Category: Tips & Care
Learn exactly when to use Refresh Mist on your yoga mat and props. This FAQ covers post-practice freshening, pre-session ambiance, and maintenance tips.
Quick answer
Use Refresh Mist after practice to freshen your mat and props, or before practice to create a calming atmosphere. It is a gentle, natural spray, not a deep cleaner.
When to spray vs. when to wash
Refresh Mist is designed for light freshening between deeper cleans. If your mat is visibly dirty or has absorbed sweat, use a dedicated mat wash instead. Spraying Refresh Mist is ideal for maintaining a pleasant scent and lightly refreshing the surface.
Using Refresh Mist on props
Beyond mats, Refresh Mist works well on meditation cushions, bolsters, and blankets. A light mist can revive fabrics and padding that cannot be machine washed easily. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
FAQ: Refresh Mist for Yoga Mats

- How often should I spray my mat?
- Spray after every 2-3 practices or whenever the mat smells stale. For daily use, limit to once per session to avoid over-saturating the surface.
