I have had my eye on it for SO long.
I use the Real Techniques Expert Face Brush or my fingers, it works really well but I wonder if the beauty blender is better..

The only time I use my fingers is the first time I use a foundation just so I can see how thick/thin it is & how well it applies. Other then that I hate using my fingers.
I love my beauty blender. It blends so much better & quicker. & when you're done your face looks more flawless.

Oh and I prefer the beauty blender :) for some reason I can never get the look I want with a brush.. However I prefer mineral foundation..which obviously only works with a brush lol

Maggie, I apologize if it bothered you, I fixed it! I'm really leaning towards the beauty blender...do you use a kabuki for mineral foundation or a flat top style brush? xo

I just... don't get the beauty blender. piece of sponge for thirty bucks? I don't know. I really like my stippling brush. I'm not saying I'd never try the beauty blender, but it would have to just fall into my hands. I'd rather spend my money on something else.

Beauty blender gives great finish. Try applying with foundation brush then use a buffing brush in a circular motion, gives good coverage with natural look

beauty blender. I also like the flat top E.L.F brush, I forget what the actual name for it is. Complexion brush maybe? But the beauty blender works for everything. Foundation and concealer plus gets in those tiny parts you would normally need a small precision brush for. So the blender takes place for atleast 3 brushes, for me atleast. Check out amazon for one

I don't like the beauty blender because I feel it absorbs too much product, even used damp. I feel fingers offer better blending and smoothing. Brushes can leave brushstrokes on the skin.

I love using my stippling brush for the 'airbrushed' effect! But I have had my eye on a beauty blender for a while now! Is it worth trying?

Do you find that your beauty blender absorbs product?
