12 Days of Giveaways - Day 9

Hi lovelies,

It took me a while to warm up to the idea this egg shaped sponge, but lately I have been obsessed with it. The Beauty Blender is an unexpected favourite amongst my beauty tools. I picked up two a couple months and decided to pick up another one for one of you.

What I love most about the Beauty Blender. aside from the unique shape, is the ability to use it wet. I think that's the key to the smooth, flawless finish that it creates. The dampness of the sponge blends product beautifully. I use this when applying concealer under the eyes and it's the most natural finish. I've also used it on the rare occasion I wear foundation and it creates the same natural finish.

Essentially, the Beauty Blender is a sponge. That's why the results were so unexpected for me. It's hard to believe that something so seemingly simple, could be so great for applying makeup.


If you'd like to win a Beauty Blender, just enter below. All you need to know is that this giveaway is open worldwide and it will end on December 12th, 2012 at 12:00 AM EST. The winner will be contacted via email. Plus, I will announce the winner here and on facebook / twitter.

    I have used makeup sponges before and quite like it but not very much. I am undecided whether I should splurge on a beautyblender because it is such a cult favourite and it just seems amazing to me. :)
