What it is
A soft-touch sponge inspired by the makeup techniques of Dior's backstage pros. The oval shape is angled on one side to fit the contours of the face, allowing you to apply foundation with incredible precision. The flat side of the sponge spreads and blends the foundation evenly over the skin. The rounded side is designed to be used with a light tapping motion to cover and effectively correct skin tone, creating a professional, flawless finish like a makeup artist would apply.

My wife was very happy when I gave it to her as a gift. She also seemed happy with the sample that came with it. She said it's easy to use.
I saw some reviews saying it was hard, so I was curious and bought it. It is certainly hard, but it has a good elasticity and spreads beautifully without any problems. It's comfortable to use. Because it's hard, it seems to absorb less liquid foundation.
I use it to spread Dior liquid foundation and blend concealer. It's a bit pricey for a sponge, but a beauty advisor actually used it and said it gave a beautiful finish, so I bought it to try it out. It's just the right amount of firmness and elasticity, making it easy to use. The finish is clearly different from spreading it with your fingers, and it seems to absorb less foundation than a brush. As a result, you can use a small amount of foundation. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who isn't satisfied with the spread or finish of their liquid foundation. I wash it every three uses or so with a sponge cleaner specifically for other brands. It's a bit of a hassle, but it removes dirt well, so if you keep at it, it should last a long time.

I bought this a few years ago, but I didn't use it for a while because I was bothered by its hardness. However, it pairs incredibly well with the Diorskin Forever Skin Perfect Stick, so I've brought it back. I'm not a fan of soaking the sponge so much, so I use it dry, but this hardness actually suits the foundation mentioned above, and I felt like it spread more quickly and neatly than with a softer sponge. However, (if I remember correctly) I think it was made in France when I bought it, but it seems to be made in Korea now. Honestly, if I were to buy it now, I'd wonder, "Why at this price?" This is something that can be said for department store cosmetics in general these days, but since it's a high-end product, I wish it was made in the country of origin or the country where it's sold.
