Maltiz Powder Sponge

Microfiber-wrapped powder sponge with a soft, velvety finish

The Maltese Powder Sponge is wrapped in densely woven microfiber. Ultra-fine fibers gently grip powder particles and press them seamlessly onto skin without any fallout. Made from polyurethane and embossed with an adorable Maltese character, it's a collectible addition to any makeup pouch.

Multi-use from pressed powder to foundation

It pairs especially well with pressed powder compacts. Even on oily areas, it delivers a soft, powdery finish without caking. When skin feels dry, dampen the sponge and squeeze out excess water before use—it creates a hydrated yet velvety texture. You can also use it with foundation for a dewy, glass-skin effect. When wet, the sponge expands to about 1.5 times its original size.

Three cutting surfaces for targeted application

At 4.5 × 6 cm, the sponge features three distinct surfaces you can use depending on the area.

Edge cutting: For precise application on narrow areas like the sides of the nose and under the eyes
Flat edge: For quick, even coverage across larger areas like the cheeks and forehead
Rounded surface: For tapping and bouncing blush onto skin for uniform color payoff

It reaches tricky spots like the T-zone, around the eyes, corners of the mouth, and creases of the nose with precision, making it easy to use even for makeup beginners.

Using the microfiber sponge to finish your setting step

After completing your base with foundation and concealer, use this sponge in the final setting stage. It pairs beautifully with pressed powder to mattify oil-prone areas like the T-zone, sides of the nose, and under-eyes.

Use different edges for different areas

• Edge-cut side: Press into narrow areas like the sides of the nose and under-eyes for precise touch-ups
• Flat edge side: Quickly set larger areas like the cheeks and forehead
• Rounded side: Tap on blush for even color payoff

Load the sponge with powder, then gently press and tap onto skin for seamless adherence without fallout.

Dampen with water for a dewy finish

If a fully matte finish feels too dry, dampen the sponge with water, press it into a towel to remove excess moisture, then use as usual. You'll get a hydrating yet soft-matte result. When wet, the sponge expands to about 1.5 times its original size, covering more surface area.

Best used with powder formulas

The microfiber material grips powder particles tightly, making it ideal for use with pressed powder or loose powder. You can also apply foundation with it for a dewy, luminous makeup look.

Clean and store gently

After use, rinse gently in lukewarm water with a mild cleanser by swirling softly. Do not wring—press the sponge onto a towel to remove water, then air-dry naturally. The small hole at the bottom of the product is part of the manufacturing process and not a defect. Store in a well-ventilated area to extend its lifespan.
