I used to only use cushion foundations, but since using a sponge-shaped puff, my makeup definitely applies better. Usually, my makeup would cake and wear off easily, but with this sponge, my makeup doesn't cake, and the staying power lasts a long time. Since it was my first time using one, I bought a product from Daiso, and I'm quite satisfied with it. It works well if you squeeze some foundation onto the back of your hand and then gently pat it onto your skin with the puff.
