My thoughts on BEAUTYBLENDER® ORIGINAL?
I got it almost one year back when everyone was going gaga over it. I heard really good reviews from people in my community and of course, from the famous beauty gurus on YouTube so I decide to splurge and did not regret my decision. I was not into applying foundation with any brushes or sponges when I first got it. Switching from fingers to a proper foundation application tool was a nice change and I loved it. I absolutely loved how it made my foundation last longer on my face as compared to applying it with fingers. I then got into the makeup craze and invested in some awesome foundation brushes which I absolutely love, but my love for the beauty blender will never die especially as long as this trend of dewy finish foundations last.
I would however suggest that you try its cheaper alternative “Real Techniques Complexion Sponge” if you want to enter the bandwagon but are on a budget too.
