What are people saying about the Biodegradable Konjac Sponge?
How to use
-
Hydrate the Sponge: Before the first use (and before each subsequent use), soak the dry konjac sponge in warm water for 3–5 minutes until it becomes soft and fully expanded.
-
Add Cleanser (Optional): For a deeper clean, you can add a small amount of your favorite gentle cleanser to the sponge. However, the sponge is effective on its own due to its natural cleansing properties.
-
Gently Cleanse: Using circular motions, massage the sponge over your face and neck. Focus on areas with impurities or dry skin. The sponge is gentle enough for daily use and suitable for sensitive skin.
-
Rinse and Squeeze: After use, rinse the sponge thoroughly with warm water to remove any residue. Gently squeeze out excess water without twisting or wringing to maintain its shape and integrity.
-
Air Dry: Hang the sponge in a well-ventilated area or place it on a clean surface to air dry completely. Avoid leaving it in a damp or enclosed space to prevent bacterial growth.
-
Replace Regularly: Replace your konjac sponge every 4–6 weeks, or as soon as it begins to break down or show signs of wear, ensuring maximum hygiene and effectiveness.
Notes:
-
Konjac sponges are fully biodegradable, so when it's time to replace yours, you can compost it or dispose of it with organic waste.
-
Avoid using the sponge if it feels too rough or damaged, as it may irritate the skin.
