Makeup Sponge

Are you also familiar with the problem that when you apply foundation with a brush, patches and streaks often remain visible? This is not the case with a makeup sponge; this tool applies the product airily so that you get a beautiful natural effect. The makeup sponge works best when it is wet, because when the sponge has already absorbed water, it will not absorb any foundation or concealer. Moreover, the sponge becomes softer when it is damp, making application a bit easier. When applying foundation, it is best to put a little foundation on the back of your hand and then apply it to your face from there. The best way to apply foundation is to make a 'bounce' motion, which allows you to apply the product to your face as if you are dabbing it on.

Makeup sponges come in all shapes and sizes, but most makeup sponges have an 'egg' shape. This is so you can easily reach all areas of your face, for example around your nose and eyes. Another advantage of the sponge is that you can build up the coverage well; do you want more coverage? Then apply another layer of foundation!

Using a makeup sponge

You can apply not only your foundation with a sponge; concealer and also products such as powder and bronzer can be dabbed onto the face. The makeup sponge is actually mainly suitable for applying liquid products, but powder can also be used in combination with the sponge. The sponge is perfect for 'baking' with it; baking will keep your foundation and concealer in place better. You apply a generous layer of powder to the areas where you want the makeup to stay in place better, after 5 minutes you brush the remaining powder off your face with a brush and voilà.

Tip: Spray some setting spray on your sponge before you use it, so your makeup will stay on longer!
