Oh my goodness I'm freaking out. I just saw a video of a girl who found bugs in her beautyblender. Has anyone had issues with this? I don't want to go run off and cut mine up just to find nothing!! Or throw it away but I'm afraid to use it now. I wash it weekly as well. Has anyone had issues with bugs or mold in their beautyblenders?

Well now I'm freaking out too! Me and bugs don't get along and I have two beauty blenders that I use religiously. Did she say where she stored them? Because bugs do like dark & sometimes moist areas along with mold.

Yeah I just watched the video & it was actually hilarious but I also kinda want to throw both of mine out. The story says they're trying to do a full investigation and so on.
She did say it was newer so maybe the bugs just crept into that shipment or were already in the warehouse?

As for freaking out - No need - With anything you buy there will always be a risk that something can be wrong with it. Just take good care of you makeup sponge and get a new one every 2 month or how ever long they say you can keep it for.

I posted about this earlier because I flipped when I saw it! But after reading all these ladies awesome thoughts and careful examining both my beauty blenders and washing them thoroughly, I'm at ease (:
