In the Limelight: ReveN Bath M Konjac Volcanic Stone Facial Sponge Product Review

How was your Halloween and long weekend, everyone? It has been a month since I last updated my blog. I thought I was already on my way back to regular blogging but I needed time to adjust to my new role in the organization I'm working at. And this blogging burn out has been going on for quite some time now. Nevertheless, I felt the need to not totally let this blog go so I'm back with a product review for ReveN Bath M Konjac Volcanic Stone Facial Sponge. I received this last August from Updated Trends and decided against reviewing it right away until I have fully tested whether it is effective or not and here it is.

*Made from 100% pure vegetable fiber, using the world most famous Jeju in Korea (registered as UNESCO World Heritage Site). Excellent for all skin types even those with hypersensitive skin.

Better for your skin, better on the environment and better for babies too!

What I like:

• Initially, I thought this was good for "oily skin" but as it turns out, this is for those with sensitive skin. Turns out to work just fine because lately, my combination-oily skin has been experiencing hypersensitivity these past few months and most products made for oily skin proved to be a little harsh for me. This one is gentle enough and does not strip the moisture off my face.
• Paired with Cetaphil, this does not cause any irritation to my skin, leaving it soft and supple after cleansing.
• This gently exfoliates my skin and it looks radiant each time.
• Does not cause any allergic reaction to my face.
• I like that it is natural and biodegradable. See, the word "natural" sometimes make me take a step back before putting it anywhere near my face due to my less than pleasant experiences with such products but this did a fab job.
• One sponge is good for 3-4 months use. Mine is 3 months and a half old and is still usable.
• Locally available online for only Php 365.

What I don't like:

• I made the mistake of squeezing the water out of it just a little too much and the pointed part just literally crumbled on my hand. Now I cannot use that part and that happens to be my fave because the shape is just right for my nose. So please do not make the same mistake that I did. :(

Overall rating: 4.5/5

Will I buy again? Yes though I will try a different one. It'll turn 4 months by mid-November and I am definitely going to try the charcoal one which is for oily skin. I hope it won't be too harsh for my skin though.

Other: When I first opened it, I noticed that the sponge was damp. I don't know what to make of it but it was a bit weird but it does not have any bad smell at all. When dry, it can be really hard that its like a very lightweight stone.

Full size when damp.

Have you tried konjac sponges? How do you find it?

Have a great weekend, guys and gals! :)
