Beautyblender on Sale at Rea Ann Silvia
The Beautyblender—who hasn’t heard of it? This little makeup sponge was a true trend that took the whole world by storm. The founder is Rea Ann Silva, a Hollywood makeup artist who counted several celebrities among her clients. She was one of the very first makeup artists to work on a high-definition TV show. She needed a tool to ensure that the lead actors’ makeup looked good on set. She couldn’t rely on the standard airbrush because it took far too much time, so she decided to cut her own egg-shaped sponges that would do the job well. Compared to today’s products, Silva’s sponges were light and portable. Back then, the egg-shaped sponges disappeared from the TV set where she was working. The actors tried to steal her sponges! She knew right then that she had a top-notch product and began to think there must be sales opportunities for the sponge. She began working on a prototype for the Beautyblender. As Rea Ann Silva would say: “No one should say, ‘Oh, your foundation looks good’; instead, they should say, ‘Wow, your skin looks fantastic.’”
She finally began selling the sponge in 2002, and the company has been a huge success ever since. Today, Beautyblender continues to drive innovation with products that require minimal effort and deliver maximum results.
Beautyblender
The Beautyblender’s secret lies in its shape. Its narrow top makes it easy to reach hard-to-reach areas, such as the nose and eyes. The wide bottom of the sponge, on the other hand, is ideal for larger areas of the face, such as the forehead and cheeks. Thanks to the sponge’s fine texture and the fact that it’s slightly damp, you won’t get a “foundation cake” effect.
- A sponge that adapts to the contours of the face
- Leaves skin looking smooth and radiant
- Forms the foundation of all makeup
Beautyblender Products
Each color of the sponge has a different meaning. Below, you can see what each color means and exactly what the sponge can be used for.
- Beautyblender Original: the #1 best-selling makeup sponge in the world! The sponge is super soft, exclusive, latex-free, and blends all makeup easily for a flawless finish. The sponge can be used with primers, powders, creams, and sunscreen.
- Beautyblender Pro: The Pro is made from the same material as the Original. The difference lies in the darker color. The Pro is the perfect applicator for dark-colored products that are difficult to rinse off with a lighter-colored applicator. Use it with complexion products, long-lasting makeup, and self-tanners for best results.
- Beautyblender Pure: a white sponge for applying your makeup base. Use it with primers, serums, moisturizers, and creams.
- Beautyblender Bubble: This sponge is the same as the Original, but in a new color. Just like the Original, this sponge is suitable for primers, powders, creams, and sunscreen.
- Beautyblender Bodyblender: An XL, reusable, high-definition cosmetic sponge that can be used for sunscreen, self-tanner, or bronzer.
In addition to makeup sponges, the brand also offers various kits. The kits consist of a sponge paired with a Solid Cleanser. You can choose from three different Beautyblender sponges: the Original, the Pro, and the Pure. They also make great gifts! We also carry a set in our collection that includes no fewer than 5 different colors of Beautyblenders, including the Original.
How to Use a Beautyblender
There are 5 simple steps to applying makeup with the Beautyblender.
- Wet the sponge.
- Squeeze the sponge to remove all the excess water.
- Dab the sponge with your chosen makeup—foundation, for example—onto your skin (don't wipe, or you'll end up with streaks on your face). Dabbing helps the foundation blend beautifully into your skin.
- Clean the sponge after each use.
