another good sponge from real techniques i like their others equally well [SEP] i like this but i do not love it it works well but i do not think it really stands out as a revolutionary shape or as a favorite among my sponge collectionthe feature of this sponge that i like best and used the most is the pointed tip which has more point that is currently pictured the point is excellent at getting into little creviced on the facethe other sides a re a little gimmicky but usable although i never use the smaller rectangular facets for anything overall i think i prefer using their brushes with rounded sides and i think their shape feels more natural in the hand as well still i have no complaints about this one and i really like the texture of it the pleasant point to this one probably renders this a tie basically i think you need a real techniques face sponge but i do not think it matters which one since the other is cheaper i would probably go with itit is a very soft sponge pleasant feeling on the skin and it seems made from quality material it washes clean and dries well
