Sure, it gives your makeup an absolutely flawless finish — but it’s not without its problems. It can attract bacteria, it eats a lot of product, and for what looks like a regular sponge, it’s a little pricey. That’s probably why every beauty Instagram star and their mom has come up with their own bizarre “replacement” for the neon pink sponge. And by “bizarre,” I mean bad. Because, seriously? These household object foundation hacks just don’t freaking WORK. To prove it, I tried to apply my makeup with 8 crazy Beautyblender replacements, and it was a horror show. Oh boy, here we go. It’s OK. But you know what’s better? A Beautyblender. Way worse. I’m not sure who thought of this hack, but I hope for their sake they’ve moved on and gone back to their normal sponges that, you know, aren’t tampons. That’s how crazy this makes me look and feel. This is not a reasonable alternative to the Beautyblender. If you’re genuinely taking the time to hard boil eggs in the morning to do this, I recommend taking a long, hard look at yourself in the mirror. I certainly did after writing this. I may be extra, but I’m not delusional.
