Sustainable Shaving: Are Natural Sponges Worth the Switch?
I've recently stumbled across this concept of using a Konjac sponge for shaving, which boasts a closer shave and a foamy lather. It's also touted as being vegan and cruelty-free. However, I've read that these sponges have a shorter lifespan, lasting only 1 to 3 months. I'm keen on reducing waste and my environmental footprint, and I’m curious about the actual effectiveness and sustainability of these natural shaving alternatives compared to synthetic options. Does anyone have experience with natural sponges like Konjac for shaving? Are they genuinely superior to synthetic brushes or more traditional methods? Moreover, what's the environmental impact of using these natural products versus their synthetic counterparts over time?
