Which is better, foundation brush or gourd sponge

Foundation brushes and gourd sponges are both tools needed for makeup. They can apply our makeup more evenly on the face, so it won't look so strange, and it's much better to apply it than with hands. These tools include foundation brushes and gourd sponges. These two things have the same function on the surface, but there are some differences in essence, and their effects are different. So which one is better, the foundation brush or the gourd sponge?

Advantages and Disadvantages of Foundation Brushes : Advantages: Foundation brushes are great for creating a natural look. When using, apply evenly from inside to outside along the skin texture with a brush. It doesn't over-absorb foundation, so there's no waste.

Disadvantages: Not suitable for skin with many blemishes. Because the blemishes need to be covered by local focus shots. At the same time, some fiber bristle products may cause skin sensitivity in some people.

  Advantages and disadvantages of sponge : Advantages : Easy to use, can be applied all over the face, or can be applied locally to conceal blemishes.

Disadvantages: It has strong adsorption capacity and is more suitable for use with foundation cream or foundation paste. Sponges are prone to harboring dirt and grime, so please pay attention to the cleanliness of the sponge. Remember to replace the old sponge with a new one in time.

Foundation brushes are mostly made of animal hair or synthetic fiber bristles, which are washable and durable. Most sponges have a fine texture, with almost no gaps visible on the surface and feel very smooth.

The foundation brush is used to apply makeup by dipping liquid foundation into the face and brushing it evenly, while the sponge is used to apply liquid foundation on the face first and then gently press the sponge to spread the liquid foundation.

The foundation brush makes the makeup look clear after application, but beginners may easily leave brush marks or use too much, which will make the makeup look too heavy. More practice is needed before use. The sponge is thick and has strong absorbency, making it very convenient to use for correcting powder patches in small details or wiping off excessive foundation. Use after lightly moistening the skin to make the base makeup adhere better to the skin.
