I'm very late to the BeautyBlender party, and have tried various knock-off sponges and foam applicators. With those knock-offs, I absolutely couldn't see why everyone was making such a fuss about the BeautyBlender. But they were (and are) still making a fuss, so I thought I'd buy the real thing and find out for myself.The BeautyBlender sponge, when it arrived, was much smaller than I'd expected (dry), but plumped up beautifully after a quick soak in some warm water. Even after being squeezed as dry as possible, this soaking still stops the sponge from sucking up too much expensive make-up instead of putting it on your skin, where it belongs.It's taken me a little while to get use to the patting/bouncing technique,

I've been using the BeautyBlender for about two months now, as I wanted to be able to comment on its many uses. Starting with USING IT FOR APPLYING LIQUID FOUNDATION - it gives a beautiful, airbrushed look. However, the max you can get is a medium coverage and a downside is that the BeautyBlender absorbs A LOT of product. This can be especially annoying if you use high-end makeup. I'd say, on average, when I apply my foundation with a stippling or a kabuki brush, I need about three squirts of product. When I am using the BeautyBlender I need about four squirts to achieve the same medium coverage look. In terms of BLENDING OUT (UNDER-EYE) CONCEALER - it's a superb tool.

So I had seen all the youtube videos and recommendations for this product online but I had always thought “how good can it really be?”. I mean £12 odd is sort of expensive for what is essentially a sponge. My advice is, take the plunge, shell out the cash and you wont be disappointed. What I believe sets it apart from other similar products is the texture of the sponge. I have tried and have owned hundreds of different make up sponges by other brands, in various shapes and sizes. This is the softest, most delicate sponge in the world, and it makes putting your foundation on SO easy! Your product will go further, not only that but you can use it to apply powder, liquid foundation, eyeshadow,

Before I bought it I watched a number of youtube videos about it but I was still not very convinced about it. I thought I would give it a go anyway. I am completely stunned with it! I couldn't believe that a sponge could feel like that. It has a fantastic patented material which absorbs so much water and becomes about 5 times the size of the original sponge. The feeling on the skin is amazing. The make-up application is exceptional and certainly not something you can achieve with a common brush. Because I am a big fun of mineral powder make-ups I am not using it for the base application but I use it for the under-eye concealer, the base correctors and I do love it for applying blush.

I had to try this out after hearing so many brilliant things about it. The product arrived quickly, I was pleased with the service. On opening the packaging the beauty blender and its little tub (the packaging) did look a little smaller than I expected, I measured the tub at approximately 5.5cm tall, 4.5cm diameter. First impressions were still good though, it is so soft and bouncy, so much more 'spring' in it than other sponge-type applicators I have used previously.I ran the BB under the tap and started to squeeze and as if by magic it grew! My saturated BB measures approximately 7cm tall and 5cm diameter. So it has outgrown it's little tub but the packaging can be used as a little stand to air dry the BB.

I had read a lot of recommendations about this beauty blender and i always want to try it. I have tried and have owned hundreds of different make up sponges by other brands, in various shapes and sizes. This is the softest, most delicate sponge and it makes putting your foundation on so easy. You can use it to apply powder, liquid foundation, eyeshadow and everything. It is really soft and the size is perfect for applying concealer under your eyes. Worth all money spent because this beauty blender lasts long, doesn’t change the structure, perfectly blends make-up , doesn’t leave any marks.My only problem, at the beginning, was that I couldn't possibly clean it well enough and get rid of all the make-up stains on it.

I'm so pleased i finally bought one of these. Although i find i use slightly more product than i would using either my fingers or a brush, the results far exceed these methods.Simply run the blender under the tap (squeezing a few times so it is evenly wet), gently wring out, wrap in a hand towel, squeeze again so it is only slightly damp and its ready to go (leaving too much moisture in your beauty blender will sheer out your foundation).A few reviews mentioned mould growing on their beauty blender, i can only assume this was because it was left too wet and or wasnt fully clean. To clean mine i use Aleppo soap as it is free from nasty chemicals,

After all the hype around the BeautyBlender and being caught between this and the more reasonably prices real techniques version, I decided to give this product a go.First the delivery was brilliant. I ordered the item in the morning and received it the next day. When I first opened the package, I was surprised to find the sponge much smaller than I expected. However after holding under the water and squeezing the excess liquid out the sponge doubled in size.I wanted to use the BeautyBlender for a few months before reviewing and I must say I do not know what took me so long. My skin looks airbrushed constantly. There is something about applying your foundation on with this damp sponge.

MY LOVE FEELYS ARE GOING INSAAAAAAANE!! Anyone who thinks a simple beauty blender won't make that much of a difference to their makeup, is WRONG!! By all means use a cheap drug store blender to moisturise and prime, but if you want that makeup to melt beautifully into your skin, you just need this item. NEED! Foundation, concealer, powder, eyeshadow base, contour... The blender will make light work of it all in half the time. Spend the money on this item, I guarantee it's worth it. It comes in its plastic container (which I use to store), and it's so tiny. Tiny to the point that too think you've received the wrong item, like the mini blender. But wet this little gem and it expands to double the size,

Wow. I honestly didn't know what to expect from this product, though it had great reviews all over the internet, I was still a little skeptical due to my skin. I have very dry, sensitive skin, which tends to get quite flakey, and i get a lot of dry patches on my face. This means that applying foundation is a bit of a nightmare, and I can never get an even coverage, and I spend forever trying to blend it all in. I use Origins vitazing bb cream daily, and this is what I used with the Beautyblender.And all I can say is wow! It really worked for me! No streaky marks, dry areas, uneven coverage, nothing! It honestly makes my skin look flawless, which is something I never thought a little makeup sponge would do.

I love this product, all you need for it to work is water and I honestly think that my make up looks so much better. I love the way it makes my make up look sort of dewy and not caked on at all, whereas all the brushes I've used before have just made it look really thick and horrible. This product can literally replace the majority of your make up brushes, so instead of having to lug around my set of brushes for different types of make up I can just use this. I'm not kidding, I use it for my concealer, liquid foundation, powder foundation and even my blush. It does take some getting used to, but once you've got the technique you'll love it. Also it does stain but I don't think there's any getting around that,

After switching from powder foundation back to liquid, I was on the hunt for a good quality make up sponge, as although I use a foundation brush occasionally, I prefer the finish I get with sponges. After seeing so many glowing accounts about the BeautyBlender and asking myself whether I was actually crazy enough to spend that amount of money on a single make up sponge, I bought one. Apparently I am crazy like a fox as this thing is dynamite! All sponges will absorb some product but the BeautyBlender absorbs a minimal amount, particularly comforting if you're using one of the more high end foundations. In terms of application, it gives you an effortlessly beautiful, flawless finish.

i love the beauty blender i have tried other brands cheaper and more expensive but this one has the spot on texture to give a fantastic even coverage and is the perfect shape and design to get into every crease especially those sneaky little nooks between the eye and nose. dampen first and squeeze as much water out as possible so you dont water down you foundation or smear your highlighting/toning/blush. i use a different one for each action and they last absolutely ages also. if you are worried about being able to get the hang of applying make up with this then please be assured it is so easy to use.

Before i purchased this product i had seen a lot of youtube 'gurus' using and talking about it , which stirred my curiosity. I had been watching it for a while but the price always put me off , and being a make up artist myself and working in beauty i had always stayed away from sponges believing that they were good for nothing more than soaking up your product , therefore being wasteful. HOWEVER i absoloutely love this beauty blender!!!! , more than any make up brush I own , it feels amazing to the touch ,and blends every thing out to perfection , when i finish my foundation looks flawless and i have never blended my concealer in so well. definitely would repurchase ,actually i want a second one.

I've been using brushes for a very long time and only recently I've been patting my foundation with my brushes, I am one of those unfortunate people that regardless of technique, my foundation always to some extent looked cake. I spent a lot of time thinking if I should buy a fancy sponge for that price but let me tell you one thing, this sponge gives such a FLAAWLESS finish it's absolutely amazing. I've been getting a lot of compliments on how my skin looks. It looks soo smooth and there's no signs of foundation on my face. I also apply my highlighter with this sponge, my god the glow that I get absolutely beautiful. I love this sponge so much I've ordered a duo set!
