6 Makeup Sponge Holders for Your Fave Beauty Tool

Your makeup sponge deserves tender love and care, and that starts with taking it out of your makeup bag and giving it a safe, germ-free home of its own. Makeup sponges are best used wet and can give you a streak-free, dewy and airbrushed finish. But throwing your makeup sponge back in its container or a stuffy bag is a breeding ground for bacteria. To make sure your makeup sponge stays mold-free and lasts as long as possible, storing it in a dry, arid environment that lets it ventilate post-use is key. Ahead, discover six of our favorite storage solutions for makeup sponges.

That’s where this makeup holder comes in. Not only does this bicycle makeup sponge holder cost barely anything, but it will also serve as a chic addition to your vanity.
