2025-07-20

As a makeup newbie, I was overwhelmed by the endless options for brushes, beauty blenders, and other essentials—until I discovered Sugargoo’s affordable and high-quality spreadsheet! Here’s my experience shopping for tools via Sugargoo’s cross-border service, plus tips to help fellow beginners.

My haul: 5-piece brush set, silicone sponge, and eyelash curler from Sugargoo.

1. What I Bought & First Impressions

Tapered Foundation Brush

Dual-ended Eye Brush Set: The fluffy blending brush is perfect for smokey eyes. Pro tip: Check the density—mine had 1.5mm bristle gaps for ideal powder pickup.

Silicone Makeup Sponge: Unlike traditional beauty blenders, this stays clean longer. Surprisingly bouncy texture!
