Let me be honest here and tell you that I do not use much makeup tools, whenever I am doing my makeup. Sometimes I would apply even eye shadow with my ring finger, it’s because either I am lazy or I am in hurry. But it does not mean that, I overlook the necessity of having & using makeup tools. Beauty blenders, for example, I find them very effective to get a flawless base. I like to use Puna Store Miracle Complexion Sponge, whenever I do makeup with all my peace gathered around me. I always crave to have that flawless base, with no streaks of foundation visible & which feels like my second skin. This sponge from Puna Store, delivers very satisfactory results.
When Sreeparna talked about PAC makeup wedges, I realized, I too have this sponge, that I shall review for you. Let’s talk about this makeup sponge in detail.
About Puna Store Miracle Complexion Sponge
Get a flawless base with the help of this 3 in 1 multi functional sponge. Rounded sides will give better coverage at large area while the pointed tip will help to cover imperfections. Use the flat bottom under the eyes & nose. Made with latex free polyurethane foam, it has a versatile design. Now put on your makeup with ease and step out with smooth & enhanced finish.
Price
Rs. 499 for 1 piece of sponge.
How To Use
The sponge comes in a very functional shape. It has rounded sides, a flat bottom & a pointed tip.
The sponge can be used dry or wet, I would recommend using it when damp. Dip it into the water & squeeze out all the water before using it. You either apply the product with the help of this sponge or can use the sponge to blend foundation/makeup after applying it with fingers.
- Use the rounded sides to blend the makeup on large areas of your face.
- Use the flat bottom to get flawless coverage under your eyes & nose.
- Use the pointed tip to cover the imperfections efficiently.
How To Take Care Of The Sponge
It’s really easy, put it under running water for few seconds, use a mild shampoo or brush cleanser to take out any product residue or until you feel the sponge is clean. Wash it again under running water to make sure all the soap is gone. Place it somewhere to dry it completely before using it again. I also try to put my sponge tools to put in direct sun light so that they do not develop any germs.
You can wash it after every use or choose to wash it after using it for 2-3 times. But Do not use it more than that in one stretch, it would not work that effectively & may also lose it’s quality
Packaging
The sponge comes in a transparent packaging with product information printed on it. The sponge is light orange colored, and is almost is the size of an egg. It has a pointed tip and a flat bottom which makes it look exquisite, in my opinion and easy to hold too.
Color & Texture
The sponge is light orange colored, high quality sponge. Even after upon damping, I do not see major change in the size of the sponge, it means it is densely packed, hence can be used dry to apply the products. It won’t soak up much product. Less product wastage. The surface of the sponge is very smooth, hence gives very even finish.
My Experience
I feel it is quite a quality product. It is very affordable too. I got it from Amazon.in, where it sells just at Rs. 220, you save really big. Before using this sponge I was using Faces Foundation brush, to apply foundation, which used to give me nice finish too. Next I invested in this sponge, since every one was so raving about beauty blenders (such a fancy name, isn’t it?). I got my hands on it, since I just did not want to go ahead with a high end costly thing, since I mostly use my fingers to apply foundations (as I mentioned earlier).
But I am happy to have this, I actually learned it is so much better to use a sponge than fingers sometimes to apply foundation or any base makeup. Dampening the sponge really does some real magic here. The moisture in the sponge gets transferred to your skin and you get a luminous and even finish.
I have quite uneven skin texture due to acne/acne scarring, so it is tricky to achieve even finish with fingers, but this sponge works beautiful to help me get a much better finish. My foundation does not look caked up even if I apply multiple layers with this sponge.
I do not have any issues with this sponge, as such except the fact that it has to be washed & dried every time I use it, sometimes it is too much of work for a lazy mother.

Great post! Seems like a dupe for the Real Techniques sponge too. In fact, I just made a new post about make-up tools.
