The Konjac sponge, what are its benefits?
Where does the Konjac sponge come from?
The Konjac sponge is a cleaning accessory made from the plant fibers of the Konjac plant. Konjac is a root of a plant that grows in Asia, including Japan, China, Korea and Indonesia. It is also known as "konjac potato" or "konjac potato".
To make a konjac sponge, the root powder is mixed with water and steamed to form a paste that is then pressed into a sponge shape. The use of konjac sponge dates back centuries in Asia where it has been used for over 1500 years. Konjac sponges were originally used as a natural alternative to towels for cleaning infants because of their softness and gentle texture.
Over time, Konjac sponges have become popular as a gentle way to cleanse and exfoliate the skin, as well as a skin care tool for acne and other skin conditions. The popularity of the Konjac sponge has quickly spread to Asia and other parts of the world due to its gentle and natural properties.
