Konjac Baby Sponge For Delicate, Sensitive & Eczema Prone Skin

4 x Payment of $3.24 with or with zip money logo

This KUU Konjac baby sponge is ideal for every new baby and child. In Japan the Konjac (Konnyoku) sponge has been used on their delicate skins for over a century, and now itā€™s finally hit Australia!! The KUU Konjac baby sponge pH balanced, which means it is ideal on delicate baby skin. A new baby has still hasn't all the protection he or she needs yet, and a babyā€™s skin can absorb 5 times more chemicals and pollutants than ours, as adults. As the sponge can hold up to 10 times its weight in water, bath time is easy. By filling the sponge and gently squeezing over babyā€™s hair will make for a gentle and delicate hair shampoo. If you do choose to still use baby soap/shampoo, then please note, you will need to use far less - again much better for babyā€™s delicate skin, and better for the environment. In fact, the sponge was originally created for babies! Then it was discovered how great the konjac sponge is for adults! The KUU Konjac sponge can be used on its own or with your favourite cleanser. But remember just a tiny amount goes a long way as the sponge delivers more lather than usual. Better for your skin, better for the environment and your pocket! Before use, rinse and hydrate your konjac sponge in warm water. Squeeze out any excess water and gently cleanse skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it suitable for anyone?

This is the beauty of the sponge, it's excellent for all skin types and especially for infants. 

Is it suitable for a newborn?

Yes, absolutely. The sponge was first developed for babies. No irritants, and no need for any other cleansing solution, shampoo or body wash for baby unless you really want! In fact even if you do decide you want to use a bath wash, you should use a smaller amount than usual as the sponge will give you more lava than expected.

How often should I use my sponge?

Every day. Make the sponge your part of your daily regime. Simply use the sponge for your morning and evening wash, 
or whenever you would wash or cleanse your face.

How long will the sponge last?

The average is about 3 months, but that depends on use and care. Hang to dry using the string attached to each sponge, rinse everytime its used and don't wring it, and then hang to dry outside of the shower cubicle, in a well ventilated area if possible. A damp environment will shorten its lifespan which allows this natural product to start to decompose!

Can I steralise the sponge?

Yes, feel free to boil the sponge for about 3-4 minutes in a pan of water. Or place in a microwave in a bowl of warm water for about 2 minutes. Ideal for beauty therapists who want to clean and steralise the sponge for their clients.
