The Molly Cosmetics StarDust SiliSponge Is the Glittery Beauty Tool of Your Dreams

We've never seen a beauty tool go through as many restocks as the SiliSponge. It has already sold out nine—yes, nine—times in the past month, and soon, the Molly Cosmetics StarDust SiliSponge is sure to be another highly sought after item from the Hong Kong-based company. Yesterday, they announced on social media that a limited-edition version of their cult-favorite silicone sponge is launching next month. Unlike the OG translucent one, this one is gray tinted and flecked with silver glitter. So basically, Molly Cosmetics knew what they were doing when they named the new sponge StarDust. It definitely has major celestial vibes, and of course, we need the StarDust SiliSponge just as much as the clear one.

Perhaps the even bigger news here is that the Molly Cosmetics StarDust SiliSponge is actually a different shape from its predecessor. The first was an oblong oval; the newbie is a perfect circle. That's smart, because it means the sponge can slide easily into most cushion compacts. This is a major plus because the complimentary sponges that usually accompany the base product gets pretty grimy after a couple days of continued use, and this can create breeding grounds for fungus, bacteria, and other skin-irritating grunge. (As we mention in our original post on SiliSponge, the silicone core of the blender is housed in an exterior of the flexible, grease, and oil resistant thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), meaning it's less likely to harbor any nasties anyway. But even if it were to pick-up something sinister, the SiliSponge is probably the easiest beauty tool to clean (let's be real, washing brushes is the worst), so the StarDust edition could help keep your beauty routine more hygienic. We'll also just remind you that because the exterior also isn't absorbent like the , you'll use less of whatever it is that you're spackling on. Suffice to say, there's a lot of upside to this glittery little silicone pancake.

Molly Cosmetics posted a video on Instagram to show just how slim it is. I'm hoping it will fit into my current go-to, the Belief Moisturizing Bomb Cushion Compact.

In each social media post, Molly Cosmetics wrote that the limited edition product will go live in early January for $14.90. Right now, they are waiting on the pouches for the sponges to be completed. Two weeks isn't too bad of a wait, right? Maybe it's your perfect pick-me-up for the post holiday blues.
