Real Techniques
Miracle Complexion Sponge
Damp, it dilutes and sheers whatever you bounce on with it, and it presses product into the skin rather than sitting it on top. That is what people mean by a skin-like finish.
Worth knowing. Run it under the tap and squeeze it out until it stops dripping. A dry sponge drinks your foundation and leaves streaks.
One sponge, around $7. A dewy finish, A natural finish, An affordable pick
Real Techniques
Powder Brush
Large and loose, so it deposits a veil rather than a layer. For setting the areas that actually get shiny, which for most people is a band down the centre of the face and nothing else.
Worth knowing. Press and roll rather than sweep. Sweeping powder over wet foundation moves the foundation.
One brush, around $11. A matte finish, An affordable pick
