PRODUCT CARE:

How do I use the KONJACU Sponge?
- It’s made from 100% natural vegetable fiber, that’s why it needs to be soaked in water before using.
- Before use, gently soak it in water briefly until the sponge becomes damp and soft. DO NOT USE WHEN IT IS STILL HARD!
- Be sure to soak plenty of water in the sponge then gently work the sponge over the skin area.
- Gently run the water-soaked sponge over your skin. You don’t need to scrub too hard, the sponge’s natural PH balancing ingredient will cleanse dirt/oil from your skin.

Can I use soap with the KONJACU Sponge?
- Wet sponge and apply favorite cleanser then gently squeeze to create lather. Massage gently in a circular motion to skin. For sensitive skin, simply use water and massage gently. The KONJACU Sponge is a natural pH balancer and cleaner, so soap is optional.

Should I dry the KONJACU Sponge after use?

The KONJACU Sponge is 100% natural with no preservatives & no additives so it is important that you properly clean & press out excess water from the sponge after using and keep it dry in a well-ventilated area or it may become moldy. Do not twist or squeeze the sponge too hard, it may damage the sponge. We recommend that you keep the sponge refrigerated if it is not used for a long period of time.
