When it comes to applying foundation, I'm typically a makeup sponge type of girl. Sometimes I go as basic as using my fingers. But when I was asked to try the blendSMART2 Powered Makeup Brush ($69), I was totally intrigued. I have seen the motorized brush all over Instagram and Facebook, but I wanted to find out if it's truly worth the hype.
I went all out and tested the blendSMART Holiday Glow Kit ($116), which includes three different brush heads. I opted for the foundation brush so I could see how well it worked the product into my skin. The assembly is easy; all you have to do is insert the included battery, then pop on the brush head of your choice.
My foundation has honestly never looked better; it melted into my pores and fully covered my blemishes in a way I have never seen.
I followed the directions on how to apply product, and I have to say, I was blown away. My foundation has honestly never looked better; it melted into my pores and fully covered my blemishes in a way I have never seen. I have used the brush every single day since receiving it, and I am still loving it. My sponge is collecting dust in my makeup bag.
To see how exactly this brush works in motion and how I applied my face makeup, keep reading. I will give you all the details. It's on Amazon, so good news — you can order it easily. Let's see the brush in action!
What the blendSMART2 Makeup Brush Looks Like Turned On
How I Use the blendSMART2 Makeup Brush on My Face
The directions say to apply the product onto the brush while it's turned off (important that it's off for this step so makeup doesn't fly everywhere!), then dot it on your face with the brush. In this video, you'll see that I start with spots of foundation all over my face. Then you turn the brush on and start blending the makeup into your face. I was scared it would splatter, but it didn't one bit.
The directions tell you not to move your wrist in a circular or sweeping motion because the brush will do the work for you. I have to admit, I couldn't help myself, as you can see, but I was still utterly shocked by how well the device blended my foundation. Not only did it do a better job than I ever could, but it also cut the application time in half. It was fast and easy.
