Does the sponge waste makeup?

I would say no, but it's really not a good fit for any face since it's so thick and feels heavy on your face. I would compare it to a car sponge without all the extra holes. Threw mine away. :(

well any sponge would absorb a little. you probably wouldn't wanna dip it the product e.g.. liquid foundation.If you really wanna get something that lasts you a lil longer and doesn't cost as much as the real one I suggest you go for the real techniques beauty blender. These ones honestly are for makeup artists who have different clients.

It does not. The makeup does not absorb into it much. And, because of the smooth finish the sponge provides, I find that less makeup is actually needed (I use a liquid foundation, for reference).

To me it wasteful. I probably would get better with practice,but this was a reward gift to myself and was disappointed that instructions was not sent.

To me it was wasteful, since I did not have instructions. But, with practice would get better at applying makeup, that is if your very tight budget allows as reward gift to yourself.

No, not the scrubby ones. They have a sponge that is, but it's just a regular sponge, without a scrubby side.

I would say this is where it begins to fail. Burned on food or use of abrasives like Barkeeper's Friend caused mine to break up more quickly. The sponge didn't really last very long.

I used the sponge that came inside the container. Initially the sponge became very saturated with the cleaning solution. I soon discovered that rinsing the sponge with water solved that problem. After applying I used a clean cloth to remove residue and shine. Hope this helps.

Yes, you do. After each use, I put a little dish soap on my sponge and do a quick wipe down. Every couple of days, I use Bar Keepers Friend and a sponge. There are several formulations for Bar Keepers friend (powder and liquid) so just make sure you buy the correct one. If you decide to buy this sink, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!

The sponge is used for aiding in moisturizer application. It helps the skin absorb the moisturizer better.

No, the sponge is very soft. I think it must have some chemical in it. On the internet, they say spray first with Clorox Clean-up. Let that sit a minute then use the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It really cleans the grunk off of a stainless steel sink.

NO. It does not exfoliate. Buy something else like a dry sea sponge or one particular to exfoliation.

No, but if they do get a few spots I just use a green and yellow 3m sponge and freshen them up. They are weighted beautifully. I love this set.

I am not sure. It is just like the image and there is a sponge included but it is not a good one.

Mine came with a little sponge in it, yes. I presume you can cut off a small part of a bigger sponge and use that f you don't feel like returning the item.

More or less Ive been using the same sponge for the last half year with no problems. The 2nd sponge I use on my heavy days to switch out. Not sure of the end life, i guess until it's not as absorbant. My sponges still look new to me.

The black color did not affect my foundation, however I did have to wash/rinse the blender several times under running water to prevent bits of the sponge from coming off on my face. They were super tiny pieces but stopped once I did this. I have never used the pink sponge so can't answer if one is better than the other. I do have some foundation that stained the black & doesn't wash out.

Basically put on like makeup only lighter and used a makeup sponge to smooth and even out. Only tried it once because it made my legs feel dirty and look fake so I am not an expert because I never used it again.

It will linger on but faintly, lose it's smell. They say the best things to use it on is a cotton ball or cardboard.(which I do and it works)The sponge will still carry it's odor, and be evident each time you use it. Hope this helps.

yes it does, the sponge comes with a string. If you use it only for the recommended time, like 6 months or so and keep it in a clean and fresh place, it won't get bacteria anyway. Hope it helps!

You can put it on and leave it or rinse it off. It's surprisingly decent at dissolving makeup but for instance if you a clean face, it could act as a leave on treatment if you wanted
