My thoughts on Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge

I had been a regular user of beauty blender and used that stuff for more than a year. I’ve finished 2 in the past and ordered another one too during black Friday sale as a backup. Don’t know what went in my mind and I thought of ordering one Real Techniques sponge too. Initially, I had no plans of using it but then one fine day when I was about to open my new beauty blender I was like “hey, wait” let’s try this sponge today. It’s not all that expensive so,it’s ok if I don’t end up liking it. That day I used it for the first time and I absolutely loved the way my foundation applied with it and how well my foundation stayed put the whole day.

Brushes started making the foundation look streaky on my face due to winters. My skin gets dry during winters and it yearns for moisture all the time. This stuff was God sent during winters this year. I am a fan now but I am currently in the process of testing its longevity as compared to the beauty blender as BB lasted for about 8 months straight without dying. A lot of people also said that RT sponge soaks up a lot of product whereas bb doesn’t but that’s not right. It soaks as much product as beauty blender does. I didn’t notice any obvious difference whatsoever.
