A beauty blender is a soft, sponge-like makeup tool designed to help apply and blend makeup products such as foundation, concealer, and creams. Its unique egg or teardrop shape allows for precision in application, especially in hard-to-reach areas like under the eyes or around the nose. When dampened, the beauty blender expands and becomes more flexible, creating a smooth, airbrushed finish without absorbing too much product. The rounded base is used for larger areas of the face, while the pointed tip is ideal for precise blending around smaller areas. The result is a flawless, natural-looking complexion with even coverage.
A puff, typically a soft, round, fabric cushion, is commonly used for applying setting powder, loose powder, or powder foundation. Puffs are designed to press the powder into the skin, providing a more matte, long-lasting finish. They are often used for setting makeup and ensuring it stays in place throughout the day. The gentle pressing motion helps prevent the product from settling into fine lines or pores, providing a smooth, velvety look. Puffs are available in different materials, such as cotton, velvet, or microfiber, each offering a different texture and feel for a variety of makeup application needs.
