I purchased a Beauty Blender this afternoon but I have a question and am hoping someone can help me. I know you have to wet it and squeeze out the remaining water before using but do you wet it each time you use it or just the one time?

 

Thank you!

I love the beauty blender, but it's a pita to clean.

Yes, you have to wash it after every time, too.   I wet mine thoroughly each time and squeeze, squeeze, squeeze and also will squeeze in a towel before I use it.  I also do this when I clean it.

I have been using my ELF blending brush for the past month and decided this morning to use my BB and I wonder why I stopped using it. I love my BB and it's the best for me, especially when I use a fuller coverage or thicker foundation. It helps keep it from looking "cakey." 

I agree about cleaning it. Right now I'm using the black one and just recently purchased the new light pink one as a back up. What was I thinking? 

I will say that in the summer when I'm using a CC or B.B. cream that I have to be careful, because it will soak it up. Yes, wet it every time you use it.

I don't.

 

If I have to wash it and I have to wet it before using it, I see no reason to get it wet twice. Before I use it, I squirt soap on it and wash it, then it's wet and I use it.
