No Tox Life Luna Charcoal Sponge

Product Description: The sponge is ideal for daily use, especially for those with sensitive and acne-prone skin. This Luna Charcoal Facial Sponge is made in Japan using the roots of the konyakku plant, a food staple for more than 1,500 years in Asian cultures. The vegetable fibers are purified and spun into a puff that is incredibly water-retentive. When used, it holds a water barrier between the sponge and skin which means it cleanses without scratching or irritating.

Ingredients/Materials: Konyakku plant root infused with charcoal

Use + Care: For the first use, soak the sponge in warm water for 10-15 minutes until it puffs up and rehydrates. It will expand about 50% and get soft and squishy like sponge cake. Soak briefly in warm water to rehydrate before daily use. To exfoliate, wet the sponge and make a small lather with your favorite facial bar or cleanser. Rub in circular motions to remove dirt from the pores without scratching the skin. After each use, rinse out the sponge and gently press it between your palms to remove excess water and hang it to dry.

After 3 months, sanitize the sponge or replace it. If you see mold or bacteria growth, don’t use the sponge. Some customers have boiled it in water to sterilize it, or saturated it in water and microwaved for 20 seconds. If you continue to squeeze and hang it to fully dry between uses, it could last for up to 6 months. If it smells funny, becomes discolored, or looks off, throw it away and do not continue using it. It is a natural product and can grow mold or bacteria if not properly handled.
