FrançaisSustainably-raised 'silk'
SEa Sponge
Why use Sponges?
Katari 'silk' sea sponges are super soft when wet. Just add a little water, squeeze excess water and you have a smooth and silky soft (hence the name) sponge to wash your little ones, to remove makeup, and cleanse the face. And when the sponge is dry, you can use it to apply a facial masque or gently exfoliate skin.
How are they made?
Sponges naturally grow in the ocean. In Atlantic Ocean, on Florida coasts, sponge farming has become a sustainable trade. Wild sponge harvesting, the way it has been done in the Mediterranean, left sponge population in critical condition and is not sustainable. We love our 'silk' sponges and the fact that they grow on a farm in the ocean and are support the eco-system.

Our sponges are natural and sustainable!
Unlike Mediterranean sponges that come from wild-harvesting of sponges and are over-harvested, making them almost extinct, Florida sponges grow in the Atlantic ocean in a farm-like environment. It is the same as growing in the wild open ocean, but in sustainable and eco-friendly way.
