it works but not my fave [SEP] while i do prefer the regular teardrop shape sponge this one is super soft and gets the job done the top flat surface is great for applying and blending out foundation the thing i do not like is how flimsy the point of the sponge is it is almost floppy i tried to use it to blend out concealer and it is just too unstable i did eventually get it to work but i have a much easier time with the regular orange rt sponge
