I love this blender! The silicone side makes it so easy to distribute makeup across my face and neck, minimizing product waste that comes with using a beauty blender or even a makeup brush. I use the sponge side to blend before finishing with my powders, including the bare minerals setting powder. This combination gives my skin a beautiful blurred finish that still looks like my skin but at its best. I think this blender would work for all skin types and makeup preferences (full coverage/minimal makeup), but I can say it definitely helps my skin with hyperpigmentation and perioral dermatitis look beautiful.
