REAL TECHNIQUES Miracle Complexion Sponge, Assorted Color

I recently started using this beauty blender as part of my daily makeup routine, and I’ve been really happy with how it performs. The texture is super soft and bouncy, which makes blending foundation and concealer really easy. It gives a smooth, even finish without soaking up too much product, which I love because I hate wasting makeup.I use it damp, and it expands nicely without feeling too squishy. It’s also great for applying cream blush or even powder in those harder-to-reach spots. Cleaning it has been pretty straightforward too, which is always a bonus.That said, after a few uses, I did notice a bit of staining that didn’t completely come out, even after washing. It’s not a dealbreaker, just something to be aware of if you’re picky about keeping your tools looking new.Overall, it’s a solid beauty blender that does the job well and feels great to use. Definitely worth picking up if you want a reliable option for blending out your makeup.

Best beauty blenders I’ve used, nice quality, wash well, and apply foundation beautifully. Good price

I purchased the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge as a more budget-friendly alternative to the Beauty Blender, which is quite pricey, especially given the need to replace sponges regularly for hygiene. This sponge is slightly smaller but just as soft, making it easy to use and perfect for getting into the face’s crevices. It gives a smooth, brush-stroke-free application for liquid and cream products and creates a natural, dewy finish. I’m impressed and would definitely buy it again.Pros:• Affordable option compared to similar high-end sponges• Soft texture that’s gentle on the skin• Applies foundation smoothly without brush marks• Works well for both liquid and cream makeupCons:• Slightly smaller than some other makeup sponges, though not a big drawback• Needs regular replacement for hygiene (like any sponge)

I've moved between fingers and brushes for foundation application, swearing by the efficacy of both in their turn, but recently my skin has been doing the unthinkable. After years of battling with oily skin it has decided to become combination, but as my body has never been well behaved it's combination oily/dry, not oily/normal leaving me with a battle against flakiness.This new dryness means that foundation can get 'caught' around the tiny dry bits and look 'rough' and patchy, so as well as changing moisturisers (which has helped) on the advice of youtube gurus I thought I'd give a beauty blender type product a go. I wasn't willing to pay the price of the actual 'beauty blender' (from about £12 and more for a small piece of sponge... I don't think so!), I was even a bit doubtful about the £4ish cost of this product but I'm glad I got it.The technique used to apply foundation with this makes a big difference if you have dry skin. Hand application, or brushes use a sweeping, or buffing motion which further lifts the tiny particles of dry or rough skin making any issues with product 'gathering' around the area more visible. The press and or roll action using this 'scuffs' up the surface of the skin far less and gives a nice sheer application which can be built up further if required. The shape allows it to get into all the little nooks and crannies around the nose etc easily. I don't usually bother moistening the sponge as I tend to use silicone based primers and water doesn't work particularly well with silicones, but it works well with my water based foundation. Even when dry it doesn't seem to wastefully absorb excessive amounts of product. I'll probably continue to alternate using this with fingers and or brushes depending on foundation, mood and condition of skin, but I can recommend this product as a very good complexion sponge. I can't compare it with the beauty blender, obviously, as I've never tried the other.

I absolutely love the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Makeup Sponge! It’s hands down one of the best beauty sponges I’ve ever used. The full-cover design helps achieve a smooth, airbrushed finish with minimal effort. The sponge’s unique shape is perfect for both precise application and blending, making it versatile for everything from foundation to concealer.What I really appreciate is how soft and bouncy it feels on the skin. It doesn't absorb too much product, which means I use less foundation, and the finish is still flawless. I also love how it works well both wet and dry—dampening it gives a dewy, natural finish, while using it dry helps me build more coverage.It’s easy to clean, durable, and the price point is great for the quality you get. Whether you’re a makeup pro or just starting out, this sponge is a game-changer. Highly recommend!

lovely to use, blends really well, does swallow makeup but worth it, gives lovely coverage- though that could just be my foundation. thank you- would definitely buy again

This sponge is great for applying your foundation. Makes an even application every time. Easy to wash in the washer or under a warm tap. Great product. Would recommend

Wow, I am so pleased to have this item, it is so easy to use and really applies your liquid makeup so easily.
