Review - Beauty Blender
Okay, so in a nutshell? I FREAKING LOVE this thing. I had NO idea how much makeup I was wasting by using my fingers! Disclaimer - I have never used a foundation brush. I have never even tried, I knew I wasn't coordinated enough to not look like I painted it on so I never even tried. But I bought the BB from beautybar.com and I love it. I use it with my tinted moisturizer and literally use half of what I would use when I had used my fingers. I love that thing. I clean it with my Bobbi Brown makeup brush cleanser and have had no issues.
H commented my face looked smooth but that could also be based on me finally buying a new brush head for my Clarisonic and getting over a cold that left my nose a dry peeling mess. But anyway, I love this thing and will most certainly buy another one.
I spend about an extra minute using this than I did using my fingers, so it isn't a huge difference for me. I can do my makeup in five minutes easy. I do TM and powder with mascara on a normal day. I will use foundation and moisturizer, etc. on a more special day like going to a wedding tomorrow. But it literally on takes me about an extra minute, if that.
I love that it is buildable and that it covers my face and any dark spots or blemishes naturally. I don't really feel like I need separate corrector or concealer! Just thought I would post a review from someone that doesn't wear a ton of makeup nor do I spend a lot of time on my makeup regime.
Re: Review - Beauty Blender
agreed. once i started using a foundation brush, I found that I wasn't buying foundation as often. Same thing with face wash. Once I started using my clarisonic, I started using a lot less face wash.
