No. 5 BeautyBlender© Blotterazzi Sponge
The egg-shaped sponge that changed the way we apply foundation also does a brilliant job absorbing oil. The pointed tip easily reaches the small spaces between the brows and around the eyes and nose, which blotting papers often miss. Plus the soft texture absorbs oil without affecting the makeup you’ve already applied. The Blotterazzi oil absorption, others have noted, has its limit, if oil absorption is your priority, use blotting paper instead.
