Before initial use, soak sponge in warm water for 10-15 minutes until it puffs up and rehydrates. It expands by about 50% and will be squishy.
To use, rinse sponge under warm water and apply soap. Rub gently on face and/or body to exfoliate and cleanse.
After each use, rinse out the sponge and gently press between palms to remove excess water. Hang up to dry between uses, with the included string hanger. Never wring out the sponge as this might damage or alter its shape. Replace after 3 to 6 months.
