"I want a Konjac sponge! But what is Konajc actually? And how do you use these hard, round things?"
Konjac sponges have taken off and everyone wants one - whether pink, green, black, purple or white, there is something for everyone. But what exactly is Konajc and how do you use these new sponges so that your skin benefits the most?
Konjac sponges are made from the pure fibre of the Konjac root or Konjac potato. Konjac is the root of the devil's tongue, also known as the tear tree, which grows and is cultivated mainly in Asia. The root has been used as both a food and a medicinal ingredient in Asia for centuries, and Japanese women discovered its benefits for skin care over 150 years ago. Konjac is a real all-rounder: food, medicine and skin care.

This variant has been used by Japanese women for centuries to cleanse the face, gently exfoliate and brighten the complexion.
And in addition to the original white sponge, there are great alternatives: enriched with clay, lavender, green tea, active bamboo charcoal - so you can choose exactly the sponge that is perfectly tailored to your own skin. The best quality Konjac sponges are from The Konjac Sponge Company and from Dr Sponge. Dr Sponge's sponges also have really great ingredients like green tea, pearl powder, aloe vera and lavender!
