Gone are the days of scurrying off, saying "I need to put my face on!" and returning an hour later with an obvious mask of makeup. Most of us now prefer a soft, easy application that gently accentuates our favorite features. The best way to achieve that coveted natural look is to lovingly blend your makeup, dabbing away any distracting (and embarrassing) edges. This Aesthetica Cosmetics Beauty Sponge Blender lets you effortlessly apply powder, cream or liquid makeup, and it's on sale for just $4 (down from $12) — that's nearly 70% off!

Why is this a good deal?

Save big time with this $4 deal on the top-rated Aesthetica Cosmetics Beauty Sponge Blender. To put this in perspective, this popular blender costs $16 less than the well-known Beautyblender sponge, which sells for $20. That's a whopping 75% cheaper. Moreover, Beautyblender doesn't even have the pro-preferred black shade in stock right now, so you'll want to snap up this $4 black beauty while you can.

Why do I need this?

Your face is a work of art and only the best tools should touch it. This simple, thoughtfully designed, latex-free sponge helps you apply both wet and dry cosmetics — concealer, foundation, cream blush, eyeshadow, highlighter, bronzer, etc. The shape makes it easy to hold and the tip allows for precision when needed. Because it is black, it's easy to see at a glance how much product you're putting on your skin.

To use with powder, take the nonporous, vegan sponge, dab into makeup and apply to face. That's it! For cream and liquid application, wet it first. (It'll expand in size and become softer, more flexible.) After, simply handwash with a mild soap. Should any staining occur, it'll be less apparent thanks to the black hue. Best of all, you can reuse this sponge for months to come!

What reviewers say

Over 33,000 five-star reviewers, including several makeup professionals, agree: This multitasking blender is a winner!

"I'm a professional makeup artist, and this is the best sponge!" advised an expert. "I purchased this because my current Beautyblender is starting to fall apart. ... The Aesthetica sponge is hands-down superior. The texture is fluffier, it holds up better to continued use and it blends product in much more smoothly."

"Beautyblender dupe," echoed another pro. "Love this product! I'm a makeup artist and I have tried many beauty sponges but this right here is the exact dupe of the Beautyblender for half the price. ... From now on, this will be the only one I will buy!!!"

"This product is insane for the price," added another. "I am a cosmetologist and worked at Ulta for three years. I’ve tried my share of sponges. I don’t like sponges that are so dense they sound like a basketball is bouncing off your face. This one isn’t the case. I’ve been using it for like two months now, and it still looks great."

Of course, non-pros love it too!

"Improved my makeup game," raved a five-star fan. "Old-school here…I only recently started using beauty blenders to apply my foundation. My complexion looks so much better after application with these and I feel I use up much less makeup than before. I wash after each use and air dry, my first sponge is still in perfect shape after months of use."

This reusable latex-free sponge lets you apply powder, cream or liquid makeup with ease, and the black allows you to see exactly what you're applying.
