Tutorial: Blender Sponge Application

I finally did a video on how I apply foundation with the blender sponge.
I introduced this sponge in one of my earlier posts. This is not the real "beauty blender", but it's a $4 dupe that works exactly the same. Why spend $25 on something that you can get cheaper at Ulta?
If you have any questions, feel free to comment below :-)

Before you begin:
- dampen the sponge with water {this way it doesn't absorb much product}
- squeeze foundation onto your hand to warm it up {this allows for a smoother application}

Face/Coverage Technique:
 - After applying your foundation to the rounded end of the sponge, lightly bounce the sponge on your skin starting in the middle blending outward. (Beings at 0:26)

Eyes/Nose Technique:
- Apply foundation to the pointed tip on the sponge, then press and roll around your eyes, nose, and anywhere you want extra coverage. Also use the press and roll technique around the outer edge of your face to better blend your foundation. (Begins at 2:33)

Powder Application Technique:
- Use the same bouncing technique as you would for the regular coverage using liquid foundation.
