Your makeup will only take you so far; if you want a truly flawless look, you need to have the right tools at-hand. Any makeup pro will tell you that it’s super important to have professional makeup tools, and at the top of that list are blenders. From start to finish, blenders can be used to apply foundation, eye blush, bronzers, and eyeshadow, and they can help even out your final look. Makeup blenders should be easy to use and long-lasting, too. Here are some of the best blenders to help you create makeup effects to put your best face forward. —Jennifer Cox
The Original Beautyblender Makeup Sponge ($20) is the Mack daddy of makeup blenders. Its design is edgeless for seamless blending and it can be used over and over again. No wonder this product won the Allure Best of Beauty award 14 times!
The Total Coverage Angled Sponge from Sephora Canada ($16) is a latex-free sponge that is made with 60% plant-based materials. It is ideal for targeted coverage, such as under eye blending, as well as setting your makeup. It also comes in a recyclable, ventilated base that doubles as a drying stand.
The three things we love about the Kosas Revealer Dual-Ended Makeup Blender ($19) is that it’s super soft, easy to clean, and it can be used damp or dry. The unique dual-ended sponge has a fine point to reach even the tiniest corners of eyes, and the larger end blends seamlessly and quickly. It’s also made from latex-free foam.
Yves Rocher’s Foundation Sponge ($12) is designed for both liquid and creamy textures, and from foundation to concealer, you’ll always get a flawless look. Its pointed tip allows precise application, and the rounded sides help you achieve a natural and buildable complexion. We also love it because it’s easy and comfortable to use.
The Shaper Sponge from Tarte ($24) is a latex-free makeup blending sponge that flawlessly buffs the face for a longwearing, luminous finish. The flat sides are perfect for blending and contouring, and the precision chiseled tip fits perfectly into hard-to-reach spots (like under eyes and around the nose) for 360 degrees of beautiful coverage.
