So I know a lot of people use a brush or a sponge to apply their foundation.. I use my fingers? I find it easier... Is that bad??
I tired using a brush but I didn't like how it came out looking... Idk if I did it wrong..
But is it bad to use my hands to apply foundation?

Not at all! Fingers are one of the best tools for applying makeup. Whatever you do, just makeup your thoroughly wash them before applying foundation. Your fingers get warm so they make makeup super easy to blend. I would use my fingers more often but I feel like I get less coverage. Good luck!

If that gives you the finish you like best there's nothing wrong with that, it's not bad unless you don't blend it or it looks unnatural, so the answer is if you like that technique best then that's okay

Oh yeah I should probably wash my hands before... Duh...
Well I like how it looks better than the brush but I don't know if its bc I use the brush wrong...
What I don't like about it is that it does y cover so good... Maybe its just the foundation?

It is fine to use your fingers, as long as you take proper hygiene into consideration.
Fingers don't give the best coverage... usually a flat foundation brush will give you the highest possible coverage.

I actually totally understand how you feel for me when I had my est?e lauder foundation when I applyed it with my fingers it looked horrid but when I used my brush it looked great now I'm using Revlon colour stay and I tryed using my brush and my face looked terrible so I now use my fingers and I still look fab in my opinion it is really the foundation and as long as your washing your hands their is nothing wrong with that and also some brushes give better finishes then other :D hope I could help

I use fingers. Because the friction and heat from your bare skin helps blend the foundation more.
