Microfiber Rosé Velvet Sponge

I don't typically wear liquid foundation, so I can't speak to that functionality of this sponge, but I love that it works for powder products. I've used it dry to apply powder, blush, and highlighter. At first, it applies slightly heavier than a brush typically would, so I use a clean side to blend it out and it's perfect!

I'm especially excited about the prospect of bringing this sponge with me while traveling, rather than packing multiple brushes! Even if you're also using liquid or cream products, you could pack a couple of these sponges and that would be all you need to apply your face makeup. Plus, you can't beat the $6 price!

I feel like I’ve used this product adequately to leave a proper review. For starters I will say that the quality is nice and it does have a fuzzy velvet feel. It is heavier than a beauty blender and a bit wider. I use liquid foundation, followed by concealer under the eyes, and often a very quick hit of powder to bake my concealer. I will say that for general liquid foundation the product works fine and is more blurring than a BB. I don’t feel like it retained water as well as your normal BB, but it’s not as porous so that wasn’t surprising. The bottom is oldly shaped and does not aid in the makeup process. I struggled blending out my concealer. This product left a clear mark of demarcation and would not blend my concealer into my foundation. The velvet base material made the concealer tacky and stick to it, which completely removed portions of the concealer from my face. When I switched to my BB for the concealer portion, it blended fine as it always does. So I would say if you have a simply routine of concealer only, you’d probably love this. I am however not a fan of having to use a separate applicator when I could simply use my BB flawlessly for both processes.

I didn't like the way the sponge applied liquid foundation. I felt that it left the sponge's texture all over my face..I tried it both and dry. I went back to my real techniques sponge.
