I haven't seen many all-purpose sponges from cosmetic manufacturers lately, so I bought this one. It's comfortable to use. I have sensitive skin, and some puffs sting when they touch my skin, but this one doesn't. It's black, so you can see at a glance how much foundation is on each spot, making it easy to use. It can be used with any type of foundation, including liquid, powder, and solid. (It probably works with cream blush too.) I'd like to buy another one to have on hand for washing. By the way, it's large, so it's not ideal for carrying around.
I use this sponge to blend my liquid foundation after spreading it with my fingers. It's a little thin, but it's soft on the skin and spreads the foundation evenly. Because it's large, I use it twice on each side before washing it, and it dries quickly after washing. I'm also happy that it comes with a case, which makes it easy to store.
I was looking for a black sponge and found this one. It's soft but resilient, and just the right size at about 7.5 x 5 x 1.2 cm. It comes with a case so I can use it on the go.

I stopped using it because it was too hard for me. I thought it might not be good for my skin if it wasn't soft enough.
