area of my lumbar that hurts, and I can't get fixed. It's like having a 24 hr heating pad. If I didn't use the Hot Hands I would not be mobile, as it reduces the pain level. The smaller hand size do not get as hot as the larger ones. Not tried the ones for feet or that stick to your skin. As a senior, my skin is fragile, so I steer clear of anything that adheres to my skin. Hope my experience with Hot Hands has helped answer your questions. They are safe to use, read the directions though. Be aware of the fragility of the skin of the person who is using them. I can handle the small ones with out padding for a short while with my hands, but to put it on the more tender skin of my back, I use the Pot Holder to mute the heat to a lower level, which makes it just like low on a heating pad that you plug in. The key is the person's skin fragility, because even on low a plug in heating pad can burn a person. Which is why the newer ones have a 2 hr timer in them.If they are going into mittens, you could wrap them in some thing like a wash cloth to mute the amount of heat. Keep checking at area, if it is pink it is going into the burn phase.
