'The Perfect Weapon' Applicator Helps Protect Against Product Waste

— December 29, 2016 — Fashion
While the BeautyBlender sponge may have taken the cosmetics world by storm when it first hit the scene, now there is a new product called 'The Perfect Weapon' that could dethrone the beloved sponge applicator and become a staple in every makeup-lovers kit.

The Perfect Weapon by Violet Voss Cosmetics is a Silicone Gel Applicator that is specially designed for applying cream products such as foundation. Unlike a sponge applicator, The Perfect Weapon is made from silicone, which means there are no pores in the applicator for the product to seep into. As a result, the tool helps to prevent product waste, while simultaneously giving users a flawless finish.

Available in pink, blue or a translucent shade and sold at a budget-friendly price, the silicone applicator is a must-have for beauty buffs.
