FAQ
Your Questions, Answered Honestly
Intermission is currently in development. Here's where things stand, and what to expect as we keep building.
About the Brand
What is Intermission?
Intermission is a personal care brand built for the in-between moments of the day, when you’ve been active, worked up a sweat, or simply need to reset before whatever comes next.
Our first product is a large-format, individually wrapped body wipe designed to help cleanse sweat, dirt, and odor-causing residue from the skin without needing to rinse.
For when you sweat, but you’re not done with the day.
Who is Intermission being developed for?
Active, social, professional men roughly 28–45 who move between work, travel, activity, and plans, and want a simple way to feel refreshed without a complicated routine.
Is Intermission meant to replace a shower?
The stretch of time after sweating, traveling, or being in the heat, when you're not going straight home but still want to feel presentable before your next stop.
Is Intermission currently available for purchase?
We’re currently developing and validating the first Intermission product.
Joining the Founding Refresh List is the best way to receive product updates, hear about testing opportunities when available, and be among the first to know when Intermission launches.
About the Product
What is a Refresh Body Wipe?
A large-format, individually wrapped, rinse-free body wipe, designed to be carried in a bag, car, or dopp kit and used whenever a full refresh isn't possible or practical.
What does the Refresh Body wipe actually do?
Intermission is designed to help cleanse sweat, dirt, and odor-causing residue from your skin while leaving you feeling refreshed and ready for what’s next.
No rinse needed.
When would I use Intermission?
Intermission is made for moments like after the gym, pickleball, golf, tennis, soccer, a hot commute, outdoor events, travel, or any time you’ve been sweating and aren’t headed home yet.
It’s built for sweat, heat, travel, and the plans after.
Is Intermission meant to replace a shower?
No. Intermission is not a shower replacement.
It’s a fast, convenient reset for the time between being active and whatever comes next, whether that’s dinner, errands, a meeting, travel, or another stop in your day.
Can the Refresh Body Wipe be used on the face?
Facial-use guidance will depend on the final formulation, manufacturer documentation, and a completed safety review. We're not currently making claims about facial use.
What makes Intermission different from regular body wipes?
Most wipes are designed around general hygiene, bathrooms, babies, or one-off cleaning occasions.
Intermission is being developed specifically around the post-sweat, pre-next-stop moment, with portability, wipe size, skin feel, cleansing performance, and discreet individual packaging all considered around that use case.
Is Intermission fragrance-free?
A fragrance-free option or a very light clean scent is being evaluated. Final formulation decisions will be based on product testing and customer feedback.
How big is each wipe?
The current product direction is approximately 10 inches by 12 inches, but final dimensions remain subject to testing and manufacturing.
How will Intermission be packaged?
The planned format is individually wrapped body wipes packaged together in a portable multipack.
Individual wrapping keeps each wipe ready for use and makes it easy to carry one in a gym bag, work bag, backpack, carry-on, or wherever you might need it.
How many wipes come in a pack?
The current plan is one individually wrapped sachet per use, with ten sachets in the initial outer pack.
Do I need water or a sink to use it?
No. Intermission is designed to be rinse-free, so you can use it wherever your day takes you.
That could be in a gym locker room, office restroom, airport, car before your next stop, or anywhere else you have a little privacy to reset.
Will Intermission leave my skin feeling sticky?
The product is being developed specifically with a non-sticky after-feel in mind.
We want Intermission to leave your skin feeling clean and refreshed rather than coated in product.
When will Intermission be available?
We’re currently developing and validating the first Intermission product.
