2-pack. Nice
Hello friends and welcome to another video
Today I'm here with Candace - Hey
and we're going to be testing out another strange dupe
So, recently there has been a few videos of people blending out their foundation with hard-boiled eggs
-Mhmm
using them like Beauty Blenders. We also have the Evie Blender
here today which is a silicone make up sponge
and it is, like, basically the same shape as a Beauty Blender with a little dip-it in the front
So, nobody said that the egg was a dupe for the Evie Blender
The Evie Blender is a silicone makeup sponge that doesn't absorb any product when you blend out your makeup
In theory, the hard boiled egg (used as a makeup sponge) is supposed to do a similar thing and not absorb any product
so Candace and I are going to see if this could be a dupe
This beauty hack is just in time for Easter and also just in time for lunch
It's smelling kind of sulfur-y over here because we've got three hard boiled eggs which we've just made
-Yeah, so now I can comfortably fart *laughter*
and nobody will know
Even though the Evie Blender has some texture on the outside, and the egg is pretty smooth
-Mmm, I want to eat it
Candace, you've already eaten one!
I know!
This one's a little more pointed than the egg
but both of them 'recall' a Beauty Blender
I'm really interested to see how this will work
So, we're going to do, um, one half of our face in the egg and one half in the Evie Blender
I would say, maybe, how' bout left side egg, right side Evie
They say 'apply about half of the amount of makeup you normally would use with a foam sponge'
the Evie Blender is best for liquid, creams, or gel makeup
You can even use it to apply lipstick!
Whaat?!
Okay, so, basically what you do is you, uh, blend the makeup onto your skin by first swiping the product
and then bouncing the product
Swipe, then bounce
It definitely feels more, just like a hard Beauty Blender -Mhmm
I can feel the, like, curvaces [crevices]
I don't know if that's just for holding onto the product?
I think it's actually blending pretty quick
it's not that slow - I know!
but it does hurt a little bit
- Mhmm
Just, 'cus like, it's just not soft
It is not absorbing ANY of the product
I have a ton left on my hand
I really appreciate the shape of the tip, though, -Yes! because it can really get in the crevice
- 'Cause the problem that I had with the silisponge was that there wasn't the ability to get under your eyes
And all that area and it was just kinda like we had to fold it up
It does have a little bit less of that, uh, suspicious slapping sound
-Oh, that was bad
*slapping sound*
-Someone overhears you, and their like, "Uh, Saf, what are you doing in there?"
I don't know if you were noticing it at all ...my foundation is really matte right now - Mhmm
-Sometimes, I-I-I feel wet after an application but this feels nice. Yeah!
I watched NikkiTutorials' video and she was saying that, like, this thing made her skin really dry
I think if you have really oily skin, maybe this could be really good
Like, I have combo skin so, I feel like for some parts of my face, this is gonna be great
And for other parts, it's like , *creepy, shaky voice* "Water..."
- Overall, I think the coverage is v [very] good
Alright, so this side is my, I don't know why it looks so yellow on camera
It's my aged parchment color of this foundation. I just look like an old piece of papyrus
I feel like in general... it's just very matte
- Yeah, I-I actually like that it's not super, like, dewy looking
You can always add the dewiness back in
- You know what I also like about stuff like this? Is that it's probably really easy to clean
Okay, um, so, it's eggy time. Take your pick
-Kinda like, wipe some moisture off
Oh, should I get a paper towel? Oh, uh
*laughing* - I'm just wiping the moisture off * voice fades to giggling* my body
Candace is just becoming one with the egg
Alright, so we each have our eggs and we're gonna, oh, my foundation is like dripping down my hand
- I'm really excited
Oh, my God, look *Candace laughs*
Oh! *Saf gasps*
It feels so nice, oh! You don't like it?
- It kinda feels like I'm being licked by a cold dog
-Like a dog's wet nose is pressing into me
Okay, so, I'm gonna try the same thing where it's like, smear, and then bounce
Off the...bat, this is kinda just, like, sitting on top - Yes My face
- Yes, definitely wetter
I do really love the way the egg feels on my face -Mhmm
Like, it's cooling
- Okay, um, now it's starting to dry a little
The initial...swipe was like, "This is just sitting on top of my face" -Mhmm
And now it's blending a little bit more
The thing that the Evie Blender's got that this egg don't got is the point
You can really get in the crevice in like a great way
I don't mind the job it's doing with the foundation but I'm, I'm doing the crevices with my finger at this point
- It's so much softer and it's not as stiff
I mean, I actually don't think I'm using that much product and it doesn't look like it's soaking up
too much - Yeah
- I like the rolling action I can do
Ooooh! Oh, my God that feels so nice - Isn't it so nice?
Okay, this is my Evie Blender side. And this is my egg side
with the assistance of a couple of fingers
You can't really see a line down the middle of my face. It kinda looks like both sides are pretty similar
- Evie Blender
- Egg blender
- I think you can tell a little bit on this side that there's like almost a little bit more product
I think the Evie Blender packs it on a little bit more - Mhmm
- Yeah, when I'm looking at the details of my face, this was much more detailed oriented
Yeah - That can go on its resume
I think that getting in the crevices is a huge plus for the Evie Blender
The egg is a nicer feeling on your face by a lot. Like, I really love way the egg feels.
It's cool. It's kinda soft
- If you could duplicate this feeling
- I mean
- Don't take that idea; it's mine
There is a lot of product left on my hand so I think both were pretty good at not absorbing product - Yeah
I don't know who's the winner here, though
- I think for me, it's the Evie Blender
- I would use this Evie Blender just because I have a little more oily skin
I think that I'm gonna have to give it to the egg - Woooaah!
For a product that never asked to be a beauty blender
The egg did a damn good job - Mhmm
Like the egg was like, "Listen, this was not my destiny. You took me off course. Sure, I'll blend your makeup out and do a pretty good job."
In terms of an everyday use, like an actual product, I think the Evie Blender has to win - Yeah
But in terms of, like, this one-on-one take down match, I think the egg, the egg has some advantages
- The egg would put up a very good fight
- Like it was underdog status
- The incredible, edible egg!
We wash off the eggs
Tyler: Is there a lot of makeup on that thing?
Saf: There's some makeup. Can you see that right there?
Just so you guys know, like, I don't think foundation's very good to eat health-wise
um, so maybe don't do this at home
but
- Mmm
- Watch us get like raging stomach aches
I can't taste the foundation - I can't either
There you go
Maybe you can wash it off and eat it after
- Maybe you can do it all
I think that this was actually a pretty successful test
- One might say an eggs-cellent dupe
I hope you guys enjoyed that video. Let me know if you tried this hack in the comments below
Um, let me just swallow some egg before I continue
