Konjac Sponge by Hanne

It’s been a while since I was so excited about a product as I am right now. After one of my readers told me about the Konjac sponge I new I had to try it! This is definitely one of my new, most favorite skin care discoveries.

So, for those of you who doesn’t already know this product you probably wonder what this weird looking sponge is? Well let me tell you, it’s a 100% natural facial sponge made from Amorphophallus Konjac the Konjac potato, which is a perennial plant, native to Asia. It is hand-made in Japan and helps to clean, exfoliate and moisturize the skin. It is softer than loofah and natural sea sponges and is 100% biodegradable. The unique net like structure of the sponge, gently massages the skin and stimulates blood flow and new growth of skin cells.

The Konjac sponge comes in a couple of different versions, enriched with different types of clay, that help with particular skin conditions. They are extremely soft and can be used on any type of skin, including fragile baby skin. Those with eczema or psoriasis can use them too.

So, basically what you do is you rinse sponge in warm water allowing it to fully absorb all the water, then gently massage it all over your face, afterward, your skin feels clean, smooth and velvety. Through gentle massage, the Konjac sponge is supposed to stimulates blood flow and activate skin renewal, as well as very slightly exfoliating the skin. The sponge is very smooth and feels slightly silky on the skin. I absolutely love the feeling of this sponge on my skin, especially in the morning as it help me wake up and leave my skin looking soft and refreshed.

I’ve fallen in love with this little sponge and I’d definitely recommend it to everyone as it is such an amazing, natural and affordable beauty tool. It is an excellent addition to my skincare routine and I love that it is 100% natural.

You can buy it here (for Norwegian readers) or here.
