A makeup sponge brush designed to blend, blur and diffuse.

I'm not a big fan of sponge brushes. I find them hard to clean. The blend was nice and the small size of the sponge made it easy to get underneath my eyes. These brushes work well but I do not like the process to clean these brushes. To get a good blend I recommend wetting the sponge in water, or spraying it with setting spray. This does work but I live in a very humid area and sponges do not tend to dry very well. The sponge is also connected to the handle of the brush making it hard to dry the sponge completely as you cannot air out the bottom. I find that sponge brushes can begin to mould quite easily or they gain a very weird smell. If you have a dry area to store the brush or live in a dry area this might be a great tool for you, but personally I thought it was just okay.

As a freelance makeup artist and certified all around cosmetic and skincare junkie, I am always looking to try brushes that have multiple uses. This one does just that! It is the perfect length to fit comfortably in the hand. The top of the brush has a circular sponge that is very soft to the touch. The first day I used this I was hoping to use a creamy product, but unfortunately was running a bit late that day so decided to dip in my bronzing powder to "draw on" a cheekbone. I was extremely surprised! It glided on the skin even with powder! As a woman in her mid 40's, bringing everything "up" on the face is crucial. This enabled a perfectly angled contour line and buffed out to a subtle hue of bronzer. It stayed all day and looked soft and perfected!

I rarely buy new brushes but I was excited to try out this Ciele Cosmetics The Sponge Brush especially for my concealer around my eyes. The Sponge Brush did not disappoint. I love the little mushroom sponge to help blu out my undereye concealer a spot blemishes. I tried using the brush dry and I also tried using it damp. It worked beautifully with the concealer using both techniques. I have used it around my hairline, my chin, around the creases of my nose my entire eye area. Ciele Cosmetics The Sponge Brushis perfect for smaller areas of the face so you can really blend out any makeup you're using including your highlighters, foundation, blush and concealers. It's easy to wash and doesn't soak up a lot of your makeup. I think this little brush is gonna be a hit!
