So I recently bought a real techniques sponge at boots and I thought I needed to write a post on it. I have never used a sponge to apply makeup before and I was really intrigued to see how it goes.
My favourite thing about this sponge is the 3in1 aspect. The flat side I have been using the most to apply foundation and its great for concealer under the eyes too. The pointed tip is great for dealing with blemishes on my face and I also read about using the rounded side for blusher and bronzer which I am yet to try.
The coverage this gives me is medium which I actually really like. The makeup blends into your skin so well and gives such a smooth base, almost like you have not got any product on. I made sure to add more for the blemishes as some of them tend to show through.
While researching I found out how important it is to clean the sponge on a regular basis and I have really been keeping it up. I also use the 'microwave for 30 seconds' tip for disinfecting it and so far so good.
Im so glad I bought this sponge and I will continue to use it especially for those days when I want slightly less coverage and am not breaking out. If you wish to purchase one yourself, heres the link:

It really is, it goes on so smoothly! I try to wash it every 3-4 days because that's what it says on the pack! :)

I never knew about the microwave trick! I'll have to try that

OkayKate.
It's so good! You just place it in a bowl with an inch of water for 30 seconds and the job is done! Be careful though it gets really hot!
