How to Clean the Beauty Blender

How often do you clean your makeup sponge? I use to barley clean it even weekly until I found out how bad it was for my skin. The thought of my favorite beauty tool giving me breakouts never really occurred to me until I realized just how much dirt, makeup, and dead skin cells makeup sponges absorb. After I learned how to clean a beauty blender it became apart of my makeup routine and it can for you too!

My research for cleaning my sponge started because I am obsessed with my beauty blender. I love this little sponge. My beauty blender and I are never apart. We are together every morning and if it wasn’t for this magical little tool, I would be lost. O.K, maybe not lost but I would be so sad. This sponge has magical powers. My concealer and foundation never looks better and I love that it fits into every small crevice of my face, especially around my nose and corners of my eyes. The only negative I can think of is that it gets dirty very quickly.
