So I'm planning to purchase a Beauty Blender, but I don't know if to purchase Mac's or Sephora's beauty blender?
And how exactly do you use it?o:
Will it work well with my Lancome Idole Teint 24h oil-free foundation and my oily skin?
Do I need to keep my beauty blender damp to give me full and flawless coverage?
Should I stipple my foundation or stipple and buff it on my skin before using the beauty blender?

Thanks for the answers in advance babes ^.^.

I have the walmart dupe and works nice. You basically bounce it all around your face until you get the desired coverage. Keep in mind though that it will make a full coverage a little more on the. medium coverage. I've heard hundreds of girls rave about the bb and they all use different foundation. As long as it is liquid foundation (: the stippling and buffing part isn't necessary

I've got the original beauty blender and I love it. I also use the real techniques sponge and it works just as good.
put it under water and squeeze it til its damp and big
yes it works with any foundation and you can use the other end (smaller end) to highlight under the eyes.
I usually dab the foundation on first then blend it out (tapping motions)

The original beautyblender is amazing. I have tried the Real Techniques one and it's not as good in my opinion. It's more scratchy than the BB and makes my foundation spotty.

I use the original beauty blender from sephora and it works great! Like Jacqlyn said I wet it and then squeeze out the excess water. I love the way it applys my foundation! I use naked skin foundation with it.

I'm sure you will. I am not in anyway a professional when it comes to makeup. I'm pretty much a beginner and I got it down. It actually makes it easier && more simple to apply foundation without streaking then a brush in my opinion.

I use mine just like Jacqlyn described and it works wonderfully, just make sure it's damp, I've heard complaints from people who don't understand this and it just soaks up all their product. Another tip is to get the original. Trust me once you buy it the "dupes" will seem like a waste of money, even before I got the original I hated the "dupes"
