Konjac Sponge Set, 3 Pack Exfoliating Facial Sponges - Hemisphere Shape - Pure Konjac Glucomannan with Activated Bamboo Charcoal, Green Tea, Natural White - Premium Skin Care

UPDATE: I've never seen better customer service in my whole LIFE! I originally gave two stars but after a wonderful representative contacted me and gave me a new set of sponges (without me even asking!!) I can now give it 5 stars! The new sponges are perfect no smell at all <3. Thank you Beauty Shelf!Original review:Great sponges that are nice and soft. Buttttt they smell so bad I can't use them. I stopped using them because the smell was actually keeping me awake at night and my boyfriend hated it too. The smell didn't go away and would linger on my face even after using a scented moisturizer or washing my face with water. I tried using the sponges several times but no matter what they continued to smell like chunks of old swimming pool noodles (sort of a chlorine smell)! 🙁 Too bad though. Cute box.

These are great sponges! They expand nicely and are quite gentle and pretty. I've used them mostly for washing my face as I have icthyosis and need extra exfoliation help. Curology actually recommended them to me and it was a good call. They're more gentle than many other products I've used, but I've found those actually increase the number of closed comedones I have. These seems to be a nice balance.

This is the first time I have tried the konjac sponges after recommendations from various blogs, due to their effectiveness at cleaning while providing gentle exfoliation.I actually really like using the sponges for daily cleansing. I don't find the exfoliation aspect to be harsh whatsoever and feel comfortable with using this in both the morning and the evening. I will sometimes even just use one on my face with water after taking a nap/resting, just to feel refreshed.I decided to get the 'variety' pack to see if there was truly a difference. After using the three types, I honestly can't say I have seen or felt any differences in how they perform. The exfoliation level and treatment on the skin seem the same, which is why I am giving this 4 stars instead of 5, as it advertised different effects from the three sponges.The packaging I received from my seller (Pegasus Guild) was very enjoyable and made it a lot more fun to open - I did appreciate that a lot, as it's always nice to have a little extra enjoyment when treating yourself to a new product.

I haven't tried the green one yet and I gave my mom the white one (she loves it), but I am enamored with the black one. I have sensitive skin and I use it at night without any face wash and my skin hasn't looked this good since before puberty smacked the heck out of me back in the day. All the little black spots on the tip of my nose and chin were gone in about a week and the dry, bumpy skin right next to my nose is smooth and clear. I use face wash in the morning, but that's because of the quality of my mascara--this sponge doesn't stand a chance against it without soap unfortunately. If I could give up wearing makeup, I wouldn't need to buy face wash ever again. I highly recommend this sponge if you've tried everything and your skin tone is still uneven, you have blackheads, or even if you just want a better way to clean your face. It's wonderful!

I really liked the sponges, They are a great size and very soft on my skin, however, the smell is absolutely horrible! I used the black sponge first so I assumed that the smell was just associated with that one alone but I was wrong, they all smell horrible. They do a great job cleaning my skin and I really want to use them but I can't get around the smell. If they could fix that, this would be my number one choice for washing my face.

First let me say it was a heaven send. There was a sponge for each skin concern in our house. The White one was used with no soap, I was told it felt great on their skin and they loved how it felt afterwards. The Black one was used with medicated facial cleanser, normally drying in some areas. Their skin looked healthy afterwards, not shiny, not dry. Skin was very soft. Now Green, I decided to use it cleanser, did not pat dry. There was no pulling feeling, no dryness, no skin turning white because of dryness. I felt like I did not need any moisturizer, but my vanity got the best of me and I put some 10 minutes later. My skin feels so good I felt like it should be kissed, but since there was no one who would do it, I blew myself one.

I'm very disappointed. I wanted to get the makanai type from Japan. Those sponges really feel like a facial each time I use them. These are nothing in comparison. Sorry to say so but this is my experience.

I love these sponges! I get rough dry patches on my face because I just moved to the desert and my skin is still adjusting. I use the charcoal one to tame my breakouts, then the green tea for calming the skin, and once everything is back to normal, I use the white sponge. This 3 pack is great if you want to try the sponges for the first time, but trust me, you'll never use a wash cloth again after this! I should also mention that I don't use the sponges with water - I use grapeseed oil to cleanse and witch hazel to tone. I rinse them in white vinegar and let them dry. I don't trust the water in my new area yet (hard water + sensitive skin = nightmare) but these work great with any routine! O and expect and little bit of irritation or "purging" when you first start using them - it breaks down the dirt and allows the pores to purge it. Also, don't put your regular cleanser on the sponge until you know how your skin will react. Give it 7 to 10 days. But coming from someone who has "tried everything", I think you'll love these! I do! Also, I won't be making another amazon purchase again, I'll buy these direct from the seller.
