Makeup sponge drop small 3 x 2 cm 3 pieces

Most sponges are used when wet.

It is therefore necessary to soak them and gently, but really thoroughly, squeeze the water out of them. Moisture prevents the sponge from absorbing too much product (which is why you should choose ones with smaller pores). It also allows for an even application of makeup in a very thin layer without streaks. The surface of the skin then appears natural and compact. You can apply a tinting texture with a sponge, whether it has a solid or liquid consistency. Apply it to the back of your hand or directly onto the sponge and gently and lightly work it into the skin by "dabbing," from the center of the face to its edges. The sponge adapts to the surface of the skin, mimicking it, and the products do not settle into small imperfections, wrinkles, or lines. You can use the same technique to apply concealer, highlighter, or powder. It will help you create truly seamless transitions. 

Cleaning the sponge is essential:
Although disposable sponges still exist, many of them today boast longer durability and can last for several months. However, it is necessary to take care of them. First and foremost, wash them regularly and gently. There are special cleaners for this, but you can easily handle it with a makeup remover or very mild soap or baby shampoo. Give them care. It will reward you with flawless makeup that you can create in just a few minutes.

Stubborn and hard makeup sponges have until recently discouraged most of us. Their appearance has hardly changed since the 1920s, when they were introduced to the world of film cosmetics by the Max Factor company. For a simple reason. Make-up at that time existed in such a solid form that it needed to be diluted with water to release the color pigment. Small triangular sponges were perfect for that. Up to 21. The century, thanks to new manufacturing technologies and materials used, once again secured them a place in the spotlight. Today, they have such qualities that they have become indispensable cosmetic helpers.

The basic criteria for recognizing a quality sponge are softness, flexibility, and low porosity.

But there is no guaranteed guide on how to choose the right one. What suits one person may not meet the requirements of another. To achieve the best possible result, it is probably best to try out what it can do. They can be latex, foam, made from natural materials, and the latest trend is silicone. The raw materials used for production therefore differ in their properties. Moreover, they can have various shapes, which can also affect the use of the sponge. Generally, smaller shapes can be successfully used on small surfaces. For example, under the eyes, in the corners of the eyes, around the nostrils, and so on. Larger ones will perfectly handle the remaining parts of the face.
