I have never used a make up sponge before now. I have read plenty of review o Beauty Blenders but not actually tried any. So when out shopping in Boots I came across this Miracle Compexion Sponge from Real Techniques and thought I'd pick it up and give it a go.
So, how do you use a beauty sponge? To use, simply run under running water - I'd recommend cold water as this makes your base apply smoother - and let the sponge expand with water. Squeeze out water - squeezing it into a clean dry towel to get rid of excess water - and your good to go. A beauty sponge can be used for a number of things. Firstly, to apply and blend your foundation, using a pressing motion onto the skin leaving you with a flawless finish - and this is what I got when using this sponge. And, secondly it can be used for cream blush and finishing powder.
The shape of this sponge is different from any other beauty blenders I have seen. It has been precisely sculpted for use on all facial contours, and features. It has curves and points, rounded smooth surface for easier and amazing application. Using the flat surface for foundation and under eye correctors, pointed end for concealer on those pesky blemishes and rounded end for cream blush and finishing powder. Making it an all round makeup bag must have.
The sponge is soft in texture and even softer when wet. Don't get me wrong it can be used dry but I find it does not use up as much product when wet or drag on the skin.
When you have finished using it can be easily washed with a little facial wash or shower gel and left to dry until next use. I like a full coverage foundation and this gives the results that I like. Amazing product. Another brilliant product from Real Techniques.
