The Beautyblender is a makeup sponge that is made from polyurethane, water, and synthetic acid-based dyes. The materials used to make the Beautyblender are derived from fossil fuels and synthetic chemicals, which emit and release harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. However, the company has recently released a new product called Bio Pure, which is made from a 60% plant base of renewable sugarcane and produced with a proprietary plant-based pre-polymer for the foam.
The Beautyblender is cruelty-free and vegan, meaning it has not been tested on animals and does not contain any animal-derived ingredients. The company also avoids using sulfates in their Blendercleansers, which are found in many beauty products and household cleaners and can be irritating to the skin.
The ingredients used in Beautyblender products are listed on the packaging and can also be found on the companys website. The sponge is latex-free and non-toxic, and the dyes used are water-soluble and non-toxic as well.
Positive aspects of the Beautyblender include its softness and ability to blend makeup easily for a natural finish. However, some users have reported that the color of the sponge can run after a few months of use.
