Wishing you had the kind of flawless, glowing complexion that only the soft-focus filter on your phone camera seems to achieve? Let’s introduce you to a real-world miracle worker, the Makeup Sponge. A beauty tool that helps you blend your foundation perfectly, the sponge ensures even coverage and is pretty easy to use, once you’ve learnt a few basic tricks.

INVINCIBLE EGG

The makeup sponge has been around for a long time. The most common ones were the stiff, triangle-shaped ones that were used to even out pancake foundations. But they had their own drawbacks, so when the egg-shaped Beauty Blender was created by Makeup artist Rea Ann Silva in 2002, it pretty much took the world by storm.

There are many makeup sponges available in the market and picking the right one makes a big difference. The sponge is soft on the skin and, unlike makeup brushes, it does not emphasize dry patches and flakiness.

SUPER SPONGE

These days makeup sponges are available in a variety of shapes and sizes and colours to suit every need. While the iconic egg-shaped Beauty Blender occupies a special position in most beauty kits. The best part is that they are available in all possible sizes. The really tiny ones are brilliant to use on the under eyes area. A few come with flat surfaces as well, which work perfectly for contour lines.

WHEN BUYING MAKEUP SPONGE

When buying a makeup sponge, look for something that is soft and porous. Small sponges are great for spot application to hide marks on acne. The pointed tip of the sponge is great to target smaller areas of your face such as the corners of the eyes and areas around your nose. The flat surface on some sponges is great for powder application and to cover larger areas on your face.

BLEND BASICS: DO’S AND DONT’S

• Don’t use a dirty sponge or the same sponge for too many products. Mixing products on a sponge isn’t a great idea.
• Only use a best quality or you will end up doing more than good.
• Do not drag or rub the sponge on the skin; instead use a dab or roll motion.
• After blending the foundation with a brush, dab rather than rub, the blender all over the face make sure you don’t remove products.
• Dampen the sponge the right way and when you squeeze the waterout.

Blending sponge’s popularity is its versatility. Tend to use it to apply blush, moisturizer, corrector and highlighter to contour, define brows, apply eyeliner and also to tone a look and evenly apply powder on the face.

Blenders are every beauty expert’s go-to tool. You really need it in your life right now to change your beauty game.
