FAQs
Is the Konjac Heart Sponge suitable for daily use?
Yes, the Konjac Heart Sponge is designed for daily use on the face and body due to its extremely gentle nature.
Can I use this sponge with my regular facial cleanser?
Absolutely. While the sponge can be used with water alone, you can also incorporate your favorite facial cleanser for a more thorough cleanse.
How long does a Konjac sponge typically last?
With proper care and daily use, a Konjac sponge generally lasts between 1 to 3 months before it needs to be replaced.
What is the 'Peach' color indicative of?
The Peach color indicates that this specific variant has been naturally colored and possibly infused with peach extracts for aesthetic appeal and a gentle scent. It does not alter the core function of the sponge.
Why does the sponge harden after drying?
The Konjac sponge is made from natural plant fibers that absorb water. When it dries, these fibers contract and harden. This is a natural process that helps to preserve the sponge and prevent microbial growth.
Is this sponge biodegradable?
Yes, the Konjac Heart Sponge is made from 100% natural Konjac root fibers, making it fully biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
Can it be used on baby's skin?
Yes, the Konjac sponge was originally developed in Japan for bathing newborns due to its exceptional softness and natural properties.
Troubleshooting
Sponge is hard after drying.
This is normal. Simply re-soak the sponge in warm water until it becomes soft again before use.
Sponge develops a moldy smell or appearance.
This indicates the sponge was not dried properly between uses. Rinse thoroughly, squeeze out all water, and ensure it dries completely in a well-ventilated area. If mold is visible, it is time to replace the sponge.
Sponge is not cleaning effectively.
Ensure the sponge is fully saturated. For tougher cleaning needs, consider using it with a small amount of your regular cleanser.
Sponge is breaking apart prematurely.
Avoid harsh wringing or twisting. Squeeze gently to remove water. Ensure it is stored properly to prevent damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Rinse the dry sponge thoroughly with warm water until it becomes soft and pliable.
- Gently squeeze out excess water.

- Can be used with water alone or with your preferred facial cleanser or body wash.
Care:
- After each use, rinse the sponge thoroughly under cool running water.
