AMAZING!

I am completely in love with this sponge. The finish it gives me is amazing and leaves my foundation looking natural and not cakey at all. It blends my foundation and concealer flawlessly. Cannot live without this product and I have no clue as to what I was doing before this sponge came in to my life. It's really easy and quick to use which i loved. Will definitely keep repurchasing this product.

Tips: Use the sponge damp so that it doesn't absorb the product as much as it would with a dry beautyblender.

Not for me Beautyblender!

I was so disappointed in this product. I have used sponges before, and found that I ended up using a lot more foundation with a sponge, than a brush or my fingers, but with all the hype I thought I would give it a go. This was no exception, I found even though I followed the instructions religiously , used it damp. It still soaked up my foundation. I'm not sure if its the foundation I use, which is Estee lauder double wear, but it just didn't leave my skin flawless and airbrushed and a perfect blend. It just doesn't work for me and my foundation and my skin. It was a great disappointment to me, but I know others rave about it, it just didn't live up to the hype for me , especially for the price.

Most Expensive Sponge in the World (probably)

Where was life before the beauty blender. I'll tell you, it was in the two dollar mart where you get those cheap wedges of sponge in a 20 pack for a couple of bucks. The beauty blender whilst expensive will make your foundation or concealer look so natural. It blends out beautifully and the sponge absorbs excess oils in the foundation. I just lightly tap and blend away with the sponge and it leaves me with such a natural finish that it's hard to believe that I'm even wearing makeup. Maintenance of the beauty blender is a bit of a pain in the arse since the pibnk colour kind of washes out and it gets stained so easily. Also because you are using this product wet, it can easily harbour tons of bacteria so you always have to wash and clean it.

Tips: Clean it as often as you can! Have to be careful as to what you smother on your face

So exspensive

Oh my goodness, this is probably the most expensive blender I have ever bought. The only reason I bought this is to see what was such the hype. But honestly, I am so disappointed. I mean I paid $30 for one single sponge, thats kind of a rip off. I mean the only difference is the shape of the sponge which has a pointy edge. It does blend easily but I would rather just use an ordinary sponge. I definitely won't be buying another one.

Beautiful finish for face!

This is expensive for a sponge, I'm not gonna lie. But it is worth it in my opinion. At the moment I am only using this for applying concealer, as the foundation I currently use is a bit too runny for this and it soaks up too much of it and doesn't leave as nice a finish as my foundation brush. BUT I did use this with my last foundation which was more creamier and it worked a charm. Made my face flawless and so natural looking - my skin but better ya know what I mean? It's also nice for when my face is feeling dry.

It's my must have for applying concealer, it blends it out beautifully.

Thought it was overrated I was so wrong

This is by far the best sponge I've ever tried. I have brought just about every kind of makeup sponge out there including ones that are meant to be dupes for the beauty blender. It is just to good to be true yea it costs more but the result you get with it is amazing

Tips: Have to use it wet and wash it often to keep from giving your self break outs

I Love my beauty blender

Yes like many others I herd all the hype of these beauty blenders and curiosity got the best of me and I'm so so glad it did. I took the plunge and purchased the double pack from Sephora and used NZ post to deliver to me in NZ. I purchased the double for $40 USD with intentions to sell the extra to my mum but I couldn't part with the spare! There's no way I am giving up my spare because if anything was to happen to my beauty blender I would be absolutely lost . I love it so much , l use it every day and it makes my foundation look flawless . Since I have had my beauty blender I have not once used my MAC or sigma brushes.

Tips: The sponge works better when moist . Wet the sponge in water before use . Squeeze out the excess water and then put the sponge to your foundation and apply in a stippling motion.

Flawless

I love this product. Makes my foundation go on flawlessly and creates a more dewy looking finish. Although its a bit hard to clean it is really nice. Just worried about bacteria and germys getting to it.

Miracle worker!!

The Original Beauty Blender was raved about for such a long time before i dived in, i was hesitant to spend $38 on a sponge! i had always been a brush kind of gal but something about this made me curious. This sponge gives of the most amazing finish i have ever seen! I like to pair it with any foundation and it adds so much more moisture and radiance to my foundation and gives me such a skin-like finish! It is great to sheer out a heavier foundation and great for layering! this product in my opinion is faultless and definitely worth purchasing! I will forever repurchase <3

Beauty Blender

I feel that the price is a bit steep for a sponge but it does do what it says. My foundation always looks hydrated when applied with the beauty blender. I also find that I use less product and when I bounce the blender on top of my skin, I get such a good coverage.I like that I can get into all the nooks and crannies of my face and it doesn't look patchy. It does get quite dirty but is easy enough to clean...I run it under the tap and squirt some shampoo on it and squeeze till the water runs clean.
