How to use and care for your Konjac Sponge

When konjac sponges are dry they're hard and a bit rough in texture. You'll need to soak the sponge in warm water before you use it.

Don't wring out your sponge like a facecloth - remember it is a natural sponge and can rip.

Use with your normal facial cleanser, makeup remover, or just with water to remove dirt, sunscreen, and/or makeup.

Rinse your konjac sponge well with cool water after use and hang to dry.

Konjac sponges can be cleaned by soaking in hot water for a few minutes.

After 4-6 weeks, or when the sponge no longer expands properly and starts to disintegrate, add it to your compost bin and get another one!

What's a Konjac Anyway?

The remarkable Konjac plant is a perennial herb originating in the high altitude mountainous areas of China, Korea, and Japan. People have been using this versatile plant for over 1,500 years for food, health care, and beauty products.

The Konjac plant also has a few other fun names, including: Konjac Potato, Devil’s Tongue, Voodoo Lily, Snake Palm, and Elephant Yam. 

As a food, it has very little flavour and is more valued for its texture. It’s often made into cakes, noodles, and a jelly that works as a vegan substitute.

Using the sponge for 2 weeks and and enjoying the soft, gentle touch on my face. I am starting to prefer the sponge over a face cloth.
