Well, for the price, you can't go wrong! I have yet to find a beauty sponge that compares to this one - I even tried the Jeffree Star x Morphe sponge and hate it in comparison. These are incredibly soft, easy to clean, and super affordable. Do yourself a favor and stop spending nearly $30.00 on the OG Beauty Blender and get the 4 pack of Real Techniques. I will never try another sponge as long as they keep making these. I LOVE THEM!
