Purito Jeju Volcanic Scoria Konjac Sponge. After 1 Week…

I’ve used the Purito Jeju Volcanic Scoria Konjac Sponge for a week. I think that’s more than enough time to see if I like the product or not, right? It’s a spongggeeeee! The konjac sponge feels gentle on the skin and helps to remove dead skin without being harsh. It works very well to remove flakes after a few days of rest from doing a chemical peel. This saved my skin from appearing dry and rough (the best it could). But, I’m not sure if I’m going to purchase it again any time soon. It works to remove flaky skin when skin is feeling more sensitive than usual. The issue is keeping the sponge clean. I have acne-prone skin, and I have to make sure my tools are completely clean after each use. Cleaning this sponge after each use was such a hassle. It’s porous and a great place for bacteria to grow. It’s something I have to be very careful with. I don’t think this konjac sponge is a bad product. I like it. It’s just difficult to maintain long term. It was nice to try it out though. There’s a possible chance I might even pick another one up in the future. I don’t know. haha. After this one, I’ll have to pass for the time being. I’ve moved onto silicone exfoliators. <<< Check it out! 🙂

Review:

I’ve had these facial wipes for a while. Finally getting around to reviewing them. I also had the Moisture Rehab Rose & Coconut Makeup Removing Wipes from Pacifica (not pictured, used them all and tossed them out). The Hemp wipes smell like lavender. I’m not a huge fan of lavender oil. I just don’t like the smell that much. Pacifica products tend to be heavily fragranced. I can only handle their hair care products, since I’m OK with hair products being fragranced. These facial wipes are OK (besides the fragrance). It removes makeup. I didn’t think it cleaned my skin well, since I have oily skin. I can still feel residue on my skin afterwards. This face wipe wasn’t too drying or moisturizing. It didn’t add any benefits to my skin. I haven’t noticed any. I think that’s why I haven’t finished them. It’s taking me forever to finish them too.

So the Moisture Rehab Rose & Coconut is similar to the Hemp (from what I remember), but it’s more hydrating (obviously, lol). These facial wipes weren’t too bad either. It removes makeup. Just like the Hemp, it didn’t leave my skin feeling clean. I really do think they’re just your typical face wipes. The final question is, am I going to buy them again? Probably not. The reason why is because I’m not that into facial wipes. I don’t use them as a facial cleanser. Just to remove my makeup. But, I prefer to use an oil-based cleanser to remove my makeup and follow up with a water-based facial cleanser. If I were stuck in a situation where I didn’t have a proper facial cleanser to wash my face, I’ll go for them, since they are convenient and somewhat remove gunk from my skin. As for day-to-day basic cleansing, I’ll pass.
