Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a natural Kalymnian sponge better than a synthetic one?
Natural sea sponges from Kalymnos are vastly superior because they contain natural enzymes that inhibit the growth of mold and bacteria. Unlike synthetic sponges which are made of petroleum-based plastics and can harbor irritants, Kalyspongea sponges are hypoallergenic and incredibly durable. They offer a unique, gentle exfoliation that mimics the skin's natural renewal process without causing micro-tears.
How do I care for my natural sea sponge to make it last?
To maximize the lifespan of your sponges, always rinse them thoroughly with cool, clean water after each use and allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Every few weeks, you can soak them in a mixture of warm water and baking soda to restore their structural integrity and refresh their antibacterial properties. Proper maintenance ensures your sustainable beauty tools remain effective and hygienic for months of use.
