Not like those silicone 'sponges!"
Skeptical but wanted to try. Why would Revlon make a version of what we all collectively noted as a terrible idea with those silicone 'sponges'. Revlon came in for the win. I love brushes - Rephr, Wayne Goss, Sonia G, etc. I use a BB or Real Techniques Miracle Sponge. but sponges are a nightmare to clean, I can't be bothered to walk to the bathroom to wet them after I sit down to do my makeup and they break because of my rough handling while washing and/or my nails. The pictures included are AFTER good skin prep and the Glow Recipe sunscreen. I applied: undereye concealer, Hollywood Flawless filter, LA Girl concealers as a brighter and as a contour , a matte pink lipstick as a cream blush Dynessa Myricks duo chrome liquid eye shadow. ( a REAAAALY difficult product, needs a learning curve ) The only time I used my fingers to pat out something more was edge of one side of my blush. I use the 'pushing' technique I learnt from Nikkie La Rose. I could never really do it with a brush because I love to 'paint' and swipe. Pushing the product instead of swiping is a great technique, especially for my matured skin. This silicone-jelly is really good for pushing and bouncing in place. tap tap tap tap. To blend around the edges keep tapping and swipe a little bit - as if you were using a colour pencil to blend in your coloring book. When you know you know :) It works excellently. I wouldn't do my foundation with this, it's too slow but great for small controlled areas. I am holding onto my sponges for a few more months to see if my excitement to use something 'new' dies out. If not, I am throwing my sponges out. Thank you Revlon.

Useful
It’s too big to fit in my daily makeup pouch in my bag tho, wished it had been a little smaller

Very good for lipstick
I would not try using that for the whole face, you can get those bigger jelly pads for that. Otherwise it will take forever. It does work for eye make up, but I used too much force every time and my eyes would hurt afterwards. But I love it for lipstick/chapstick, for that it's perfect. Also for covering of little spots on my face. I think it would work for bronzer/blush as well. Quality is super nice and easy to clean.

Waste of time, money.
I find foundation is very hard to apply with this. You will do a better job with a sponge, brush or your fingers. It is a great idea because the tips have a cover and not only you don’t get your fingers dirty with makeup, you can take the applicator with you on the go without a mess, but alas, it is useless. I am going to try it with other products, but foundation is out of question.

Perfect for soft application and detail
For concealer, foundation right on the lines Best use for me is for applying creams under eyes and crow's feet around eye and right in the the lines down by your lips, eg your retinoid creams Must give credit to Laura Rae beauty in you tube that pointed this tool out

Works well!
I had never seen this tool before but decided to take a chance. I just love it!! Helps the concealer glide on your skin without pulling on your skin. I highly recommend this tool to everyone

The metal has nickel.
Do you have a nickel allergy and are allergic to cheap jewelry? I would not use this. I tested it with Nickel Alert and the metal that is all over this makeup blender has nickel. Putting it right by your eye and face will give you a nickel, ezcema rash just like jewelry after a few days if you are allergic and many of us are.

On the Fence
I'm on the fence about how to assess this product. On the one hand, it's well-made. I like that each side has a different size applicator and that each has a sloped shape. I like the idea of using silicone to apply and blend makeup. In full disclosure, I don't usually wear foundation or blush. However, I saw in the description the suggestion of using this item with eye color. I often need to smudge my eyeliner/shadow, so I ordered this tool for that purpose. It isn't working well with any of my eye pencils. Rather, the color just gets on the applicator, where it is difficult to get off without using makeup remover. I find that a cotton swab works better for smudging and removing bits of extra color. Still, I think that this tool could be good with other types of cosmetics.

Blends well
As a person with long nails, this brush really mimics the fingers and is super hygienic as well because you can wash after every use. also, it blends well!
