A slightly damp sponge absorbs less product and spreads it in a thin, almost sheer layer, giving a more natural skin finish than a brush. It suits those who prefer light to medium coverage.
A brush (especially a flat or dense one) lets you apply a more concentrated layer with finer control over specific areas, so it suits higher coverage or correcting particular spots.
Whether brush or sponge, build-up of product and oils over time affects your makeup and may irritate the skin. Washing tools regularly with a gentle cleanser is essential.
Many professional looks combine the two: a sponge to blend foundation all over, and a small brush for details such as under-eye concealer or refining edges.
