Konjac Sponge

When you first see a Konjac Sponge you’ll probably say to yourself “what the heck is that?” And rightly so because it looks a bit alien and you’re not sure if you want to touch it.

Curiosity wins and when your finger touches it you’re amazed at how springy and soft it actually feels and the best part is yet come. The first cleanse!  Oh my!

Made from the natural fibres of the root of the Konjac plant (yep, related to the sweet potato), this sponge has been a staple in Japanese skincare for over a century. Not only that, the Konjac has been a part of the Japanese culture for its medicinal properties for over 1,500 years and is very rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.

Here’s why this gentle, squishy miracle worker will transform your cleansing routine into a luxury spa treatment:

• Deep Cleansing: Breaks down impurities and oil from pores, to promote a clearer complexion and naturally restore pH levels.
• Gentle Exfoliation: Buffs away dead skin cells and encourages new cell growth while the massaging action stimulates healthy blood flow for a radiant glow.
