  • 100% natural, plastic-free sponge
  • Made from the Konjac plant
  • A replacement for plastic or sea sponges
  • Silky-soft and gentle when moistened
  • Great for sensitive skin or for babies!
  • Ideal for using on the face or body

These magical sponges make a great alternative to plastic sponges or sea sponges (made from living creatures!). Perfect for applying facial washes, cleansers, and toners or makeup. These silky-soft sponges are even gentle enough for babies. 

Why Swap?

Artificial, synthetic sponges are frequently made from polyurethane foam. Along with releasing ozone-depleting chemicals during manufacturing, polyurethane can also emit formaldehyde, other irritants, and cancer-causing dioxins when incinerated. Sea sponges are not much of a better solution, environmentally. According to the Australian Marine Conservation Society, sea sponges are under threat of extinction for a variety of reasons including over-harvesting.

 

How to Use:

  • Initially, the Konjac sponge will appear hard but when soaked in water it will become soft and spongy.
  • Apply a little pressure and use in circular motions on face or body.
  • The sponge should not be wrung out but should be allowed to dry naturally.
  • Sponges should be replaced every 2-3 months.
  • Sponges can be home composted after use.
