About this product

What your hands will notice
  • The surface looks porous and softly textured, with tiny openings that hold water as you cleanse.
  • Its lavender-toned colour brings a quiet, playful softness to the bathroom shelf.
  • The heart shape turns a practical face wash into a small moment of care.
  • Once saturated, the sponge carries a layer of water over the skin, so the cleanse feels cushioned rather than scratchy.
  • It suits a simple routine: soak, sweep over the face or body, rinse, and leave to dry.
Konjac root fibre, shaped for gentle cleansing

This sponge is made from vegetable fibres of konjac root. Konjac has been used in East Asian bathing and skincare routines for generations, valued especially for its soft texture once soaked.

The photo shows a rounded heart form with a fine, open-pore surface. No hanging loop is visible, so let it dry somewhere airy after use.

How to use it in your routine

Soak the sponge in water until it has fully softened, then squeeze out the excess gently. Use it on damp skin with water alone, or with a small amount of cleanser if that is already part of your routine.

After use, rinse it well and press out the water without twisting. Leave it to dry between uses, and replace it when the texture begins to break down or no longer feels fresh.

A Japanese cleansing tradition, simply kept

Konjac sponges are closely associated with Japan, where they were first used as bath sponges for newborn babies more than 100 years ago. Their popularity later spread through China, Southeast Asia and Europe as a plant-fibre alternative for facial and body cleansing. The appeal is simple: when the konjac fibres are saturated, the sponge holds water at the surface, creating a soft buffer between hand and skin.

Common questions

Can I use it without cleanser?
Yes. A konjac sponge can be used with water alone, or alongside your usual cleanser if you prefer.
Why does it feel firm when dry?
Konjac fibre firms up as it dries. Soak it fully before use so the texture becomes soft and springy again.
Can it be used on the body as well as the face?
Yes. It is described as a facial and body cleansing sponge, so it can be used wherever you want a gentle wash.
