What it is:An edgeless, reusable, high-definition cosmetic sponge applicator in the pro-favored shade of black.What it does: Made with the same exclusive material as the original, Beautyblender is now available in black—the color best-loved by pros. It's perfect for darker-toned products that would be difficult to rinse clean from a lighter-colored applicator. Use it with complexion products, long-wear makeup, and self-tanners for flawless results.What it is formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Sulfates- PhthalatesWhat else you need to know: The aqua-activated™ sponge grows to about twice its size and absorbs minimal product, so your favorite formula lands on your complexion, not your sponge. When wet, the super-soft material provides an even, smooth blend and bounce. The large, rounded surface area ensures a quick application while the contoured tip offers precision. Beautyblender has chosen to use non-toxic, water-soluble dyes. For this reason, your Beautyblender may shed dye for the first couple of washes—similar to a pair of blue jeans. Once you squeeze the water out of the Beautyblender, the excess dye is removed as well. The dye does not transfer to the skin.This product is hand-finished in the USA.
