Makeup Sponge

Beautyblender makeup sponge

beautyblender was designed to apply and blend any cream or liquid makeup product onto the skin for a smooth, poreless finish. It’s known for its ‘exclusive aqua-activated foam’ and its sphere shape that can reach almost every contour on your face.

How to use this makeup sponge: Get the sponge wet, squeeze excess water and then blend. It’s that easy!

When to use this makeup sponge: Use to apply foundation, concealer, beauty balms (more commonly known as bb creams), serums and moisturizers.

The good: The beautyblender is known for the flawless, poreless finish it can provide.  If you hate the tacky feeling of foundation all of your fingers, the beautyblender is a great applicator.

The bad: It can absorb a lot of your precious makeup when used dry. While touted as being able to, the sphere shape actually doesn’t reach every facial contour.

Pretty Pro tip: The beautyblender can be used wet or dry, but the Pretty Pros prefer dry for initial application and wet to bounce and blend makeup into the skin.
