Beautyblender® Kuala Lumpur Makeup Sponge

Beautyblender's Kuala Lumpur Makeup Sponge is a limited-edition version of the original, with colour drawn from the city it is named after. The foam is Beautyblender's own aqua-activated formula, and the brand builds the whole pitch around makeup that has to survive heat and humidity.

Foam	Exclusive aqua-activated™, latex-free
Works with	Liquid, cream and powder formulas
Size	Travel-friendly, built for touch-ups
Made in	The USA
Edition	Limited — stocked only while supplies hold out

What it actually does

• Blends every texture without streaks. Liquids, creams and powders all go on with the same bouncing motion.
• Coverage that feels light. The aqua-activated foam is credited with a smooth, buildable finish that stays breathable instead of sitting heavy on the skin.
• Built for humid weather. Beautyblender frames the whole edition around holding up in tropical conditions — relevant if your makeup has to last through a Cairo summer.
• Soft and adaptable. The latex-free foam is described as adjusting to any skin tone and texture.
• Wastes less product. Less foundation absorbed into the sponge means more of it ends up on your face.
• Reusable and washable. This is a wash-and-repeat sponge, not a disposable one. No latex in the foam, and manufacturing happens in the United States. Stock on the colourway is finite — once it is gone, it is gone.

How to use

1. Soak it first. Run it under water until it swells up to full size.
2. Squeeze the water out, using a towel if you want it drier faster.
3. Bounce the product across your skin — liquid, cream or powder — rather than dragging it.
4. Clean it every single time with Blendercleanser.
5. Let it dry fully in open air before you put it away.

Storage warning: never shut a damp sponge inside a bag or a drawer. Stand it on the canister lid instead — it works as a pedestal and keeps air moving around it.

Questions

Does it have to be wet before use?

Yes. The foam is aqua-activated, so wetting it until it expands and then wringing the excess out is the first step. Using it dry is not how it is meant to work.

Can I use it with powder?

Yes — liquid, cream and powder formulas are all listed, and the brand says it blends them without streaking.

How do I keep it from going mouldy in humidity?

Wash it after every use with Blendercleanser and let it air dry completely somewhere ventilated. Do not store it damp inside a sealed bag or drawer; standing it on the canister lid keeps airflow around it.

Is it different from the standard Beautyblender?

It uses the brand's exclusive aqua-activated foam, as the core range does. What makes this one distinct is the limited-edition Kuala Lumpur colourway, which is only around while supplies last.
