Foundation. There are so many different types and shades that you are bound to find one that works for you. Once you've found your perfect product you need to find the best way to apply it. And for that there also seems to be an ever growing number of choices!
Brushes, triangular sponges, even your fingertips - the key to a flawless look is not only in the product you choose, but also the way you choose to apply it. Beauty Blenders exploded in popularity a few years back, and unlike a lot of trends, they haven't gone anywhere. They've only evolved.
We're putting the Manicare Flawless Complexion Sponge. This is an all in 1 sponge that'll give you flawless coverage, whether you use it to apply a foundation, BB cream, concealer or any other liquid or cream covered base product. You can use this non-latex sponge wet for a light coverage and dry for a light coverage.
The sponge has three different 'shaped' surfaces, each allowing you to try a different application process.
1. Use the flat side to apply foundation (liquid or cream based) to ensure an even coverage. Apply using soft sweeps across the face.
2. For more coverage, use a pushing technique by gently pushing the sponge into the skin
3. Use the flat sides for application of concealer under the eyes
4. Use the rounded end to apply concealer to blemishes or imperfections by gently pushing the sponge into the skin.
5. Use the sides of the sponge to blend using a push and roll technique, gently pushing the sponge into the skin and rolling it away to help to blend your foundation.
We need 25 people to trial and review this sponge for us - sound like something you'd like to do?
I've never tried a sponge or blender actually! At the moment I use a buffer brush and that works quite well. I can imagine a sponge having a more natural effect though. I've watched all the youtubers using blenders anyway so it's about time I give it a try!
