Thank you Chick Advisor for this opportunity to try the blender. It is really a great product that helps me to apply correctly my fundation. It is really easy to use and the explanation gives are clear and easy to follow.

I have, and use, the original beauty blender so I was excited to receive this to try - and compare. I was very impressed with this product!! I like the shape of it a bit better and I like that it is easier to hold - the beauty blender leaks water/foundation onto my hand because I have to hold the bottom of the actual sponge, but not with this product!

Although I gave it a rinse, I haven't given it a deep clean, and I have only used it 3 times so it will be interesting to see how it lasts into the future - my beauty blender has lasted over a year with regular cleaning and use! Even if this doesn't last as long, at half the price of the original beauty blender, this will likely be the one I repurchase if it can continue to hold up.

I received the Maybelline New York Dream Blender as a free sample to revue. It took some getting used to (I normally just use the wedges) but I think that the Dream Blender is going to be a very handy tool in my makeup kit. The sponge is high quality dense foam and does a nice job of spreading the foundation. Overall, I liked it.

Thanks ChickAdvisor for selecting me for this trial!

I love this blending brush that I received for free to test. I have never seen a blender of this shape before but its very unique and does a great job with blending along the eyes, nose and chin. I felt it did a great job of blending it all over without looking streaky or blotchy

I loved this blender because it was different from the usual sponges, due to its handle. It really gives a good grip!

This sponge is dense, and the foundation does not fit much in it, which is good because it helps to give a more opaque application on the skin. If you want a more natural finish, simply wet it before use!

The price of this product is very reasonable, so I certainly recommend it to all my friends.

I received this product for free for the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I love the idea of having a sponge with a handle so that the application isn't as messy as it can be with other sponges, however I don't feel like this product helped the application of my foundation (I used it both wet and dry). Not only did it absorb a lot of the foundation (so you have to use more foundation as a result), but it also took me longer to cover all of the areas because the sponge is kind of small. This sponge will probably be good for those who want a really light application of foundation, but not ideal for those like me who want more coverage. The reason why I'm giving it 4/5 stars is because I actually love this blender for my under-eye concealer! Due to its small size and pointy end, I was able to cover hard-to-reach areas around my eyes. I don't like a heavy application of my under-eye concealer so the sponge was perfect because it does absorb some of the product. I also used the sponge to put on my under-eye brightener/setting powder. I would recommend this product for your under-eye concealer/powder and hard-to-reach areas around your nose and eyes/brows.

I tried the blender over top the Maybelline Dream Velvet Foundation. I liked it after a few uses as I initially had a little bit of a struggle with the application. It does help further blend in some of the dark spots and imperfections on your face however again a little goes a long way. I found if I used to much it gummed up and I just had to wipe it off....after a few tries I managed to find the happy medium and found less is best.

Excellent product but on the high end for pricing. I really liked that you could apply foundation and not get it all over your hands. It was also great for contouring as it gives you much more control vs a normal sponge.

I received this product for free to review from ChickAdvisor. I really like this blender. I found the handle slightly awkward at times, but it does exactly as it states, and beautifully blends the foundation well into the skin. The price is more than what I would have spent on it. I was glad to have been able to give this a review as it's a great product just slightly out of my price range

Thanks to chickadvisor I got to try this with the dream velvet foundation. I loved this blender it was easy to work with and blended in my foundation perfectly around the eyes and nose. I tried also wetting it like they said and it actually wasn't necessary. It just ruined the foundation so I recommend keeping it dry. I've bought other expensive beauty blenders and honestly this works just as great and has a handle which I love so the makeup doesn't get all over my hands.
