The Guru Index verdict
Approved
✓Approved · 78%What the gurus are saying
Gurus recognize the Original as the sponge that transformed the beauty industry and agree it blends makeup smoothly, though they split on whether it stays the best option today. Some find it applies powder beautifully and lasts around six months to a year with regular use, while others report it absorbs too much product compared to generic alternatives and can degrade or shed over time, making the higher price harder to justify. The sponge works best when dampened before use.
