If you've never used a beauty blender before, you're missing out. It's the easiest way to apply your foundation, moisturizer, and even SPF without leaving any lines. It's a miracle product that won't cost you much, so you should go out and buy one ASAP. If you're not sure how they work, here are a few tips on how to use your beauty blender for a flawless foundation:

1. Wet Your Beauty Blender with Water

Wet Your Beauty Blender with Water The first step to using your beauty blender is to soak it in water. It doesn't matter if you place it in a bucket of water or run it underneath a faucet, as long as you let it soak up as much water as possible. The material acts like a sponge, so the more water it contains, the bigger and fluffier it will look.

2. Squeeze out the Excess Water

Squeeze out the Excess Water Once you get your beauty blender wet, you should wait a few moments, and then squeeze out the excess water. While you want your beauty blender to be saturated at first, you don't want water to be dripping from it while you're applying your makeup. That would just make a mess.

3. Put Your Foundation on the Back of Your Hand

Put Your Foundation on the Back of Your Hand Grab your foundation and place it on the back of your hand or on a paper plate--whatever you usually do in order to get it out of its container. Of course, if you're not worried about making a mess, you could just skip the next step by placing the foundation on your beauty blender in the first place.

4. Dab the Beauty Blender into the Foundation

Dab the Beauty Blender into the Foundation Now that your foundation is out of the container, you want to dab the large end of your beauty blender into the product. There's no reason to put the product on the sides of your blender or even on the small tip, because it won't be used. You're going to stick to using the large end for now.

"Enhancing your beauty doesn't always mean going for the glossy look. More ladies now see the allure of a shine-free finish. With the right tools and techniques, you can also achieve a flawless, subtle glow. Learn how to master this trend by following these incredible matte makeup tutorials. Enhance your natural complexion without the unnecessary flash."

5. Bounce the Beauty Blender along Your Skin

Bounce the Beauty Blender along Your Skin The technique that you use is incredible important. You don't want to drag your beauty blender along your face. You want to bounce it along your skin, like a ball. It might feel funny at first, but it's the best way to get your foundation all over your face without leaving any lines.

6. Use the Pointed Tip for Small Spaces

Use the Pointed Tip for Small Spaces Beauty blenders have one large end and one small tip for a reason. While the large end should be used to cover your cheeks and forehead with foundation, you should use the small tip to get the difficult to reach areas beneath your eyes and around your nose. That way, you're never going to miss a spot.

7. Drag Your Beauty Blender to Erase Mistakes

Drag Your Beauty Blender to Erase Mistakes If you mess up your makeup somehow, you should stop bouncing your beauty blender and start dragging it. When you drag it, it'll act like an eraser, which means it can make your blush or foundation lines disappear. Isn't that convenient?

Beauty blenders are cheap and easy to use, but they can change your life. You'll never have to worry about whether your foundation looks natural again, because it always will! Have you ever used a beauty blender before? Do you love them or hate them?

Love using my beauty blender. Works like a dream on my face , covering every nook n corner n not creating or settling or accentuating any fine lines.

Well I believe I am older then most that have posted. I love using the blender. I use it with my foundation and it helps with coverage, but I must admit I have great skin for my age and don't have blemishes.

I use the real techniques blender sponge and it works the same to me

I love my beauty blender! I got mine at Winners.

Yeah I reach for my real techniques sponge more than my beauty blender and I like it more because it's half the price

I gave in and bought a beauty blender honestly I was right all along isn't that great. Next time follow your intuition

Are these blender hypoallergenic and you don't get to toss them to the trash? Do these collect bacteria when you wash over and over ?

Sephora, has them but they are expensive. I get them from my beauty supply store. I don't really use them. I use a foundation/concealor brush to apply my base. I try and wash my makeup implements once a week.

me too..

I love my Beauty Blender!
