FAQs

Can I use the Konjac sponge without a cleanser?

Yes, it can be used with just water for a very gentle morning cleanse or to massage the skin.

Is this suitable for all skin types?

Yes, the konjac plant is naturally pH neutral and gentle, making it suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin.

How often should I replace my sponge?

It is recommended to replace the sponge every 1 to 2 months depending on daily use.

Can I use this on my body?

While designed for the face, the soft texture is safe for body use, though you may prefer a larger sponge size for body coverage.

How do I know if the sponge is becoming moldy?

If you notice dark, permanent spots or an unpleasant smell that does not go away after a thorough rinse, the sponge is compromised.

Troubleshooting

The sponge has developed an odor or dark spots

This is a sign of bacterial growth. Discard the sponge immediately and ensure your next one is dried more thoroughly between uses.

The sponge is tearing or breaking apart

Avoid wringing or twisting the material. Always gently press out water between your palms to maintain structural integrity.

The sponge remains hard even after wetting

The sponge has likely reached the end of its lifespan and should be replaced.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare your sponge for the first time, rinse it thoroughly in warm water until it is fully hydrated and soft. After every use, rinse the sponge under cool running water, gently pressing it between your palms to remove excess water—avoid twisting or wringing the sponge as this can damage the fibers. Hang the sponge to air dry in a well-ventilated area. For long-term care, it is recommended to sterilize the sponge weekly by placing it in a bowl of hot (not boiling) water for a few minutes. Replace the sponge every 4 to 8 weeks depending on the frequency of use and signs of wear.
