beauty-ful-disaster asked: What's a good blending tool for contouring?

A Beauty Blender or “fancy” makeup sponge used slightly damp is the best in my opinion and most used when blending out contour and highlighting products by makeup artists and professionals. You can easily blend out the harsh lines by gentle tapping and pressing. Sometimes using a brush to blend will move around the product too much and over blend. Using a makeup sponge keeps the contour and highlight where it needs to be and creates a very airbrushed finish :)

Although I prefer the original Beauty Blender (the one sold at Sephora and called “Beauty Blender) when applying foundation, I think a cheaper alternative would work just fine for blending out contouring/highlighting!

You can get the Original Beauty Blender online or at Sephora for around $20 for one but I usually get a 2 pack because you save a few dollars. 

However Sonia Kashuk (sold at Target), Real Techniques and Nordstrom (makes a Nordstrom brand one) all make cheaper dupes that are under $10!
