Blending Sponges & Beauty Sponges
Makeup blenders and sponges are an alternative to using your fingers or a brush when you're applying makeup. These spongy tools are lightweight and can help you get an airbrushed finish without caking or streaking. You can use blenders and sponges with a wide variety of products including concealer , foundation, highlighters, and bronzers. The key to using them successfully is in the shape and the technique.
How To Use Makeup Sponges
If you haven't used makeup blenders and sponges before, it's extremely easy to incorporate them into your routine. However, using them properly is the key to achieving that flawless airbrushed look you're aiming for. Follow these steps so you can use your blender or sponge every day.
Start by running your blender or sponge under the faucet until it is soaked all the way through. Getting these tools wet is the key to a successful application.
Once it's wet, gently squeeze the excess water out. Ultimately, you want your blender or sponge to be moist and not soaked all the way through.
Apply a few drops of foundation to your makeup blender. If you're using dry products, dip the blender or sponge into the pan until you have the amount of product you need.
Using a "bouncing" motion, gently pat the blender onto your skin and across your face. You can do this as a spot application for highlighters or blush instead of all over like you would with foundation.
Avoid dragging the blender across your face or it could end up making your foundation and other products look streaky. Just continue bouncing it repeatedly until everything blends in.
When you're done, wash your blenders and sponges under the faucet with a tiny bit of soap and warm water, then squeeze out the excess water and store it for future use.

What Kind Of Makeup Sponge Is Best?

Do You Wet A Makeup Sponge Before You Use It?
You should wet a makeup sponge before you use it so that it expands. When you add water to a blender or makeup sponge, it also provides a much smoother application to the skin. Wet your makeup sponge under running water until it's completely absorbed, then gently wring it out before applying makeup to it. The sponge should be damp and not completely soaking wet, so always remember to wring out excess water before you start applying your foundation and other makeup products. Try the e.l.f Total Face Sponge and get it slightly damp, then use it to gently glide your foundation and concealer onto your face.
How Many Times Should You Use A Makeup Sponge?
Your makeup sponge is one of the best beauty tools in your arsenal, but it won't last forever. In general, a quality makeup sponge should last between three and six months. Always clean your sponge after each use to extend its lifespan and to prevent bacteria from growing on it. Use a beauty sponge or makeup brush cleaner, then allow it to dry thoroughly in between uses. Store the sponge in a covered container to protect it. Swap your sponge with a new one every few months for the best results.
