The ultimate makeup applicator sponge is the original. There is no dupe. There's nothing that matches the natural-looking finish this sponge gives you.

I received this as a gift from a friend who lives abroad.
Probably the best item I've received/purchased for myself in years.

I prefer natural looking makeup and rarely use anything other than my fingers to apply my makeup. I was pleasantly surprised when I first used this product. My foundation application was flawless! I was streak free and I could choose just how thinly/thickly I wanted to apply my makeup.

The beauty blender is also perfect for applying powders. I use mine specifically to set my under eye and forehead area.

Now..We all know how important it is to get your FaceBeat right and there are sooo many products on the shelves that sell you that dream.

I have been a lover of the beauty blender since I saw many beauty Youtubers using it. Looooooove it!!!

My liquid foundation is alway well blended and the concealer doesn't need my fingers to dab no more.

The quality is O-M-G and it really goes a long way.

If you get tired of your foundation brush letting down by leaving those fibers on your face - switch to the Beauty Blender.

I wasn't big into applying my foundation with anything other than my own fingers for the longest time. Then I tried out the Real Techniques sponge and it was just so fantastic at applying and blending my foundation.

I finally got my hands on a Beauty Blender, and I have to say it's definitely worth the hype and the money. It blends like a dream, and my foundation looks so flawless!

Beauty Blenders are unfortunately quite expensive and difficult to get hold of in SA. If you can get your hands on one, it is well worth the money. I haven't tried anything to date (Incl Real Techniques Sponge) that quite comes to the effect you get with a Beauty Blender. It gives you a smooth airbrushed appearance and blends foundation and concealer like a dream. If I only have to have one beauty tool, chances are very good for me to pick the Beauty Blender.

Albeit expensive, the real BeautyBlender is amazing!!!! Used damp, it helps to make the foundation look like a second skin and it is great for setting your under-eye concealer or pressing powder into the face.

There are a ton of dupes for this product (which I have not tried) but I always think it's better to go with the real thing. I will get my hands on one of the cheap ones and do a comparison at some stage.

After finally purchasing a real Beauty Blender I can honestly say that I may NEVER go back to brushes! The application is perfection and you look airbrushed and mattified. As well as using a lot less foundation on your skin you also waste a lot less foundation and your bottle which once lasted a month will now last you a few more weeks.

I have seen people comment that you need to damped the blender before applying the product as it uses less product that way but I never wet my blender and it works just as well.

You can purchase these from Clicks, online, Pick n Pay etc etc. A REAL branded Blender costs about R300 and has to be imported but I would recommend the Clicks Blender Baby for only R87.

I got the set with the cleanser, you are told to run water over the blender until it doubles in size, and trust me it does get big, then you squeeze excess water out, and then apply you foundation! Absolutely no streaks and went on quick compared to a foundation brush, however when I tried to clrnse it using the provided blender cleanser I couldn't get all the foundation off

Rubybox has a special runninh on the beauty blender and cleanser for under R400 bucks, use your ruby Rands to get it even cheaper

My favourite thing about the Beauty Blender is the flawless, airbrushed finish, that it gives to my foundation. I have never achieved such a natural effect with any other applicator before.
I also love that it works with all liquid products- foundation, highlighter, concealer and cream blush. I love applying my MAC 'Lady Blush' cream blush with it. If you find cream blushers tricky to apply, which they often are, then definitely give the Beauty Blender a go- it blends colour beautifully and gives a natural, seamless finish. A glow from within!

It's really easy to use. You have to dampen the sponge, and it will expand to twice its original size. If you were to use the sponge dry, it would just absorb all of the product. I like to apply a pump of my foundation onto the back of my hand, dot it around my face (more in the areas that need it most) and blend it out with the Beauty Blender. The sponge is very soft and bouncy- i use a 'bouncy'/patting motion when blending foundation with it- i find it really fun to use! The pointed tip is perfect for concealer, and getting into any hard-to-reach areas, such as around the nose and eyes. The larger base, is great for areas like the cheeks, where i need more coverage, or for applying cream blush. I also like to roll the sponge along the jawline to blend my foundation with my neck.

You will need to use more product with the Beauty Blender- it does sheer out foundation a little. I often use 2 1/2 pumps with the Beauty Blender rather than my typical 2 pumps without the BB. Although you may have to use more product, the results are so worth it- the natural, flawless finish is unbeatable and i have never achieved the same effect with anything else.
