The Beauty Blender




Hello My Friends!

I just received my Beauty Blender sponge in the mail a few days ago and one word comes to mind...Wow! I love this little pink bubble. Not only is it soft and cute (like a little puppy) it actually WORKS!

Now, in the past I have used rounded, flat, triangle and wedge sponges, powder puffs and multiple brushes and this little pink thing covers better than them all (although my finger still does a really good job with concealer and shadow). Alright, let me give you a break down as to why I like this little thing:

1. Moist and delicious- The BB works best a little damp so the sponge will absorb the water first and not your foundation...much product has been wasted on a thirsty sponge! I find the coverage comes out smooth, even and creamy.

2. Big and beautiful- The bottom of the BB is large and round which makes for very even blending, no streak lines and soft coverage.

3. Quite pointy in parts - The tiny cone shaped top is perfect for little areas like under the eye or blemishes that need some extra help.

4. Multi-tasker- The BB works with liquid, cream and powder foundations, loose and pressed powders and even blush. One sponge can do a lot!

5. Ready for a close up - I find the coverage with this sponge is super soft, even, long lasting, not cakey looking, comfortable and EASY! To get my foundation as well blended as I do with just a tiny bit of effort with the BB takes at least twice as much time with my old sponge or brush.

6. The sponge shouldn't be pink, it should be GREEN- the cleanser I purchased with my BB is eco-friendly (so I feel a little better about soaking the sponge for my face in it and won't kill my puppy if she gets into it!) AND when you are done with your BB they will recycle it for you (cha-ching!).

So, those are some of my reasons! The price for the BB if you are interested varies with how many you are getting and whether or not you are buying the cleanser (which I HIGHLY recommend) but from what I've found online, the prices are consistent everywhere. This may seem like a significant price to some but I think it's really worth it whether its just for personal use or whether you are a professional. The coverage really is striking and the Beauty Blender speaks for itself the first time you use it.

Go try it! You can do it!
