If you have one how much do you like it? Is it worth all that money for a sponge? Deciding whether I should spend a gift card I have on that or just buy something else at Sephora. I currently use BB cream which is why I've been interested in purchasing one.

Honestly it's not worth the 26$ in my opinion. I have one from the drugstore that was 5$ and I get the same effect with it!

I think it's worth it. I tried so many drug store dupes and can't find one that's worth it. I now own 4 beauty blenders lol I honestly love it.

Personally I've tried both the regular BB and several off brands. It really is all the same sponge. I'd seriously just buy something else at Sephora and stop at s local drugstore to pick up a knockoff brand. The one of have right now is from forever 21 and you literally cannot tell the difference between it and the BB. A friend of mine who claimed you HAD to spend the money in the BB because it was "better" was actually filled by the forever 21 sponge with the exact same shape. It really is simply all about the shape and now that other brands have been able to manufacture them for more affordable prices it still boggles my mind that anyone would spend over $5 for the brand name BB. I guess everyone just wants to say they have the real deal. In the end, it truly does not matter. Yea, a very cheap dollar store knock off may not be the same quality of material but a $3-$5 one at any drugstore or even a store such as forever 21 is going to have a dupe works exactly the same.

I think its worth it. I love mine and at sephora its $20 instead of $26.

If you don't want to spend the $20+ on a beauty blender, try the real techniques sponge. It's like $6 and pretty much the exact same thing. I wouldn't go as far as the people above me as a lot of drugstore brands soak up more product or the finish just doesn't look as nice but the real techniques ones is the best dupe you'll find.

I have it and it's just ok. I think my real techniques on is better than the BB. definitely not worth the extra money in my opinion.

The real techniques dupe is good, but personally I think it's worth it. To me it works better than anything else.

Not worth it, way too over hyped lol.
It's $26 but you end up having to replace it.

You can get the same "airbrushed" look when you're patting it in.
It's just certain tools are easier to pat on/stipple. I get the same results with a stippling brush.
Most people stipple then buff in but in order to get that airbrushed look you're supposed to just keep stippling.
