Okay, I've had acne for three years now. I've been using a dupe of the beauty blender, which didn't come with cleanser or anything so I clean it as well as I can with my face wash. Anyways, my face has been breaking out even worse than usual and I just wanted to know if the Betty blender is the problem because when I clean it I feel like I'm not really cleaning it? Please help, my right side of my jaw is breaking out horribly and I usually never get any there (surprisingly) 😒😔

How often do you wash your pillow case/pillow? Do you use a toner or cleanser before bed? Do you sleep with your hair around your face? I've generally come to find these things make the sides of my face break out a bit more (dirty pillow case , left over stuff on my face, hair on my skin while I sleep). Since I started using a toner/cleaner (I have the Estée Lauder 3 in 1 one) I don't get the little bumps on my cheeks anymore.
I don't think your BB is really to blame. If you want to disinfect it though, spray it with 90% or higher alcohol, or dip it in the stuff, squeeze it out, and let it air dry.

What Erin said. :)
But also wipe your phone with electronic wipes. You'd be surprised how that much acne can be caused by a 30 second phone call. :)

I'm not sure if it will work as a miracle for you, but I love using St Ives apricot scrub and swear by it when I get heaps of breakouts :)

Don't use the apricot scrub. That stuff is basically like scrubbing your face with shards of glass. The particles they use are too sharp and cause micro tears. But you should use something that is antibacterial to clean your BB with. Baby shampoo will get the product out and kill some bacteria but maybe not enough of it. I use antibacterial dish soap with mine. You should also wash it about every 3 uses and if you need to you can spritz it with alcohol between those 3 uses to kill any surface bacteria.
But I would also do what Erin suggested. It could be your pillowcase, or also your phone screen. You touch your phone with both hands all day and then put that to your face, so pretty much anything you've touched before touching your phone ends up on your face.
