Weve featured it many times in the pages of our magazine.
And I evenprofessed my lovefor the sponge on social media after being a loyal customer since 2017!
The reason these sponges in particular are so special?
Skura Style
(Because honestly, no one replaces their spongewhen they should!)
How do celebrities really clean?!
Mendes explains, Fun fact, when I was pregnant, I always wanted to be at the sink.
I would plead with people to let me do them.
I find it relaxing.
Then the pandemic hit, dishes were nonstop, next level.
Andgerms became such a focus.
So, I went looking for a better sponge, discovered Skura and became a customer.
Then, finally, I met them and found my sponge soul sisters.
The rest is dish-story.
Sorry, I had to.
So yeah, ick.
She explains, I dont love a sink full of dishesI mean, who does?
But you could tell what state of mind Im in by the state of my sink.
I always say a clean sink is a clear mind.
Mendes says she always finds time to wash her dishes, evenwith two small children.
I find doing the dishes meditative.
I find waking up to a clean kitchen so uplifting and joyful.
When I read about it, I said, Wha???
‘People need to know this!
The microbiologists who did the study recommend throwing your sponge out every 1 to 2 weeks.
She prefers to skip them with her Skura sponges since they rinse clean and squeeze dry quickly.
(She does add that she moisturizes like hell afterward.)
And I totally get thatIm in camp no-gloves, as well.
She relies on a simple dish, or sometimes she just leaves it straight on the counter.
Because the sponge rinses totally dry, it doesnt sit in a messy puddle.
And since its so damn pretty, I leave mine out, she explains.
