A makeup sponge is a tool used to apply liquid foundation, powder, or other makeup products. When using a wet sponge, the cream or liquid product is applied by dabbing it on the skin and blending outwards in circular motions with the fingers. The most common type of makeup sponges are made of synthetic foam material that can be washed and reused, but some people prefer natural materials as wool felt for their properties like absorbing excess oil from the skin without drawing moisture from the face. There are different shapes and sizes of makeup sponges available, including rounded domes, flat-edged squares, and triangular wedges, making them easier to use in specific areas such as around the eyes or nose.<\/p>\n
