Summary: Makeup Sponges-High quality
Comment: These makeup sponges are hard to find. They are man made and very, very soft. I do not like using 'natural' sponges as killing a live entity is what has to be done.

Summary: The Best Makeup Sponges I have EVER Purchased
Comment: These sponges are really the best I have every used!!!! At first I thought the price was expensive for 4 sponges--(I always bought the cheap makeup sponges in the drugstore--they were convenient and cheap) But when I started using these sponges for liquid makeup and one for blush everyday The Quality Can't be Beat!!!! I wash them everyday with a little dish soap and water and they both come out clean--Thank you, Thank you Laura Mercier!!!! I will never go back to cheap drugstore sponges.

Summary: Excellent
Comment: Love these sponges. They're are extremely soft and feel good on my face. Haven't washed any yet but I love the fact that you can throw them in the washing machine. Well worth the money.

Update 4/15/07
Have washed 2 sponges in washing machine and am pleased that they came out just fine. No difference in texture. One sponge was stained with my makeup but since I only use them for putting on my tinted moisturizer it doesn't bother me. Washed sponges with regular load of clothes so I don't know if that makes a difference or not. The other sponge I washed came out almost totally pink all over but to be fair I hadn't used that sponge as long as the first one. The important thing is that they were definitely clean.

Summary: Ingenious little sponges
Comment: I've never much cared for makeup sponges, because the disposable triangle versions, the ones you buy in bulk, scratch my face and are a burden on the environment. I'd always imagined there was something out there that was a bit softer and hopefully, more permanent. The day I walked up to a Laura Mercier counter, my search ended.

I was sold on texture alone. These biodegradable sponges respect a sensitive face, yet are sturdy and hold up over many months. Since they're washable, there's no need to worry about bacteria build-up. They absorb quite a bit, but one Mercier makeup artist taught me the neat trick of dampening the sponge a bit with water before squeezing out the foundation. As I prefer a lighter application anyway, I've found that this helps blend the foundation into my skin very well. It also means I use less foundation over time.

Figure in less waste and fewer trips to the drugstore to buy the cheaper sponges, and it becomes clear that spending more now is a great investment over time. Your face will thank you.
