Review (1/5): Not ideal for face painting
These might be great for buffing small projects but they are terrible for face painting. Very coarse to the touch, don't blend well and hang onto to much paint which winds up being a great waste. I used to find this type of sponge in a softer, more tightly closed cell that was perfect for face paint application but it's been several years since they have been of that quality. I have also found that they can be different from one batch to the next. Sometimes I get some that are usable if not ideal.
