Konjac Sponge For Acne? How To Use and Quick Care Tips

Asian Beauty Miracle For Healing Your Skin

When it comes to beauty, Asian cultures are always coming up with new innovative technology. One of their legendary discoveries we have now integrated into our beauty regime as a norm is BB cream. Many of us especially those in the modeling and, beauty and standing in front of a camera selfie era would never think of not using it under our makeup for a flawless face.

One of the latest Asian perfect skin trends imported onto the global skincare scene and beauty world is the konjac sponge. They come in different sizes, shapes, and types. This amazing beauty aid is made from the fibers of the Konnyaku tuber and has antibacterial properties that are healthy for your skin. They can be extra moisturizing as well.  Victoria’s Best Konjac Sponge

 

This is so fun, they are also known as Elephant Yam, the Konnyaku plant is so pure, organic, and healthy that is has been used for food, medicine, and beauty as early as the fifth century. It has a reputation as a “miracle” diet food too. How cool is that?

Konjac is pretty amazing because it is rich in vitamins (A, B1, B2, B6, B12, C, D, & E), proteins, lipids, fatty acids, and natural minerals such as copper, zinc, iron, and magnesium. These ingredients help nourish and smooth your skin as well as give you a radical cleanse and not a sand-blasting exfoliation and cleanse.

The Konjac sponge is hard to the touch but is made soft enough for gentle exfoliation when drenched with warm or semi-hot water. It’s made from a natural fiber that absorbs water very easily, the sponge has a fine texture that is gentle enough for sensitive skin.

The rubbery texture (don’t confuse this with your dish sponge) creates a thick, rich lather with only a dab of cleanser. And unlike a loofah that is prone to storing bacteria, the Konjac sponge dries quickly, keeping mold and bacteria at bay.

Store it in a dry, elevated place after you cleanse, and rinse it every time you use it. This will help it stay clean and help it last longer. The average sponge is said to last one to two months.

This high-fiber sponge is ideal for oily, acne-prone skin because the fiber closely brushes against the skin, unclogging pores and gently removing dead skin. The circular movement creates faster cell turnover by activating the lymphatic system to circulate nutrients throughout the body more efficiently.

Here is what one happy customer had to say:

“If you have never used a facial sponge before, you have no idea what you have been
Missing out on! This was my first time using a sponge so I was both amused and intrigued with it. It’s very lightweight and felt hard as a rock when I first pulled it out from the box. The sponge felt fairly nice against my skin. It’s not difficult to hold and it moves across the face easily. It’s more like a lovely massage on your face! My face feels refreshed every time!! I also noticed my skin has gradually come to have a natural, healthy tone!–Amazon.com – Leticia Endicott, August 23, 2016.

How To Use Your Konjac Sponge

Using a Konjac sponge is a breeze. It has a gel-like texture that is super gentle when wet, and it exfoliates gently whether you use it solo or with a face wash. Like any sponge, it shrinks and reduces to half its size when dry.

After an oil, pre-cleanse to remove makeup, rinse with a small amount of soap and warm water to get the excess oil on your face. Then put a dime-sized amount of cleanser directly on the wet sponge and give your face a light scrub. The texture of the squishy sponge feels wonderful and makes a really good cleansing lather. Rinse the lather off your face and pat dry your skin. Be gentle.
After washing your face, you rinse out the sponge and hang it to dry, squeezing out any excess moisture.

1. First, unwrap the dry Konjac Sponge out of its package.
2. Place it in a bowl
3. Rinse & soak the dry Konjac Sponge with warm/ or hot water for 15 minutes until it fully softened & expanded. Be careful with hot water!
4. While waiting for the sponge to expand, take a warm/hot shower, so that your skin pores open up. That takes a few minutes.
5. Cleanse your face with the water-soaked sponge, or use daily (or every other day) with your favorite cleanser to create a rich lather for an incredibly therapeutic experience!
