SILK FACIAL SEA SPONGE - CARIBBEAN
SILK FACIAL SEA SPONGE - CARIBBEAN
Facial sea sponges help cleanse, rejuvenate, and contain natural minerals which are beneficial for the skin, and are absolutely perfect for gently exfoliating and pampering the skin on a daily basis. Silk sponges are the most luxurious sponges for facial care ~ they are the softest, densest, and have the finest pores of any sponge, and they don't irritate, pull, or tear the skin like a washcloth, luffa, and other materials can.
Perfect for gently cleansing, exfoliating, and pampering skin on a daily basis. These sea sponges from the Caribbean are very soft, but have more texture and are more exfoliating than our silk sponges from the Philippines or Mediterranean. They are also more durable than silk sponges from the Philippines. Suitable for all skin types, including those with sensitive and mature skin types.
Responsibly harvested and a naturally renewable resource, these sponges are hand-cut by divers to ensure that enough of the base remains intact so that the sponge can regrow. Studies show that areas harvested actually increase the population density of sponges. Sponges are biodegradable, and can be added to the compost once they've reached the end of their life-cycle.
Silk sponges form naturally (not by machines!) and as a result, their shapes and sizes are unique and irregular. We offer our Caribbean silk sea sponges in several sizes, and as either Premium (whole and uncut, in their original form) or Cut. Premium quality sponges are available in Small which measure approximately 2" in length, or Regular which are approximately 2.5-3" in length. Cut sponges are available in several sizes including 1.5" (these are quite small), 2-3", or 3-4". Sizes and shapes naturally vary.
Premium sponges are whole sponges left intact (the only cut is on the bottom where it was harvested from its base so that the sponge can regrow). They may have been shaped and cut slightly by divers, but are still in their original, natural form. These sponges are superior in quality when compared to cut versions, and are overall more durable. Cut sponges are also of good quality and they are the same type of sponge, but they have been cut to their size and form, and are available at a lower price point. If you're looking for the highest quality option available, then Premium Regular is the best choice.
Listing is for one Caribbean sea sponge (unless otherwise denoted).
How to use: saturate thoroughly with cold water, and lightly apply using circular motions. If desired, add a small amount of facial wash. After using, rinse out the sponge completely with cold water, squeezing all excess water out (do not wring or twist as that can damage and break the fibers), and allow to air dry naturally.
*Sponges are traditionally measured when wet.
* Sponges in photos are of our 2.5-3" Premium Regular Caribbean Silk Sea Sponges.
Note: there may be sand, small pebbles, or small pieces of seaweed in your sponge when you receive it due to the natural manner of this product. If you do, simply saturate with water and rinse them out.
Silk sponge care: Every few weeks, cleanse and disinfect by soaking in one of these solutions for two hours: 10% white vinegar with water, or 5% hydrogen peroxide with water for two hours. then rinse completely and air dry. Do not twist or pull the sponge, as this may damage the fibers and tear it. After each use, allow sponge to dry completely. With proper care, silk sponges can last for months.

I am on an acne healing journey with all natural products. I needed something natural and very gently to exfoliate. In the am i use this sponge just with water to help to gently exfoliate. My acne is clearing up. I am also using the green tea hydrasol twice daily. I love how soothing this feels and my skin feels so smooth after.
Very soft and the perfect size. Love the bamboo holder as well.
