How-To Wash A BEAUTYBLENDER Makeup Sponge

Today I'm answering every beauty junkie's favourite question: is the BeautyBlender sponge worth it? 

For me, yes!

This latex-free foam makeup sponge "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." -sephora.ca 

I initially bought the BeautyBlender cleanser, in bar form, and really liked how it worked to clean my sponge. After cringing at the price tag once I finished my first bar ($22 CAD), I started to search for some more affordable options. My beloved Dr. Bronners Magic Soap seems to work great on both makeup brushes and sponges, so that is what I have been using.

This BeautyBlender sponge has lasted me 3 years and I am so happy with the condition that it's in. Despite the $28 CAD price tag, only purchasing one sponge and keeping it clean is an economical choice for my makeup bag. This sponge also gives a flawless finish when applying my favourite Revlon ColorStay Whipped Creme foundation, along with any concealer or cream blush. I also enjoy how it's handcrafted in the USA, as opposed to in a far-off land overseas.
