What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The description also says the sponge can be used dry for full coverage, which differs from the separate light-to-medium coverage claim. Treat coverage as use-dependent rather than a guaranteed result. The maker recommends replacing it every 1–3 months.

Customer feedback reports a soft feel, effective blending and a smooth-looking finish, including use with liquid and powder foundation.
