@Lipstickdiva I've been using a damp Real Techniques sponge for long time now. I love the air brushed look. I've never used it dry. I wash it before each use - oftentimes in the shower.

@Shanus I never use the sponge moist. I tried that once and it thins out your foundation. I also noticed that when you use your fingers to apply foundation it gives more coverage but when I use the sponge dry it still gives me nice coverage. I use Zum goat's milk bar soap to clean my sponge.

@monicakm, I don't think you are doing anything wrong. I think it's a matter of preference and the foundation. I own foundations that I just apply with my fingers. This particular IT one didn't look good that way though.
I do not use the sponge damp. I tried that and didn't care for the results. I like it better just dry. Maybe for other foundations, damp will be better.
