Why is the Konjac Sponge black?Updated 8 months ago

Our Konjac Sponges are enriched with activated charcoal, which is why they appear black. Activated charcoal is a highly porous substance known for its excellent ability to absorb impurities, toxins, and excess oils from the skin. This makes it an ideal addition to skincare products, especially for those with oily or acne-prone skin.

The charcoal not only helps cleanse and detoxify the skin, but it also has natural antimicrobial properties. This means it can help inhibit the growth of bacteria, reducing the risk of breakouts and keeping the sponge itself cleaner for longer. The combination of the gentle exfoliation provided by the Konjac sponge and the deep-cleaning action of the activated charcoal creates an effective tool for maintaining clear, healthy skin.

The antimicrobial nature of activated charcoal ensures that the sponge remains a more hygienic option compared to regular sponges, which can harbor bacteria over time. This makes it an excellent choice for daily skincare routines.
