I was keen to try this product but have to say I was a little disappointed, I definitely prefer to use a brush as it blends better and gives me more even coverage. I found the sponge difficult to keep clean and to store. Don’t keep it in your makeup bag it’ll make a mess. It needs to be kept in separate container.

Amazing but pricey
I love my beauty blender. I find it works well for my skin type, easy to use and makes my foundation look flawless (best used damp). I do find it to be a bit pricey.
Tips: Ensure you are cleaning and drying it regularly.

Not for me
After years of hearing about these I finally brought one. After watching some you tube videos to work it how to use it I found it difficult to blend with and much prefer to use brushes. I just could not get the blending in correct. I will give it a chance and keep trying as so many get great results. If your a rookie to makeup I would recommend some assistance on how to use correctly.
Tips: Make sure to clean regularly. Use slightly damp as recommended.

Great for base products
I use one of these everyday for my makeup. It’s great for foundation and concealer. I do have to say however, I found way cheaper beauty blenders that work just as well for a more affordable price.

Easy application!
I love this one, I use it when I apply my liquid foundation and it leaves my skin looking so smooth and the foundation is applied so much easier. It allows me to build on my foundation easily with my current foundation for example if I'm going for a heavy make up look or a light look.
Tips: Wet the blender slightly before applying liquid foundation! It makes your skin look so much smoother. Its really important to clean the blender often, if I don't I get random pimples.

Must have!
If you wear foundation/concealer then a beauty sponge is a must! So easy to blend! I haven’t gone back to a brush since!
Tips: I find it easier to work with the product once I have wet the sponge! Just under the tap and squeeze the sponge a few times - game changer! Super easy to wash too - I normally add soap to wash it with.

Great Product
Both dry and wet the beauty blender has great application of products both from foundation concealer, to powder to blush/bronzer. If you can afford this then it is an excellent tool to apply multiple types of makeup - especially if you are using cream products. However, there are sponges that do a very similar job for a lower price point, so if I were to recommend a sponge to a friend the price may put it lower on the list for this reason.
Tips: If you are wanting fuller coverage for your foundation/concealer or cream products use the sponge dry.

Not Sold on it.
I brought this sponge after I read the reviews however after several attempts I still couldn't make it work. I found by applying my foundation first by finger and using the sponge to press in worked better. I also felt I used way to much foundation when using the sponge.

This is a great tool for blending foundation if used properly (make sure it’s damp.) The original is definitely the best - I’ve tried cheaper imitations which don’t work nearly as well. One thing I would say is that it’s not easy to store and keep clean at the same time. Best to keep the plastic container that it comes in for storage.
Tips: I suggest cleaning it regularly.
