The beauty blender may or may not be the greatest invention in the history of beauty tools. Whether you are a seasoned pro or a makeup newbie, an egg-shaped beauty blender or sponge is one of the first things that a person grabs for their vanity and for all the right reasons.

It blends your makeup with ease, giving it a seamless look, plus one beauty sponge pretty much works for blending everything (creams, liquids and going over the harsh lines of powder products), setting your makeup, and last but not the least, it's extremely convenient to carry around since it's made from foam. But, with so many new shapes and textures to choose from, it can be difficult to navigate this small but important purchase, so here are our top ten picks for the best beauty blenders and sponges available on Nykaa that will always give you a seamless blend.

The icon that came and flipped the game with how we were applying our makeup, the OG Beauty Blender loyalists refuse to switch to any other makeup sponges or brushes. The latex-free beauty sponge almost doubles in size when dampened and doesn't lose its shape once it dries down because of it's amazing elasticity. The edgeless shape ensures no streaks are left behind post blending your liquid products and works equally well with powders. The only downside about this product is that it costs INR 2,000 which is a lot for a beauty sponge that's supposed to be replaced every two months. But if your pocket allows you, this one's definitely worth all the praise.

Real Techniques is by far our favourite brand for affordable makeup brushes that last you for years. And their RT Miracle Complexion Sponge is a close second with its unique shape. The rounded side blends larger areas of the face and is particularly good for baking. The precision tip covers blemishes, imperfections or any areas you want to target with ease, while the flat edge contours around the eyes and the nose for a seamless blend of creams and liquids. The only thing that icks us about this sponge is that it doesn't work as well with powders and also soaks liquids and creams more than one would like, but nevertheless, a great buy for those who like a natural finish with lighter coverage.

Swiss Beauty is known for their quality makeup products that are as affordable as they are amazing, and their beauty blender is likely the cheapest on this list but one that should definitely be on your radar if you are a beginner. The sponge is quite soft on the skin and doesn't absorb foundation as much. We particularly liked this green one with the flat edge which makes it easier to blend your under-eye concealer. Do make a note that their sponges are meant to be used with liquids and creams only, powders are to be skipped.

This one might be our favourite beauty sponge on the list. The Camo Concealer Sponge from e.l.f. is latex-free, decently priced and can be used with a variety of liquid, mousse, powder and cream formula products. The dual-pointed ends easily fit into the hard-to-reach areas of the face, allowing you to have a more controlled application. We would always rebuy this one as it picks up the perfect amount of product (neither too much, nor too less) to build coverage that also looks natural.

The Simply Nam Velvet Microfiber Makeup Sponge has tiny microfiber bristles that ensure minimum product is absorbed to give you a seamless blend that looks airbrushed. The microfibre sponges are a great addition to your makeup kit if you are someone who enjoys wearing full (or medium) coverage complexion products and don't want a sheer finish. Additionally, the microfibres allow both dry and wet application which is a plus if you simply want to use your beauty blender for setting your face with powder without dampening it.
