Beauty blenders, since they debuted into the beauty industry have been used by professionals as well as amateurs alike. Unlike brushes it doesn’t require so much effect, it’s easy to clean carry and use. Through the finish beauty blenders give you is seamless, with a little effort and right techniques you can even achieve the much-hyped airbrushed look with this simple tool.

# Make sure you get the original beauty blender

Since the beauty blender has become a staple in our make up kits, many companies have come up with similar blenders at a lower price point. A normal sponge absorbs a lot of your face products which is such a waste of the product, on the other side beauty blender is made of specific spongs with smaller pores which helps in allowing the product to settle into the skin evenly rather than absorbing it.

# Wet the blender

Yeah, you heard me right, before using the blender make sure the blender is wet or rather damp. All I do is spray some water on the blender and squeeze out the extra. This will allow you to get a natural, airbrushed finish. When it comes to blenders how you use them matters.

# Method of application

If you are someone who is used to applying makeup using a brush then initially blending with the blender could be tricky. While using a blender instead of rubbing it in on the skin, one has to play the products in badding motions. This will allow the product to settle well into the skin giving a natural skin-like finish.

# Proper utilization of the blender

The beauty blender is shaped like an egg for a reason. I start by dotting the foundation all over my face using the pointed end of the sponge. The rounded bottom is then used to dab the product all over the face. For the inner corners of your eyes, you can use the pointed tip to get the product distributed evenly.

# Concealer application

One of the most common mistakes I notice people doing is rub in the concealer with the sponge, till would not only bring out the fine lines on your face but also allow half the product to be absorbed by the blender. The key to applying concealer with the blender and to keep imperfections concealed, is again, dabbing. Unlike the foundation, be gentler with the badding motion when you put on concealer. The more you dab the more product blends. So make sure you dab the concealer just enough so there you don’t see any discoloration.

# Contour like a pro

If you want to avoid looking like the joker and get rid of that harsh dark contour line on both sides of your face, then try blending your contour with a blender. Make sure you dab well at the sharp edges of the line os that you get a natural chiseled look.

# Blush

Next time you apply blush, especially liquid and cream blushes, try blending in on your apples using the rounded bottom of the blender. Trust me, guys you will be surprised by the even and natural look you get.

# Body make up

Apart from just your face beauty blender is also being used to experts to conceal and even out various body parts. For example, try buffing your self-tanner using a blender. Your tan would look more natural than ever.

# Dry skin

If you have dry skin and make up brushed bring out your patches or irritate your skin, try blenders(3). They can be your best friend. Apply some facial oil on the blender instead of water and then apply your make up as usual. Tada.!!! Glowing, dewy-looking skin instantly.
