Black Charcoal Konjac Sponge | White Label Skincare

Konjac root fibres infused with activated charcoal

Step 1: Soak the Sponge

• Before the first use and before each use, soak the sponge in warm water for 3-5 minutes until it becomes soft and expands.
• If the sponge feels stiff or dry, soaking is essential to prevent irritation during use.

Step 2: Squeeze Out Excess Water

• Once the sponge is soft, gently squeeze out excess water. Avoid twisting or wringing the sponge to maintain its shape and integrity.

Step 3: Use on the Skin

• With Cleanser: Apply a small amount of your favourite cleanser directly onto the sponge for enhanced cleansing.
• Without Cleanser: Use the damp sponge on its own for a natural and gentle cleanse.

Step 4: Massage the Skin

• Use the sponge to massage your face in circular motions, focusing on areas prone to oiliness or congestion (e.g., T-zone).
• Be gentle, especially around delicate areas like the eyes.

Step 5: Rinse and Clean

• After use, rinse the sponge thoroughly under running water to remove dirt, oil, and any cleanser residue.
• Gently squeeze out excess water without twisting the sponge.

Step 6: Hang to Dry

• Use the string attached to the sponge to hang it in a cool, well-ventilated area to dry. Avoid storing it in humid or enclosed spaces to prevent bacterial growth.
