How To Wash a Beauty Blender (Budget Friendly)



I recently bought a beauty blender, and I was shocked how much a Beauty Blender cleanser costs! 
I knew I had to share this cleanser that I got in Japan. 


I used to use to to wash my makeup brushes, but I love this stuff so much that I ration it. Now, I only use it for beauty blenders.

  

This sponge cleaner is 1 yen (about $1.50) at Daiso in Japan. 

I buy it now on ebay for $8 includes shipping.

It is more than double the price of what is sold in Japan, but it's still cheaper $17.95 that Beauty Blender sells for. 


Anyways let me you show the proof! 


This is my nasty beauty blender.



Daiso sponge cleanser is a clear liquid. I just pour it straight onto the sponge. 



And I just run it through water and squeeze it a few times till the sponge is clean. 




And.... 


TA-DAH!! 


A squeaky clean beauty blender!

FOTD: Trying to Look Normal When You're Sick Natural Makeup


I don't feel well today, but I'm still feel well enough to put on makeup! muahahah! 

Am I the only one that thinks putting on makeup wakes me up? To me, putting on makeup is like having a 2nd cup of coffee.  It's glorious.  
I'm going to work/school today, so I don't do anything crazy. Actually, I never do anything crazy. I just like clear skin with some flirty lashes. 

I was excited to put on makeup today, because I get to use my beauty blender for the first time! (heaven's singing)

Sephora Birthday Haul

I was planning on doing a FOTD, but my Sephora box came! I couldn't wait to show you! 




Fresh Sugar Mini Lip Duo: This was my free birthday gift some Sephora. I love lip balms and hoard them all the time. Hi, My name is Mary and I am a lip balm hoarder. 

Beauty Blender: I need to know what the hype is all about! ( I'm surprised how small the box is!) 

Too Faced Lip Insurance: My cousin swears by this. I hope this makes my lips lasts longer

Laura Mercier Shimmer Block in Peach Mosaic: My big splurge! I hope it brings the most prettiest glow for the following spring and summer.
