konjac is a YES

I absolutely love my Konjac sponge. it has a weird texture. It is in no way harsh on the skin like i thought it would be as when you first take it out of the packaging its very firm. I suffer from bad blackheads and this amazing sponge does wonders for my face! i use this sponge with and without a cleanser i find that it works fine with either. i would definitely recommend this to anyone and everyone!!! definitely going to buy another one soon.

Tips: Everytime you use the sponge ensure to really wash it out as it apparently builds up quite abit of bacteria!!

The red one

Last year I was shopping on luxola(Sephora), and needed to fill the cart and brought it on a wim, I was thinking about whether I should buy a clarisonic for my skin but after watching some reviews and hearing comments on how it causes some people to break out. Decided to buy it. When you first use it soak in water for about 5 to 10 minutes to expand and soften. I love that you can use it with or without a cleanser.

Squishy delight!

I had heard about these but wasn't overly fussed about them, it was just a sponge and to me, sponges are used on your body not on your face. All of that changed when my skin expert and close friend told me that I *needed* to try it, and then another close friend agreed. Two against one, I caved, and it arrived a while later.

At first I was underwhelmed, as I thought it would be squishy and soft, but it was hard as a rock. Although, rubbing it on my face while it was like that was pretty nice so I was excited to use it. I took it into the shower with me and oh my lawd I saw the light!

The sponge turned into a lovely bunch of squish. I put my face wash on it and rubbed it around, and once rinsed off my face felt amazing. It was the best gentle exfoliation I've ever felt. My sponge however broke quite quickly, and I thought I was looking after it quite well, and I still haven't gotten around to repurchasing, but I really should. It was an amazing little thing and I'd gladly buy more.

Can't be without

I received the white coloured (collagen) one of these before Christmas when I first saw it there was no love at first sight, I didn't really even know what to do with it. It was just a hard dried up looking sponge it says before first use to soak it for 3-5 minutes, after letting it soak it almost became twice its size and looked like a sponge and feels kind of jelly like.

I start scrubbing my face and it feels amazing. Softer than a wash cloth but yet somehow my skin feels and looks so clean. I've been using this with cleanser and I swear it's the best my face has looked in a long time. My skin feels so soft and I seem to have less dry spots, but It hasn't broken me out either

This dome shaped gem is a bit smaller than the palm of your hand and has a small tie so you can hang it up while your not using it.

Before each use you have to run it under the tap or shower for a minute to let it get all soft and jelly like again. I got roughly 6 weeks use out of this before it was looking rather sad I did try to clean it once a week with antibacterial makeup brush cleaner to keep the germs at bay. Would I repurchase? Heck yes!! I reordered as soon as I threw the old one out. I really rate these sponges even more than the face brush that I loved.

Amazing!

I've seen these in the shops, heard about them, read the reviews, I'd even had one hidden away in the cupboard for months. Even so I never really felt like using it. It just seemed gimmicky and had no appeal. In my attempt to use up my stash of stuff I got this sponge out and started using it.

It starts out hard and dry but once wet is soft and almost jelly like. In the mornings I rub it wet over my face in circular motions without any cleanser. In the evening I do the same but add a cleanser to the sponge as well. It removes my make well (except for mascara which I haven't actually tried to remove using this). My skin is looking much clearer since using the sponge. It is also much smoother- more so than when I use a gritty exfoliant which is strange but amazing. I love that it's so soft against my skin and great alternative to an abraisive exfoliant. I love that it's a chemical free cleansing method, I have a body sponge too so can't wait to try that as well.

Konjac Sponge

I had these in at work and they were selling like hot cakes! I thought to myself, there must be something about these things so I better grab one before they all went.

So happy I did. This little half round sponge starts off hard but once you wet it with warm water it turns into this gorgeous soft spongy bundle of loveliness.

Once your sponge is spongy you just wash your days make up off with a circular motion and hey presto, product free cleanser. Awesome.

Wash your sponge out and hang it with its little attached string ready for tomorrow's cleansing.

I definitely will be purchasing another one of thses little beauties.

Charcoal!

I remember when I first heard about these - they were all over the internet, so I had to try one. In all honesty I was super skeptical about it, I didn't believe that it would actually do anything for my skin.

This came in a small plastic pouch and is a half circle. Mine was black and super hard to the touch. As soon as you drenched in water (like a beauty blender), it became super spongy. Unlike a regular sponge though, this had a slight slimy feeling to it when you squished it. It is difficult to explain but it felt cool!

I used this on my face with no products or cleansers. Just the sponge. It felt really soothing on my skin and didn't feel harsh or like it was tugging at my skin at all. I didn't see anything come off of my face onto the sponge, so after using this I went in with a makeup remover wipe to see if there was anything on my skin. There was only a little bit of makeup left, so I started to use this twice (one time after the other with rinsing it in water between).

I like this as it has a small string on it so that you can hang it up to dry for its next use. I used this daily and whilst I didn't notice my skin improve, it definitely didn't get any worse. After using this my skin did feel clean and soft and I do like this.

Konjac sponge

This review will be on two different types First is Natural : this is a sponge made from natural ingredients & very similar to a loofah when dried but like a beauty blender once wet it becomes pliable. It is soft to the skin once wet & it feels nice to use. I used it both with and without cleanser on makeup & no makeup this did lift of debris but not totally there as residue left behind & it also left clear looking skin. My pores didn't reduce in size & I got good few month use of it until I just the it out. 2nd: charcoal which is for oily skin I have combo to oily skin type so am happily using this I see no difference either either types I do see how it gently exfoliates my skin lifting of debris & makeup but it still leaves some behind so afterward I'm having to remove excess with my toner or a micellar water. While both types were gifts I'm happy to repurchase because it's inexpensive & does leave radiant looking skin.

Konjac sponge

I did like this sponge. And it does feel great to use - makes your skin feel nice and extra clean and smooth. But I'm not sure I would use it again. Simply because you have to go through the process of wetting it, and using it for a good few minutes and I'm not patient enough to do that on a daily basis. If you don't use it for a few days, you will need to soak it in hot water for about 5 minutes before you can use it again (it becomes quite hard and rock like) and I have a tendency to rush in the mornings so don't really have time to do that! If I had the time, I would probably continue using this!

Unique item perfect for those with sensitive skin

Love this and have repurchased and gifted. Super soft yet exfoliating this sponge is great for any type of cleanser amd also reduces how much product you need. I like it has expiry and us made of natural fibres. Gifted to friends with highly sensitive skin amd roscea amd they love it.

Tips: You'll need to find good drying spot for storage, a dry bathroom tap is find but a cold/damp bathroom then I put in sunny spot
