    Here is a really good tip for you all!!! Don't put the foundation on all at once then try to blend it. What you do is pump it on to the back of your hand and pick up small amounts and do your face in sections. Start on your cheeks and go outwards to the edges, you can add more to the spots that need more coverage after the first pass. This will help you to use a lot less products and to have a seamless blend. A lot of foundations set quickly so when you dot your face and blend it you can't move it around fast enough so it look cakey and uneven!

    Personally the best sponges I’ve tried are:
    Real techniques- super easy to find and the flat edge helps me blend my foundation
    Juno sponge- I get mine from amazon and in a pack they’re cheaper than real techniques. love it for my under eye concealer
    Beakly sponge- these are from amazon and are the PERFECT dupe for beauty blenders. They’re even better and in a 5 pack, cost just about 2 bucks each. They expand amazing and are my favorite for EVERY makeup job

      I mean... I definitely did. Especially with the morphe sponge, it didn't do a great job blending especially on the forehead, it's not as seamless and you can still sort of see where the contour was originally applied.
      As opposed to the L'oreal sponge she used before that where the blending on the forehead was completely seamless and you couldn't tell where the contour ended and the everything else began.

    The Beauty Blender is the biggest gimmick in makeup. I personally love the EcoTools sponge, but any of the other options are very similar to the BB. The fact that they have built such a successful business selling the SAME thing that you can get at your drugstore for a fraction of the cost, just shows how powerful marketing and advertisements are.

      Beauty blender is the original egg shape sponge, yes there were many makeup sponge at drug store but not egg shaped.

    I get my beauty blender from superstore. It’s joe fresh, the store brand and it works fine. Same with the eyelash curler I got from joe fresh.

    I don’t wet the real techniques one very much. When I do that it doesn’t work right. I spray it a couple of times with a spray bottle
    Edit: I originally wrong pray bottle 😂
