    I always use a brush unless with foundation you have some blemishes then use a sponge, but blot the makeup in the area & smooth over with a light powder finish then brush on. When you apply more makeup with brushes it gives it a softer look. You can still go for dramatic if you apply more. But this way it doesn’t look like you need a chizel to get it off your face at night when washing.

    For foundation, I prefer sponge becuase then you can really blend it & also sometimes the brush hair get on your face & stick to the foundation. For eyeshadow, both work equally well, but I prefer the sponge applicator becuase then you can get it a little bit wet which makes the eye color so much more intense & long-lasting. For lip gloss, I just always use the lip brush that comes with it & it’s always worked fine for me.

    foundation: sponge Why?: because you can smooth it on better & with the brush you can really put it on smoothly
    eyeshadow: brush Why?: because using a small brush you can put it on da lid evenly while the sponge may make the make up look alittle to much
    glose: lip brush why?: because it glides on smoothly
