There's Now Another Household Item You Can Use To Apply Foundation If You Don't Have Brushes To Hand

On the slim chance you don’t have a condom, a bra insert, or maybe even a sock to hand (or, of course, a makeup brush) there’s a new way you can apply your foundation.

Got an egg in the fridge? And a pan of boiling water? Excellent - you’re ready to go.

Esther, the MUA blogger behind House Of Sienna, said that she’d seen loads of beauty hacks using ‘different things’ to blend makeup. So, y’know, to spice up the morning routine, she thought she’d try using an egg.

I guess it’s the same… shape as a beauty blender?

Is it effective? Yes, although let’s take into consideration the MUA’s already incredible makeup skills.

Would we try it? Nope, probably not.

Esther even ends the post by saying she’s not sure she would do it again, but that hint of ‘maybe’ is far more than you’ll get from us.

Makeup brushes don’t have to be expensive, guys. Can’t we just head on down to Superdrug and leave all our household goods to do the jobs they’re supposed to do?
