Ok so I am probably the only one on the earth that doesn't have a beauty blender and all the tutorials I see use beauty blenders to blend out their contour and highlight and ugh what brush could I use to blend out until I can get my hands on a beauty blender?

For the question, I don't have a beauty blender either, and I've always used a dense, flat brush to blend cream contour/highlight and it works fine. I'm using the real techniques buffing brush and it works really well for me.

Use one like this, I don't have a beauty blender and this works perfectly! Apply your make up, countour, highlight and then use it in little circles in the area you want to blend, by the way as you see in the picture is not that the "hair" (sorry I don't know how is it called in english) of the brush is not black turning to white, the brush has two different types of "hair" the black ones and the white ones :)

Don't worry I don't have the beauty blender either! I do have a dupe though. I prefer using my fingers or a flat top brush though! it works better for me. you can get a dupe blender or flat top brush on amazon for really cheap! and they aren't bad quality either :)

For liquid products, I find that fingers work best. Otherwise, for blush/bronzed/powder, just use powder brushes.

Defiantly a duo fibre stippling brush! The most inexpensive ones I know are the ELF ones. I love my Morphe stippling brush though <3
The soho blender is only good for cream contour. I tried it with foundation and it took years lol. But the tj maxx/Marshall's beauty blender is really great compared to the original. I have all 3 and I've tried them out comparatively (:

I don't contour lol! the soho works good for my liquid foundation but I love the tj maxx one as well!
