Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge First Impression

Hey everyone! I'm back! Today I will be sharing with you my initial first reaction(s) when using the Real Techniques Sponge. I was hesitant to try another beauty sponge after having a horrible experience with one that I had purchased at the drugstore in the USA from the Studio 35 line. It was rock hard and was very difficult to use in general.

On the other hand, the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge is very inexpensive as I purchased mine at Ulta for only $5.99. It has two sides: a pointed side for a more precise application and a flat side.

The sponge gave me a flawless finish and was fairly easy to use. The pointed tip really comes in useful for around the nose, under and around the eyes. I liked using the flat side for: the forehead, cheeks, down the bridge of my nose, my chin and down my neck. 

MAKE SURE TO WET THE SPONGE AND THEN SQUEEZE OUT THE EXCESS WATER BEFORE USING IT! I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH! 

I have not tried the beauty blender and can't compare this sponge to that one. As far as cleaning goes, the sponge had little staining and cleans well. To clean my sponge, all I use is some baby shampoo by Johnson & Johnson. I felt that the sponge did absorb a lot of product and I had to clean it very thoroughly but it wasn't a problem to do so.

However, I will say that I do adore my makeup brushes and this sponge won't replace them just yet. I do intend on playing around with this sponge some more and maybe in a few months, it will in fact replace my makeup brushes!

Overall, the quality is there and the sponge is definitely worth the money in my opinion! It is soft and makes blending out your foundation easy! It distributes the product evenly over your entire face. This is a great tool for someone who is just starting to get into makeup.

STAY CLASSY.

Thanks for stopping by!
