Review: PureSOL Konjac Sponge with added Bamboo Charcoal

I received this fabulous facial sponge from pureSOL to review, and I only wish I'd heard about it sooner! It's the strangest looking thing - a black shrink-wrapped disk that comes in a cute little eco-friendly box. It also arrives with a little suction-cup hook to hang in your bathroom. That's where your sponge will hang to dry between uses!

Here are some of the wonderful things I've learned about this sponge:

Konjac is a moisture rich plant fibre which is by nature alkaline, and thus balances the acidity of the skin's impurities and oils. The unique net-like structure of the sponge gently massages the skin, breaks down dirt, stimulates blood flow and new growth of skin cells. This leaves the skin extremely clean and refreshed!

pureSOL Konjac Sponge is unbelievably soft and excellent for all skin types! It is made of 100% pure vegetable fiber and processed without any coloring or additives, great for hypersensitive skin!

IMPROVES SKIN TEXTURE: pureSOL Konjac Facial Sponge gently exfoliates while deep cleansing and removing any toxins and impurities, leaving you with a radiant complexion. It is extremely soft and gentle for everyday skin care. Great for all skin types.

BRIGHTER LOOKING SKIN: The natural woven fibers of the sponge gently massage the skin and stimulate blood flow. It detoxifies and encourages skin renewal while balancing the skins pH, leaving your skin extremely clean and refreshed!

PREVENTS SPOTS, BLACKHEADS AND BREAKOUTS: The added BAMBOO CHARCOAL contains activated carbon and essential minerals to deeply cleanse and absorb excess sebum, toxins and other harmful chemicals from your skin. You will see your pores getting smaller, tightening and brightening your skin.

100% NATURAL AND ECO-FRIENDLY: Why compromise your health with products that contain harsh chemicals and additives on your skin? pureSOL Konjac Sponge is completely natural, eco-friendly and free of parabens, sulphates & chemicals. It is biodegrade, cruelty free and vegan. After use, you can compost the sponge and feel good about the environment! You can even add it to your flower pot! At pureSOL our packaging is 90% compostable.

Here's what my sponge looks like after I soak it in water for a minute:

So I've been using this sponge for about a month, and I definitely see a difference in my skin.  It looks brighter, and feels so clean after using the sponge each night.  I don't even use a cleanser these days, just a good "scrubbing" with the sponge and water before bedtime.  My skin's never looked better!  Yes, I received one free in order to review it, but I'll be purchasing more for future use! This is the greatest addition to my skincare regimen! So thankful to have found out about pureSOL's konjac sponges!

The pureSol Konjac sponge is available on Amazon.  You can also learn more by visiting the company's  Facebook.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

BumLuv Cloth Diapers

Hope y'all are enjoying this holiday weekend.  I have another giveaway for you ~ this one is FUN! If you've got little ones in your life, you'll love it!

If I say cloth diapers, do you get a mental image of white cloth diapers, big bulky pins, and stinky diaper pails? I used to think that too, until my friend Gaye & her daughter Elysabeth showed me the awesome cloth diapers Elysabeth sells through her company BumLuv Cloth Diapers.   Elysabeth is a mom of two, and both her kids use these adorable cloth diapers.  I had no idea how far cloth diapering had come in the last 20 years.  These are size adjustable so you don't have to buy them for every age.  They grow with your baby!

Here's some info from Elysabeth about why you should give cloth diapers a try:

WHY CLOTH DIAPER?

•  Better for the Environment
  • Disposable diapers are the 3rd largest one-time-use item in our garbage.
  • Disposable diapers take over 300 years to decompose in our landfills. Even “Eco-Friendly” composting diapers can’t break down in our air-tight trash piles
• Better for Baby
  • Cloth diapered babies have less diaper rash
  • Many disposable diapers contain harmful chemicals, such as Sodium Polyacrylate, which was banned from tampon use for causing Toxic Shock Syndrome.
• Better for your Wallet
  • Over the course of two years, your family could save over $2,000 by switching to cloth. You can save even more if you also use cloth wipes.
• It’s So Easy
  • Wash once on cold, once on hot. Tumble dry the inserts and wipes, Hang the pockets to dry. Done!
• They are Adorable!
• BumLuv diapers come in lots of colors and prints, sure to complement any outfit or personality!

Now lets take a look at some of my favorites!

Antique Owl 

& 

Camo 

Autism Awareness Diaper 

These are really easy to care for, and if you can save that much money over two years, why wouldn't you?! If I still had little ones I would totally be using these! Now I'll just have to wait for grandbabies.  I think I need to buy some to put away until that day comes! 

Here is sizing info on BumLuv diapers:

One size diapers fit babies/toddlers appx 8 lbs all the way to potty training! (appx 40 lbs)
