Konjac Sponge Green Tea Teardrop Facial Exfoliating

A green tea konjac sponge begins as a firm little teardrop, then drinks in water and turns soft, springy and cushion-like. Made from vegetable fibres of konjac, it gives daily facial cleansing a slower, gentler rhythm, with light exfoliation built into the touch.

From firm fibre to cloud-soft cleanse

• The texture changes under water, becoming soft and porous enough to glide over damp skin.
• Use it with water alone for a simple cleanse, or pair it with your usual facial cleanser.
• The teardrop shape feels considered in the hand, with a pointed end for smaller areas of the face.
• Its plant-fibre surface offers gentle exfoliation without the scratchiness of a rough scrub.
• It suits a pared-back bathroom ritual, especially if you prefer reusable tools over disposable pads.

The green tea addition

Green tea has a long place in East Asian daily life, from drinking rituals to skincare-inspired routines. Here, it gives this konjac face sponge its botanical character, chosen for a cleansing ritual that feels fresh, quiet and uncomplicated rather than heavily fragranced or abrasive.

Konjac plant fibre

Konjac is a plant root fibre used in East Asia for generations, including in food and personal care. In sponge form, the fibre holds water well, creating a soft, bouncy surface that works with the skin rather than dragging across it.

How to use and care for it

Soak the sponge in water until fully softened, then squeeze it gently before use. Massage over damp skin with light circular movements, using water alone or a small amount of cleanser.

After cleansing, rinse thoroughly, press out excess water without twisting, and leave it somewhere airy to dry. Replace it when the texture no longer softens properly, starts to break down, or no longer feels fresh.

A quiet East Asian skincare tool

Konjac sponges come from a practical tradition of using plant fibre for gentle washing. The konjac plant is best known in parts of East Asia for its root, which is also used to make konnyaku, a jelly-like food. As a skincare tool, the same plant-based fibre is shaped into a porous sponge that becomes soft with water, making it useful for daily cleansing without the feel of a harsh exfoliator.

A small gift for a calmer bathroom shelf
