konjac sponge is the most natural and gentle exfoliant
Konjac sponges are made out of konjac root, a porous root vegetable that grows in Asia. They work great to exfoliate the skin gently. When soaked in water, the konjac sponge becomes incredibly soft and almost feels slimy. Because of its texture, you can exfoliate every day. I have used konjac sponges for my babies too. These are six sponges in different colors, all infused with other ingredients:<br /><br />White - Pure konjac powder,<br />Black - Bamboo activated charcoal,<br />Yellow - Turmeric,<br />Dark pink - Red clay,<br />Green - Aloe vera,<br />Pink - Sakura (Cherry Blossom)<br /><br />Each sponge has a little string, which is very helpful to hang it dry. Out of the bag, these sponges are hard as a rock and need to be submerged in water for a couple of minutes. My other konjac sponge came with the instructions to microwave on high for 2 minutes to sanitize, but this brand doesn’t ask for that. After use, it’s important to rinse, squeeze out the water; your sponge will last longer and be cleaner. That should be routine with any washcloth, though, so this may be an unnecessary comment.<br /><br />These are great, I scrub my face EVERY DAY with my Red Clay konjac sponge, and my skin does not get irritated. They are recommended to change every two months, but I first have to see if they can live for two months.
