WHY?!?!

First came the SiliSponge, then there was the gladwrapped Beautyblender and now we have condoms, people. Yep, condoms for makeup.

Instead of applying foundation with a Beautyblender – you know, because it’s designed to absorb excess product and blend for a flawless base – vloggers have begun wrapping their makeup sponges in condoms.

The idea, we’ve realised, is that less product goes to waste. But they know they’re still putting a condom on their face, right!?

Despite the trend gaining traction on Instagram and YouTube, we’re pleased to say that we’re not alone in our confusion or our judgement…

Someone PLEASE explain this to us because we srsly don’t get it.
