What is a konjac sponge?
The konjac sponge is derived from the mountainous regions of Asia, where is it created from the fibrous root of the konjac plant. Originally used as a dietary and medicinal food, its beauty origins extend 1,500 years into the past when locals began using the fiber to gently cleanse sensitive skin. Its natural texture allows for effective exfoliation of dry, rough skin without irritation, making it an ideal beauty tool.
