As it says on the original
Konjac sponge website, the sponge is simple, effective, deep cleansing and
pure. The Konjac sponge is eco friendly, 100% natural and made from pure edible
vegetable roots and fiber. Konnyaku (the vegetable used) has been used for
1,500 years in Asia as an eco friendly beauty treatment for sensitive skin.
In my house we have 2
sponges one for me and one for my teenage kids. The one I use is the Konjac
French Pink Clay facial puff sponge. It has nourishing minerals and is designed
to “purify even the most sensitive skin”. The one, which my kids use, is the
Konjac Bamboo Charcoal facial puff sponge. This has rich activated carbon and
is designed to clean pores and remove blackheads and dirt.
I use the pink sponge in
the evening after I remove my make-up. I clean my skin with the sponge and it
leaves my skin feeling nice and smooth. The sponge is very gentle on my skin;
it cleans, exfoliates and removes dead skin cells. It’s quite soft and the
first time I used it I thought it didn’t do anything and I was just cleaning my
face with a soft cotton ball. But after I finished my face looked so bright, clean
and smooth and it was ready for the rest of my evening routine.
My kids use the bamboo
charcoal sponge and they absolutely love it. They’re so lazy that it’s perfect
for them! It does a great job with their skin, unclogging their pores, removing
dry and dead skin as well as removing their blackheads. I also use the black
sponge as well as my kids as its perfect for all ages and great on all types of
skin.
How to use this sponge:
It depends on where you
order the sponge from, from some websites they send it to you in a box and its
dry, other websites will send it to you in a bag and its soft and ready to use.
If it comes in the dry form, you just need to place it under warm/hot water
depending on what you prefer to wash your face with and the sponge will begin
to soften. Once the sponge is completely soaked throughout and soft its ready
to use. I simply rub the sponge on my face in circular motions.
If the sponge comes in the
bag already soft and ready to use, just rinse it under warm water just to clean
it before using. You can also use the
sponge with your cleanser however it’s not really necessary because the sponge
does a great job on its own.
After I'm done with the
sponge I simply rinse it under warm water and then hang it on a little hook beside
my sink in the bathroom to dry. After its fully dry it becomes small and hard
and ready to use again. The sponge usually lasts between 2-3 months depending
on level of usage.
