New Look Blend Beauty Sponges Review

08:30


When I seen this two pack of blending sponges at New Look for only £4.99 I had to buy them! The pack features a pink and a black sponge.

After experiencing good results with the Superdrug B. Blender I had high expectations that these sponges would be just as good. The sponges come in a pack of two - one pink and one black for only £4.99. This is great value compared to the original beautyblender!

I wet the sponge before using to make it expand. It almost doubles in size, similar to the original beautyblender. Once wet I noticed that the sponge is actually really dense. I squeeze out any excess before applying the foundation. It applies the foundation to my face but I do find the sponge absorbs quite a lot of the foundation. This mean it requires more product to achieve my preferred look. I don't think it applies as well as the Superdrug sponge or the original beauty blender. 

The sponge is easily stained also due to it absorbing so much product, however it does all wash out of the sponge when cleaning. I think it does an average job of applying foundation so I won't be purchasing these again unfortunately!

Have you tried this sponge?

    I don't use sponges, I prefer to work with my brushes since it gives me a better result. Too bad this is not you were expecting and it's an average product.

      Yeah I used to always use brushes until I tried the original beautyblender and I can't seem to get the same results with brushes anymore x

    These sound a little disappointing, I'll stick to my Beauty Blender!
