Yes clean them with warm water and shampoo (any brand doesnt need to be expensive) .... thats what I do anyway X

loved it!

The way you do your tutorials and explain about every topic is superb. I just found about you today and I already watch over 10 videos. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
you have found a goldmine of information, my friend! :) Welcome to Lisa's channel, she is amazing.
Yo Soy Eli same
It refreshing to see a professional who doesn't like to use sponges. I have one, but have yet to master how to use it, and truthfully, don't like it very much. It was great to see your brush technique. I think it will help me to achieve a nicer look with my foundations.
Reviewer's Diary / Mary You're very beautiful. I know this is an old comment, but I felt compelled to tell you.
Thank you - that's super nice of you to say :-)
Reviewer's Diary / Mary yes !! I totally agree.!❣️
the pore refiner I'm using on my T-Zone in this video is my favourite prep for oily skin X
Hi Lisa, this tutorial was absolutely one of the best I have ever watched. I love how you explained that it makes for a better foundation application if you start at the centre of the face and work outwards. That makes so much sense. I just recently became a certified MUA so there is still a lot of tips and tricks that I need to learn. Thanks again for this video it was very helpful and educational. Thanks a million!!!! :) :) :)
Just wanted to say a massive thank you! I have always admired the flawless yet product light looking skin you have produced. I really took time to sit and watch a series of your skin tutorials from moisturiser all the way through to the finishing touches. I had a very frank and honest discussion with my brushes (now resurrected), foundations and concealers and only 25% made the cut. I sat and applied along to your tutorial (you have a very kind soothing voice btw) and I am glad to report back success, I have applied less product (none on some areas of my face), do not look cakey and recon I may have even shaved a few years off. A million thanks, what a game changer! Popping off to town now to update my concealers, don't tell my hubby shhh!
You must be watching it in low resolution (maybe 360), switch to HD (720 or ideally 1080). You can do this by clicking on the spiky circle under the film. My videos are super high, broadcast quality so dont watch then in less than 1080p..... if possible. If you internet is very slow this may not be possible however X
Yeah! I feel like it takes a liter of water to get a sponge thoroughly clean
I prefer fingers or brush
Yes very important ......Apply your sunscreen smoothly and evenly all over your face ensuring you really work and blend it into your skin before applying your foundation. X
Yes I always wash my hands before applying foundation or any other make-up, spotlessly clean hands are the only way to go! X
This is possibly the 10th time I watch this, it is so so helpful!
I never really have anything constructive to say in these comments, but I always find the need to thank you. These videos are truly brilliant.
I think nothing is better than fingers, you feel what you are doing, you need no tools, dont waste any foundation and above all the cleanest way to do it! Anyway its up to each one to chose :)
Thank you, thank you, you are a consummate professional, with amazing knowledge, and most important, you give me knowledge and the confidence to execute your methods-with great success.
HI Lisa, can you do a "foundation series" video about tinted moisturizers, bob creams and lighter options for everyday "your skin but better" wear? Thanks! Been watching for years :)
Non oily eye makeup remover and baby shampoo will get the stains out of beauty blender types of sponges, and make them sparkling clean. I them let mine sit in a white vinegar and water mixture for 3 minutes to keep the sponge and bacteria free!
Yes i do mention that in the next video, there is a certain amount of trial and error ....between the chemistry of the formula and the chemistry of your skin X
Again.. Thank you. Amazing. Just found you and am now truly inspired to be better at giving my own knowledge as an artist so freely. You are beautiful inside and out! Xoxox
Love this video. A beauty blender or real techniques sponge is a bit different from the traditional makeup sponges. I find when damp, these specific sponges don't absorb much product at all.
that's the point.
Thanks for your comment, captain obvious. I am aware of the point of product use. You've been very useful!
I love that you don´t really cut or edit your tutorials, it helps me to understand it "closer" and better. Keep going, you're amazing Lisa!! ♥
Such an informative video! If you haven't, you must try the beauty blender! It's the only sponge I will use
You're the only beauty youtuber that actually teaches us about makeup. Not just create videos every week with no techniques and just showing us the looks. Thank you for sharing with us all your techniques that actually help and benefit us!
It's amazing you remind us how important is to clean up our tools after use. I discovered the beauty blender a little while ago, and I felt in love, because I think the effect on the skin, is more much natural than any foundation brush, and the coverage remains pretty the same. But as I regularly do with my brushes, I wash and clean it every time after use. I think this step helps a lot too to extend our makeup tools life. :)
As busy as you are, I can't express enough how much I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to share your knowledge with us through your videos. Thanks so much, Lisa!!
thats a great compliment thanks! X
I don't think you're aware of just how absolutely brilliant this foundation series is. Thank you! I am a total beginner with makeup and having someone break it down so simply REALLY is appreciated so I can feel less overwhelmed while trying to achieve a basic level of makeup skills.
Thank you so much, Lisa. I love this series! One thing that I will say I'm glad you mentioned that the foundation type is key to determining what tool you use- ie Vitalumiere Aqua I always use my fingers. I do use a brush and I use a Beauty Blender with some others . You must clean it with anti-bacterial soap before each use, but I do find it often gives a flawless coverage on troubled skin that fingers & brushes can't achieve. Thanks for sharing your incredible talent!
I used to have the same issue. I've been exfoliating my skin thoroughly about twice a week. I also use a very gentle cleanser with muslin cloth daily. They remove dead skin, improve my skin texture and keep my skin clean. Also, I apply an natural facial toner that contains natural oils to hydrate my skin then seal it with a moisturizer. Everything is in thin layers. This routine helps my foundations perform 10 x better. Hope this helps!
@MsElfinchen it sounds like you have the wrong formulation. I have some recommendations coming soon in another video x
I have seborrheic dermatitis (my skin is flaky and sensitive) and my preferred method is just using my fingers. I've tried to use brushes and sponges and they tend to accentuate flakiness (especially brushes) while my fingers are much gentler and the flakiness isn't really accentuated. I do use facial peelings but I have a skin condition and my skin tends to become fastly covered with small flakes. That's why I don't use brushes, sometimes sponge but still prefer using fingers for applying liquid foundation. ;)
Lisa, you have to try the Marcelle BB cream (a Canadian product) in light- medium or light. It is amazing. I use my fingers and I apply it like a would a moisturizer- really making sure to blend it into my skin. Then I take a brush and even it out and apply concealer after that. It is so thin so it just evens out your skin without looking cakey, but I do find I need to spot treat/cover pimples afterwards as it does not cover up stops. Like you said, only about 15 % of most skin is actually bad, and the rest is lovely so take advantage of the nice skin.
You are so amazing for making these videos courses, you teach us, for free! So many so called makeup artists charge so much for teaching old techniques ortechniques they barely dominate... So thank you! Bless you!
I always wash my sponge before I use it. It needs to be damp anyway
This video series is an excellent idea knowing how many women struggle finding the right foundation shade and applying it the right way. Even if I know how to do it, I still learn something new with you as a teacher. Thank you, Lisa! xx
So helpful! I'm 30 and still working out how to apply a great foundation base. A lot of it has been trial and error so far. I think you are truly saving some of us girls/women the headache. Love you, Lisa. You are the BEST!!!!
So grateful for your videos!!! Wouldn't do it at all if it wasn't for your kindness in sharing with us!!! Just love you !!!🌟🙋💕💕✌🏾️❣
Apart from the fact that your videos are so useful, informative and beautifully professional, your voice is sooo soothing, I could listen to you all day Lisa!! xxx
This was lovely. I don't know what it is about both watching and going through foundation application that's so calming, but this was a fantastic watch and full of great advixe
Watching this in 2018 and I love it !!! It’s sad how Instagram and RUclips changed the real beauty of makeup. She’s absolutely right in everything she said !!! Applying too much foundation is not pretty and also not good for the skin. I remember when I was young and didn’t apply it my skin was gorgeous. Now I apply not much and my skin has issues. Thank u soooooo much for the remainder
Lisa, I am so grateful for your videos. As I’m getting older, I feel like I need makeup lessons to apply products in a more clever way. I appreciate your help, especially given how full your life has become as facets of your career continue to blossom.
Thank you for going through all the effort to make this series Lisa! Base is so important, and I think it's neglected a lot! So many women focus on eye make up and shadows and lipstick. If your base isn't right even though you have the perfect smokey eye, it just won't look good! X
I could listen to you for hours on end. So helpful
Lisa, thank you very much again. It seems that everything you said is so simple but at the same time it's the most important so that the foundation doesn't look like an Italian mask on your face :) It seems that we have already heard all those tips in your videos but now it is all well structured and you have a really clear image of it all in your head. Thank you!
This video saved me so much time and money. I look to you for all of my make up questions.
Lisa, I would just watch your videos over and over again!! So helpful! You are so professional, clear and humble.. Thank youuuuu
It would be lovely to see a video for people with VERY oily skin. Thank you so much for all of the wonderful videos!
I loved how you spoke about make up application; in particular when you explained your preference for brushes. You're an artist :-)
I'm so glad you mentioned towards the end about the eyebrows, I hate when this happens so hopefully I can use these tips!!!
I have a similar issue for the t-zone to be oily and large pores ,now I know how to prep my skin before foundation. Thanks a lot!!
I use fingers...the foundation I use is Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua...before I was using Bourjois Healthy Mix and I was using a brush with it... like you said I think it also depends a lot on the foundation type. Thank you for your videos Lisa! They are amazing! i love this series!
Thank you for how informative, professional, and personable your videos all are!
I always tend to place my foundation under my cheek bones first and then blend with a stippling brush. I'm definitely going to try from the middle of the face in future. It makes so much more sense!
Thank you for the tips on how to apply foundation. I was never really into wearing makeup, but I have been for a few months now and I am loving it. I like my makeup to look natural.
Lisa your so intelligent and well spoken - love listening to your advice! I would love to see a video on the best way to use the different brushes if possible? Thank you x
Every other foundation video seemed like an informercial. Yours feels like real education! Thank you!
Very useful, thank you.
I use my fingers and was afraid not to do it right, because I was not using brushes, but now I know it's fine.
Your videos are really very well done, interesting, and so clear. Thank you again.
I would enjoy seeing a video on different makeup looks for different weather. For example, colors you should wear on a gray cloudy day vs. a sunny warm day where the lighting outside makes your makeup look different depending on the weather.
I've been considering beginning to use foundation recently (I'm 22 but have never used it) so this series will be a great help for me! :) I'm really enjoying it so far.
I just love all of the videos in your Foundation Series! Thank you so much for creating these wonderful videos.
The most beautiful, yes.. and I find her to be the most professional makeup artist! She's classy and very talented at what she does!
I'm dealing with dry flakey skin & oily skin in the same areas. I haven't found a brush that will apply the foundation with out it flaking my skin. I've tried all different formulations of foundations as well. Even priming hasn't helped. Only thing that has worked is a damp beauty blender. I do clean it after every use. I would LOVE to use a brush though. How can I get a nice application with a brush on dry combo oily skin?
You have dehydrated skin! I'm sure you've found other methods and solved your problem... But what has helped me SO much is a super gentle cleanser (Dove beauty bar for me) that won't strip your skin, an alcohol free toner (Mario Badescu Glycolic Acid Toner is what I use), and a good basic moisturizer (I like the CeraVe moisturizer for normal to dry skin even though I get oily, or the Clinique dramatically different moisturizing lotions NOT the gel), plus your eye cream. Also, make sure you are drinking plenty of water! Your skin is dehydrated... Not dry. Since it is dehydrated it is overproducing oil to try to combat that. Hope this helped.
Skin care love. You definitely need to prep your skin in a better way. A proper skincare routine is key to having a beautiful makeup application :)
Haha, it just my personal preference .... some people really like them (but not me!) X
Lisa, I'm so glad you are sharing using your fingers for foundation application! My *friend* Bobbi Brown taught me this method and think there is a lot of merit to it.
Beautiful tutorial. I like the idea of starting in the center and blending your way out to avoid demarcation lines.
you and gossmakeupartist are the best make up gurus here on youtube!
lisa you are always so helpful, sincere and modest. you are beautiful x
Thank you for another great video. With my current foundation I'm finding I like to apply using fingers/hands over usually applying with a brush of some variation.
I agree with you on sponges. Personally I love using them, but if I don't wash it every 2 days it starts to smell like egg.
ziggylavigne I wash mine every time I use it. I prefer to use my fingers these days, but I'll always have Real Techniques sponge on hand.

I am a big fan of 'no makeup' makeup, but I always found that no matter what I tried, my foundation wouldn't dry properly, so my powder would always look cakey.
Now I know it's because I wasn't spreading it out and rubbing it in enough
Thank you for solving my problem!
I love these recent videos about foundation. U should do them for all the other makeup products
I have to agree. While I love that my raven hair makes my fair skin "pop" I feel like it can also make my skin look dull/ashy or even dead/sickly. I'd like to see a tutorial that helps to balance the skin and add a glowing or luminous effect. Something that makes dark haired and fair skinned women look very lively and vibrant. :) ty!
Finally, someone who gives clear, concise tips on applying foundation. Thank you so much! :D
Thank you so much for the tips. You explains very well and go step by step. It is easy to follow. You are the best make up teacher.
I used to find that too! no matter what foundation I used it was very visible, even though I used it very lightly. but now I use MAC face & body foundation or, if I want more coverage, I mix in a tiny bit of a heavier foundation and the finish I get is so beautiful! I couldn't live without MAC f&b - no matter how hard you look even in a magnifying mirror, you can't see the product!
I'm really loving these videos. You've made me think of a few things I never even thought of before and I'll definitely be thinking about my foundations differently. Thank you, Lisa! You really are an artist and I love that you're so willing to try to teach.
Thank you for this tutorial. I started using the foundation brush/blending method and I love the results. It has worked with both liquid and cream foundations.
I love how you make everything understandable and detailed for us mere mortals!
Thankyou Lisa, this is like Delia Smith's "how to cook" series! Back to basics x
oooh i love that brush! real techniques are the best brushes ever! they're so soft!!!!
I do have a video about primers from a couple of years ago ... I guess it probably is time to update that X
I followed your method today and I really liked the result. Thank you so much. I am learning so much from you!
Fabulous tips for people who are uneducated on how to apply foundation! Great job and thanks for doing this Lisa! :)
Thank u 4 such an educational series on foundation I've taken something new from every single one I've watched I love the way u teach U r such a professional (:
Your videos are a delight for ears and eyes ❤️❤️❤️
Came here from the tutorial you did on Huda after seeing that flawless foundation.
Thank you thank you thank you. Lisa I so love all of your videos and this one, especially, was incredibly helpful. I'm a woman of, ahem, a certain age, and I have learned how to apply make up the RIGHT way from you. Every morning as I apply make up before work I'm thinking of one of your videos. Keep the advice, guidance, and positive energy coming! xo
I love your videos! PLEASE consider doing a Q&A type video, so we can ask you questions about specific concerns or problems we have. :)
Your make up always looks so fresh and natural....something I always have a hard time achieving.
I totally appreciate your talent and the fact you are sharing so much knowledge with us!
@aeronamous that video is coming in the series x
I have oily skin, I use a tea tree toner before I put on foundation and with that it`s easier to make the foundation look smoother and 'cleaner'. And that toner prevents the makeup to glide into my pores as well.
Hi Lisa. You are so beautiful, elegant and well-spoken. Just wanted to thank you for making all these videos for us. It's amazing to learn from a pro like yourself for free! xox
Thanks Lisa, I've been applying foundation for years, I've just learned a new tip. I used to apply to cover acne, now just uneven skintone and scars. I absolutely do not need so much around my outer edges.
Apply foundation wherever you feel you need it, foundation will not prevent sweat from coming through X
Is there a video of makeup for brown or tan skin done by yoy
I've never thought to use another brush to buff the foundation out. Thank you for your advice as always Lisa x
For cleaning makeup sponges, I soak them in a mixture of some gentle tide clothing detergent and water in a bowl for awhile. It sounds quite silly and strange, but they come out completely clean looking and, despite my oily/sensitive skin, I've never had any problems using that as opposed to a face soap. In my experience, it actually works better.
Lisa, thank you for sharing your knowledge. Your explanations and tips are very helpfull.
I would give anything to spend 1 hour with you Lisa!! So much knowledge and technique I would love to learn. You are really beautiful :) thank you for the video
