Hi beauties! I finally gave in and bought myself The Original Beauty Blender. I ordered mine from Sephora (link) for $19.95, which is not cheap and that's one reason I have put off buying it.
It comes in a plastic container and I was really surprised how small it is. When you wet it before applying your foundation it grows twice as big.
What they say:
Beautyblender features an open cell structure that fills with small amounts of water when wet. This allows the sponge to be “full” so that the makeup product sits on top of the sponge rather than being absorbed, allowing you to use less product every time. When wet, beautyblender doubles in size and becomes even softer, returning to its original size when it air dries. Handcrafted in the USA.
The Beauty Blender is made with non-latex foam and the texture of it feels different then anything else I have used. It feels really bouncy, if it makes any sense.
When using this to apply my foundation or concealer it blends it out so much easier and it makes my skin looks flawless. I have tried other sponge applicators to apply my foundation, but non of them come close to the Beauty Blender.
How to use:
- Wet it with water
- Squeeze out excess water with towel
- Bounce the product your using across the face
I like that I can use it many different ways. I also apply my powder with it and cream blushes, so its not just to apply your foundation. It has definitely changed the way I apply my makeup and I feel like it takes less time to apply my foundation, then with a brush.
If you are thinking about getting Beauty Blender, I highly recommend it. Its worth the investment and if you take care of it, it will last a long time.
Have you tried the Beauty Blender?
Thanks for reading! xo's
I have never used the original beauty blender, only the dupes and they work really well

I really really want to try it, seems perfect! How long do you think it'll last you when you properly take care of it? 1 or two months or more? That's my only apprehension... X
