I’ve been on this new facial routine as I’ve been trying to limit the products I’m using because chemicals are in everything. Yea I know….everything is toxic, I’m rolling my eyes too. It’s fucking annoying. Like I said, I change what I can, and do the best I can in life. Don’t half-ass your efforts to go organic while you slather on bottles of cancer.
My skin is combination skin, sometimes it’s dry, sometimes it’s oily depending on the weather. I highly recommend these two items!
- My Konjac Sponge
- Avalon Organics Vitamin C Cleanser
I used to use the facial cleanser alone, but when I got the sponge I put the gel on the sponge and it gave me a great exfoliation without stripping away too much moisture from my face. It can be used alone if you want as well. My face got softer, smoother and a little more even toned. It helps beat my breakouts which are mostly hormone-related, and it is a gentle exfoliate for my acne scars which I’m still trying to find a cream for.

Made from the root of the konjac plant, these squishy sponges are used in your cleansing routine to help you more effectively dislodge, dirt, oil, and blackheads. “Konjac sponges are made from a natural fiber that absorbs a lot of water, so it has a very unique texture, kind of like a thick piece of rubbery felt,” explains Dr. Jessica Wu, a Los Angeles dermatologist and author of Feed Your Face. “It has more texture than a dish sponge, but it’s softer than a loofah and has a finer texture than a washcloth, so it’s safe to use on your face. Your skin will feel very soft and smooth, and makeup will go on better.”
