I got this super cute, pink, egg-shaped reusable makeup sponge called Beauty Blender as a birthday gift from my ex-officemates Faline & Lalaine last March and I've been using it religiously since then. A lot of MUAs have claimed that this does a better job over brushes. Before owning this, I used to only use my fingers to spread liquid foundation over my face. Also, prior to getting this, I was already familiar with it as I've seen it online and at PCX early this year, so it was great joy when I found out they got me this as a present. :D
The Beauty Blender promises to give you an air-brush effect by using light, bouncing motions on your face, also called stippling in the beauty world, to give you the perfect, flawless finish. I can personally attest to this, and I highly recommend it to those who are having a hard time achieving that natural, well-balanced application of foundation. You can use the big, rounded end all over your face, while the slightly pointed end can be used in hard to reach, and sensitive areas like the sides of your nose and under your eyes. Just make sure you wash it and keep it dry after every use to prevent mold formation.
The only downside that I see with this product is its price. Suggested product life is only 3 to 6 months the longest for hygienic purposes given that it's a sponge which can easily breed bacteria even with utmost care.
Here in the Philippines, you can get yours at PCX branches. I am still not sure where else you can get it. It is sold in single packs, or bundled with a bottle of the cleanser. The single pack currently retails at around Php 1,000+.
