Conserves foundation!
This makeup sponge is very effective in saving foundation. I previously only used regular wedge sponges, and I used to fly through my foundation. This silicone sponge has cut my foundation use in half (at least).<br /><br />Before purchasing this, I read some reviews that talked about poor coverage, but as I expected, you have to adjust to using this type of sponge. It doesn't function like a traditional sponge. You have to adjust to using much less makeup, otherwise you'll end up with way too much on your face. I also read one reviewer state it felt like she was jus wiping it around, but foundation shouldn't be wiped; it should be dabbed. I found that using the silicone sponge followed by a traditional makeup sponge works better in difficult areas (around the nose, under the eyes). I use the silicone sponge for blanket coverage and as much blending as possible, and then I finish with a regular makeup sponge to clean up the hard to reach spots.<br /><br />I would recommend this sponge to anyone. I anticipate it will save me a lot of money in foundation. It is also very easy to clean. I just rinse it under the sink with hand soap.
