The Tiny Tool For Flawless Skin

by Nicky Deam

Sponges, turns out they aren’t just for dishes. Thanks to the Konjac root, the old-school tool has received a makeover and is a surprisingly gentle and effective way of cleansing your skin daily. Instead of exfoliators and brushes, opt for one of these all-natural spheres. The fibers unclog pores, slough off dead skin cells and cleanse more thoroughly than facewash alone. Simply pair with your regular cleanser and enjoy clearer, brighter skin!
