Nope, nope and NOPE!!
The beautyblender sponge is one of the best tools you can use to apply your makeup for a natural, flawless finish. But, this changes everything – Stevie Miller, a 20-year-old from Suffolk, found bugs in her beautyblender.
She spotted a black hole in her sponge, so she decided to use tweezers to remove the debris, in case any got stuck inside. She removed a foreign material which she thought resembled a beetle. She then pulled out an insect wing. UGH.
Then all of a sudden, she pulls out another bug. “It’s got legs, it got legs, it’s got legs!” she screams.
As soon as we’re home, we’re cleaning our makeup bag. We’re NOT taking any chances!
Watch the horrifying video for yourselves below:
beautyblender has also released an official statement regarding the incident:
We are unable to verify the authenticity of the video or to confirm whether the sponge shown in the video is in fact a genuine Beautyblender purchased from an authorised retailer. Often imitated, but most certainly never duplicated, the Original Beautyblender is produced in an ISO Certified U.S. manufacturing facility that upholds the highest standards in quality control. As a result, it would be impossible for a sponge to come from our facility in the condition depicted in the video. Regardless of whether the video is legitimate, instances like this reconfirm how important it is for consumers to purchase their Beautyblender products only from an authorised retailer to ensure that they receive the level of quality and performance that the Original Beautyblender is known for.
