Product description
The patent-pending, elliptical-shaped Beautyblender cosmetic sponge was created by two top Hollywood makeup artists to give a flawless airbrush finish to your complexion. The fuschia sponge's unique shape means you can use it all over the face. It's latex-free, non-irritating, non-allergenic and odourless. It's both long-lasting and easily washable.
Why it's cult
Beautyblender has an elliptical shape that fits perfectly to the contours of the face, its surface creates an air-brushed finish which means it can be used all over the face with all types of makeup. It's reusable and openly endorsed by Hollywood heavies, like Oprah, Beyonce, Gwen Stefani, Shakira, Diana Ross, Fergie, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Katherine Heigl and many more.
Directions & ingredients
Directions
Dampen the sponge and squeeze out. Dot makeup on your face and then bounce the sponge gently onto the makeup, blend with a patting motion. Use the round base for foundation and blush on the larger areas of your face such as your forehead, cheeks and chin, whilst the point works well around the eyes, in the smile lines and on spots. Wash with Beautyblender cleanser or gentle soap and warm water. Squeeze and let dry. It can be used and re-used for months.

Great Gismo

It is such a great idea to do a sponge in this shape it reaches all those areas you usually have to go over after with your fingers and while it is a little pricey, it does last for ages. I am pale and so need to be very careful with making sure my foundation/concealer is even and BB does the job quickly and reliably. This sponge is quite thirsty so if I am looking for light coverage I dampen it before dipping in the cream (this also means you don't run out of foundation in a week). I would recommend to anyone really.
The only tool I use to apply my make up now

The beautyblender sponge is now the only thing I use to apply everything from concealer to foundation, blush and powder. It's great. My skin looks airbrushed after I use it and it's really easy to wash and leave on the ledge to dry.

perfect for applying and blending fluid foundation.
Pricey but I would recommend it.
By Jenni, Political Researcher, Twenties, London
This does seem a bit expensive for a sponge, but it does work well for those not brilliant at applying makeup evenly, a bit like an airbrush. I was quite glad to find it is a robust tool that you can wash over and over again otherwise the price would have really got to me.
Disappointing
By Julia Draper, , , Barnsley
I have tried to use this with my usual under eye concealer (Lancome, which is not very dense) and noticed that it hardly covered my dark circles. Also tried it with Circle Block, but Circle Block was too thick for this blender to apply properly. I wish I had not wasted my money (but this together with a cleanser).
