Clé de Peau Beauté The Sponge

The Sponge by Clé de Peau Beauté is a multi-purpose blending tool that helps to seamlessly diffuse liquid and cream-based makeup products. Created in partnership with Cle de Peau Beauté makeup artists, the uniquely-shaped applicator is designed to fit both the wide and narrow contours of the face, its airy, marshmallow-like softness gliding across the skin.

Encouraging a flawless finish, the versatile sponge can be used wet or dry for customisable coverage. The unique shape allows for a multitude of uses, helping you to apply foundation, concealer and blush with ease.

To apply foundation: dot desired amount of product onto cheeks with fingertips. Using the curved side of the sponge, use light dabbing motions to spread foundation little by little. Then, blend evenly from the centre of your face outward. For fuller coverage, dab on more foundation in small layers at a time.

To contour: apply an appropriate amount of concealer directly to the skin. Then blend along the cheekbones and jawline using the small, flat side. For more dramatic contouring, choose a color one shade darker than your natural complexion.

To apply concealer: apply a small amount of product directly to the skin and gently blend with the sponge tip.

To apply blush: portion your desired amount of blush on the sponge or a finger and apply it to the cheek. Then blend using the small flat side as if drawing an oval.

For wet application: moisten sponge with water and gently squeeze out excess. After use, allow it to dry thoroughly.

To clean: wash in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Massage gently between fingers and thumb to remove makeup residue. Rinse thoroughly and blot gently to remove excess water. Allow the sponge to dry completely on the tray before each use.
