Makeup sponges have long been touted as the secret weapon to makeup artists, but there is more to it than just picking up any old kind at the drugstore. Here is some info on the most common forms of sponges for makeup:
Round Makeup Sponges:
For those who want supreme coverage, perhaps you are having trouble with your skin and you need a thicker application, and these sponges make putting on foundation quick and easy. To use this kind of sponge just roll and pat the sponge on the areas where you want the makeup to cover. TIP: Large round sponges are perfect for applying body makeup.
Rectangle Makeup Sponges:
These are most commonly used with compact or dry powder. You should choose those with rounded edges as they will give a softer blend with no hard lines or streaks.
Diamond Makeup Sponges
These are the perfect makeup sponges for those who wear a regular amount of makeup each day. With the corners (again choose ones with rounded ones) you can really get into the dips of your face like corners of the eyes and such and the flatter parts are perfect for cheeks. These are great for blending liquid as well as cream foundations.
Wedge Makeup Sponges
These are probably the most common of all makeup sponges and they are generally made out of latex either natural or synthetic. They allow for excellent contouring, much like the diamond shaped one.
