Konjac Face Sponge

布小熊

I recently go a Konjac aka Konnyaku Sponge from the EPIC Expo. I am pretty happy with the result of using it. It looks like a dry hard sponge in the package. Once it's soaked in warm water for a few mins, it becomes very soft and bouncy. Like a slice of "bak tong go"!

I used it with a little bit of foaming facial cleaner and I feel my skin smoother and cleaner only after 1 use....
I don't usually do makeup skin care review ... so I don't know the best way to explain...
I just found this too good to be true and try it out for a few more days. I still like it. And my bf started to use his and found blackhead going a bit away (not totally gone la) and his skin feels less oily.

I read more about this online and I think I will stick to it for now.
It exfoliates but didn't feel rough or scretchy at all. And it's natural and even good for baby and sensitive skins (as said in the package).
The sponge last 2 to a few months.

Yes. It can be used without cleaner and just water. I use sun block daily so I feel better to use facial cleaner in addition.

They don't have a retail store yet. But I can get it by calling them. Or you can find other supplier for Konjac sponge online.
If you want to get them throught me, you can PM me. Or I can give you their contact information via PM as well.

The chinese name is
蒟蒻潔膚綿 or 蒟蒻潔顏球 or 魔芋海绵.
I am sure these are cheaper in Asia. I think I saw some review of ppl buying it from Watson's in HK.

Do you want the face sponge or the body sponge? They are the same material just different shape and size.

and btw, I talked to the guy and $5 and $6 is the EPIC Expo price. And since I bought from them at the Expo, he is giving them to me for the same price.
So they will prob adjust the price after.
And btw... I prob won't "take more orders". but you are welcome to get his contact from me.
