For instance, our favorite silicone option will only work with liquid makeup, like a cream foundation or a CC cream, but it's easy to clean, quite durable, and will last longer than a traditional sponge. Comparatively, when you use a classic sponge, it's damp, which helps blend makeup more smoothly than a dry silicone sponge.

To keep your sponges clean without damaging them, you can use a cleanser specifically designed for makeup tools like the EcoTools Professional Makeup Cleaner.
