I saw a video today of a woman applying her primer with a sponge and it got me to thinking...do you apply your primer with your God-given applicator (fingers), a sponge or a brush?

I've always used my fingers but a sponge sounds intriguing. Thoughts?

@SurferWife @I never thought about this. My fingers.

Fingers, same as my foundation.  I do buff out my foundation with a dense brush at the end though.

Fingers for me. if sponge used is dry, wouldn't it absorb too much product?  If sponge is damp, how does that work on primer? Wouldn't it negate the slip of the primer and some of its properties as far as extending wear etc.?

If you do try, let us know how it goes.

@Icegoddess @Here's a strange confession....I love buffing my makeup! It makes me feel so grown up and ladylike! Lol

fingers or a spray container.

I don't use Primer, but I would use my fingers if I did.  As it stands now, I use my fingers for liquid makeup and sometimes use a Beauty Blender if I need it for corners near they eye.

Fingers. I've tried sponge and brush and I did not have good results. Probably my technique was wrong. I do seem to have better control and better results when I use my fingers for primer, BB creams and foundations.

The tools I was born with 😉. The same goes for my eyelids for eyeshadow primer.

Applying with a sponge or brush does sound odd to me.  I may try it tomorrow just to say I did, but I treat my primers as my last skin care application, so I've always used my fingers.

Skincare - fingers

Make-up - brush or sponge
