Frequently Asked Questions
How do I properly use the SOSU Large Blending Sponge for foundation application?
To achieve a flawless foundation application with the SOSU Large Blending Sponge, follow these steps:
Wet the Sponge: Thoroughly dampen the sponge with water until it expands to approximately three times its original size. This expansion ensures a smoother application and prevents the sponge from absorbing excess product.
Squeeze Out Excess Water: Gently squeeze the sponge to remove any excess water, leaving it damp but not dripping.
Apply Foundation: Place a small amount of liquid or cream foundation onto the back of your hand or directly onto your face.
Blend Using Dabbing Motions: Use the rounded sides of the sponge to gently dab and blend the foundation across larger areas of your face. For precise application around the eyes and nose, utilize the flat edge or the precision tip of the sponge.
This method ensures an even, natural-looking finish without streaks.
Can the SOSU Large Blending Sponge be used for products other than foundation?
Yes, the SOSU Large Blending Sponge is versatile and can be used for various makeup applications, including:
Powder Application: After applying foundation, use the sponge to set your makeup with powder for a long-lasting finish.
Contouring: Utilize the flat edge of the sponge to apply and blend contour products, enhancing the natural structure of your face.
Baking: Apply a generous amount of setting powder to areas you wish to highlight or set, then use the sponge to press the powder into the skin, allowing it to 'bake' before brushing off the excess.
This multifunctionality makes the sponge an essential tool in your makeup routine.

How can I prevent my SOSU Large Blending Sponge from absorbing too much product?
To prevent the SOSU Large Blending Sponge from absorbing excess product, follow these tips:
Dampen the Sponge: Before use, wet the sponge thoroughly and squeeze out excess water. A damp sponge is less likely to soak up makeup products.
Apply Product to the Face First: Instead of applying makeup directly onto the sponge, place it on your face and then use the sponge to blend.

These practices ensure efficient use of your makeup products while achieving a flawless finish.

Proper storage of your SOSU Large Blending Sponge is essential for maintaining its quality and hygiene:
Allow to Dry Completely: After cleaning, ensure the sponge is fully air-dried in a well-ventilated area.
Avoid Enclosed Spaces: Do not store the sponge in airtight containers or bags while damp, as this can promote mold and bacterial growth.
Use a Clean Surface: Place the sponge on a clean, dry surface or in a breathable container to protect it from dust and contaminants.
Following these storage practices will help extend the life of your blending sponge.
