Flawless Flawless Flawless!

I had heard a lot about the BB sponge before I took the plunge and bought it and am happy to say that I absolutely love it! It applies evenly and I find that using the sponge, a little does go a long way! Love it! If you haven't tried it then you have to!

Tips: Rinse before and after use, try and get as much water out of it as possible to avoid getting the stinky sponge smell!

beauty 'blunder'

its awkward and large, you need heaps of makeup on it and it is overall terrible, I brought one online and received it today, why did I bother? I got caught up in the hype and was disappointed with what I got, I don't like it.

The Original Beautyblender

At first I was extremely skeptical about purchasing the Beautyblender, I mean, $38 JUST for a SPONGE??!! It took me the better part of 12mths to decide whether to purchase this. I loved my faithful fake beautyblender, it did the trick but then I had nothing to compare it to. Once I made the leap, my fake sponge ended up in the rubbish bin 5 days later. This sponge is exactly what everyone says it is. It doesn't soak up too much product, blends your foundation in flawlessly and best of all, your foundation doesn't look caked on no matter how much you put on! This is definately worth the (eek) $38. I was lucky enough to pick a couple up for $44. Keep an eye on the specials. An absolute must have in your collection. So easy to use and even easier to clean.

Tips: I clean my beautyblender with warm water and liquid soap and it does the trick perfectly. The top of the beautyblender is perfect for getting into the corners of your eyes and around your nose.

Absolutely look out for the specials however, it is worth it. I've tried these with a few different foundations: Mac Studio Fix, Mac Studio Sculpt and Kat von D. All different consistencies, with the same end result. So happy with this!!

Holy Grail

I was put off by the price at first, so I brought replicas off ebay that sucked up so much product and were such a hassle to clean. Then one day I saw a video by Karrissa Pukas (satnitealrite) and she said she couldnt believe that she had been using replicas when she finally got the beauty blender, that did it for me the next day I was online buying one. I waited and waited for it to arrive, once it arrived I used it straight away, it was absolutely amazing. I now use it everyday to put on my foundation. I have used it with mousse and liquid and it creates a flawless finish everytime.

Blending Beauty

I love the beauty blender took me a while before purchasing it but when I did I regretted not getting it earlier. Using the beauty blender foundation looks like it is airbrushed on your face. Another benefit of using a beauty blender is no brush strokes. If you don't already have one your missing out!!

Tips: For faster application spread out the foundation on your face doesn't have to be perfect and then go in with the beauty blender will still work the same just faster. Also depending on how thick you want your make up you can dampen it or completely soak it in water. The wetter it is the more the thin the layer will be

Must have!!!!

I've been using the beauty blender for almost a month now and it honestly is my holy grail tool. The best part of this sponge is that I can clean it and not have to worry about waiting for it to dry. I use the bottom flat end to apply my foundation which leaves no lines or streaks and I use the pointed end for my concealer :). It's easy to clean and allows me to make the most of my product (if you wet it of course so that the product sits on top of the sponge rather than the sponge absorbing it.

Tips: Wet your beauty blender before using :). When cleaning your beauty blender massage the soap into your sponge for a bit before rising.

I brought my beauty blender from beauty.com using youshop. I'm a sucker for sales I think I got 20% discount when I purchased it so it cost me around $22 nzd. (Can also buy off of urbanoutfitters.com as well)

I was skeptical, but so worth it

This is the most I will ever spend on a sponge, but wow was it worth it. It is less efficient with your product than using a brush or your fingers, as it seems to soak up foundation super fast, but it gives such a flawless finish! No more brush strokes!

thought it would be worth a try and I LOVE

i have only used my blender a couple times but i will never go back. my skin has such a nicer dewy finish blends amazing makes my foundation look perfect every time. i was quite sceptical when i purchased but am happy so far as long as it lasts a decent amount of time i will be happy and re purchasing.

Tips: definitely use damp. with a fresh rinse each time. and wash regularly with the cleaner that can be purchased together.

Really nice, luxe sponge

How can a sponge be luxe? By being the Beauty Blender. There is nothing like this, it is such a fine, soft texture and the alleged dupes out there are not worth your time or money.

This is designed to be used wet so that it doesn't suck up your foundation. I find it does still use more foundation than other application methods would (fingers, brushes), so I don't use this with my really expensive foundation. It's okay though because the finish it gives is so good that it makes cheaper foundations look good!

Tips: 'Bounce' it across the skin for a smooth finish.

Love this. Great makeup without all the mess.

I just recently bought myself one of these beauty blender's as I had aquired some foundations that I was finding weren't going on so well with my brushes. The Beauty blender is absolutely amazing as it completely blends in your make up and doesn't leave streaking, like brushes do.

Like most sponges it does soak up a bit of the product, but not so much that you end up with no makeup on your face.

The nicely pointed end and curved edges make it really easy to apply makeup all over you face, even in those annoying creases around noses and eyes.

I used it to blend in mouse foundations and my concealer and it worked brilliantly. It is also really reasonably priced but if you are looking for something a bit more economical you can always shop for the imitations, which soak up a bit more product but still work.

I would definitely recommend this to all of you who want streak free and well blended makeup.

Tips: Make sure you was you blenders after every use otherwise it will get ruined as well as being unhygienic.
