Splurge {vs} Save - #28 - Beauty Sponges

{Left- Beauty Blender, Right- Forever 21}

Another great tool for a flawless make-up application!  The original Beauty Blender sponge retails for $19.95, the Forever 21 version is $3.80.  

What it is: A makeup sponge applicator.
What it does: 
An ergonomically designed non-disposable sponge applicator that allows you to flawlessly apply your makeup.  When wet, it doubles in size and becomes even softer, returning to its original size when it air dries.  Its package can serve as a pedestal for drying it on your vanity.  Not only is the smaller end the best applicator for concealer under the eyes and around the nose, but it's also ideal for achieving dramatic results with your eye shadow.  Feel free to use the sponge with all types of makeup, including loose powder and mineral cosmetics.
What else you need to know:
This non-latex product is hypoallergenic and can last up to three to four months if cared for properly.  The original Beauty Blender is an Allure Best of Beauty Award Winner.

Suggested Usage:
-Should be used dampened with water and can be used with any type of makeup formulation: liquid, cream, powder, loose, or pressed.
-It is to be used in a stippling or "bouncing" action, not a dragging motion across the face.
