The morning face-wash can be a quick necessity, but it can also be a ritual - a slow, gentle moment that prepares the skin and the mood for the day. This drop-shaped konjac sponge is a tool for such a ritual: made from natural plant fibre, with ginger added, it cleanses the skin gently yet effectively. Particularly suited to Mature skin.
The experience
The konjac sponge is hard and brittle when dry, but soaked in warm water for a few minutes it turns into a soft, springy, creamy-textured sponge. It glides gently over the skin - never scratching, never irritating - while still lifting away dead skin cells and surface impurities. The sensation is more like a gentle caress than scrubbing.
Konjac and ginger
Konjac (Amorphophallus konjac) is an East Asian tuberous plant whose root fibres are used to make the sponges. The sponge's pH is mildly alkaline, so it does not disrupt the skin's natural acidic balance. Ginger is a natural antioxidant whose skincare role has long been known. Worked gently into the skin, it can stimulate circulation and may have a favourable effect on skin renewal. The ginger version is particularly recommended for mature skin that would like to regain its tone. The soft yellow-brown tone of the sponge also comes from this added ingredient.
How to use it
Soak the sponge in warm water for a few minutes until fully softened. Then apply gentle, circular movements on the face or body - it works with or without soap. After use, rinse with clean water, squeeze it out, and hang it in a well-ventilated place to dry, away from direct sunlight. Replace it every 1-3 months with regular use.
