Benefits of Using a Makeup Blender
Here are some reasons why we love using makeup sponges, and why our Non Latex Makeup Blender is our go-to tool for foundation, concealer, and everything in between!
Multipurpose and Versatile
Generally, makeup blenders are marketed for the use of foundation. But as you’ll quickly find, these cute little sponges truly pack a punch when it comes to their versatility. Aside from foundation, makeup blenders can also be used for concealer, setting powder, contouring, and even applying skincare!
And this can make them especially appealing for those just starting out with makeup, since they can be used in place of a number of brushes.
Beginner Friendly
As mentioned above, makeup blenders are super beginner-friendly–not only because they’re so versatile, but also because they’re foolproof, and don’t need a whole lot of practice to achieve a flawless foundation finish.
Great For All Skin Types
If your skin is on the dry side, or even if you have textured skin (like most individuals), you might feel like every foundation is too cakey for your skin.
However, it might not be your foundation that’s at fault, but rather, your method of application. While most brushes drag product across the skin, makeup blenders lightly push the makeup for an extra-smooth, polished look that looks good on every skin type.
Flawless and Natural Look
While brushes can often lead to streaks, smudges and caking, a makeup blender’s spongy texture helps it absorb any excess product, making it all the easier for you to blend your makeup.
Even better, a damp blender will help give the skin a cake-free, dewy finish in a matter of seconds.
Easy Cleaning
If you’re sick of washing yet another set of makeup brushes each week for foundation alone, we have great news: makeup blenders are easy to clean!
With a bar soap or chlorine-free, alcohol-free dish soap, here’s how to get your makeup blender squeaky clean in minutes:
Saturate your sponge in cold water, and lather it with the soap, making sure to focus on areas with the most staining.
Place the sponge under running water and thoroughly squeeze until the tap runs clear and the sponge is no longer foamy or sudsy when rinsed.
Gently press the sponge on a dry towel and allow it to air dry.
