Konjac Sponges Review

I've never been one to get overly excited over bath sponges apart from a few days ago when the postman delivered these two beautiful Konjac sponges*. These sponges came from Konjac Sponge Company that specialise in natural bath sponges. For those who have never heard of Konjac before ( I hadn't until the other day), it a plant that derives from Asia and according to the website 'it can be found growing wild at very high altitudes.' The Konjac - which is actually a potato plant is made of 97% water, is low in calories and rich in minerals. The natural PH neutral alkaline of Konjac leaves the skin feel soft and balanced.

For over 1,500 years the Konnyaku has been used in traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean medicine and diets and the Konjac sponge was originally designed to soothe babies skin. Now the Konjac Sponge Company are bringing this hidden gem to the masses by stocking them on a worldwide website for all to buy. The Konjac sponges are made from 100% natural vegetable fires, packed with minerals and antioxidants and they're also cruelty free.As well as being kind to the skin, the products are environmentally safe and naturally sustainable as well as 100% biodegradable. I was sent these two sponges to review here on Forever Miss Vanity and admittedly I wasn't expecting much, but having used these sponges each and every time I have been for a bath these last few weeks, I have been shocked by the quality and how soft they feel on the skin.

The Konjac sponges are initially quite hard as you would expect from a natural sponge, but once they reach the water, they soak up all the liquid and gently glide onto your skin feeling as soft as silk. The pink clay heart sponge is so soft on the skin that is it perfect those with any sensitivities or for those who are suffering from skin problems or even sunburn. The natural fibre face sponge  is one of the websites best selling sponges and helps deep cleanse the face and gently exfoliate the skin. The vegetable fibres hidden within the product helps to stimulate blood flow and 'promote skin cell renewal.' Both my partner and I have fallen in love with these sponges and use them regularly in our bath times, to the point I'm even contemplating buying him the gentleman's sponge so that he doesn't steal mine. The sponges are a delight to use throughout the day and have the most beautiful designs that will sit well with any bathroom. I have nothing, but praise for the Konjac Sponge Company.

Have you tried any of these sponges before?
