love the colors in this sponge set sponge texture is dense metal holder is great [SEP] this is a lovely set of three sponges in easter colors of green pink and lilac it also comes with a great metal sponge holder the sponges are dense unlike most sponges like this on the market as a result make up does not soak in as easilythe one lilac sponge with a flat side is great for smooth applications the typical egg shaped pink and the hour glass green sponges are good for blending or any large make up application the hour glass one is easy to hold in the centerthese feel good in the hands blend reasonably well and feel soft against my skin these blenders make a great gift for the make up obsessed i love that the sponges do not smell i tried other colored sponges and they smell like pencil shavings or other chemicals and these do notthe sponges themselves are similar in style to all of the others that i tried before this with the exception that the sponges are on the dense side instead of airy to me what set of sponges to buy all comes down to the price and the angles one wants on the sponges as well as whether it is for gifting or not the colors are important too at least to me these colors also make it perfect for the easter basketat the current price of it is a reasonable per piece if i count the holder
