A while ago I already read about vibrant applicators which came with some BB Creams and I guess everyone who is into Asian beauty and follows current trends heard about it as well. These applicators I am talking about are devices for applying BB Cream as well as foundation to get a flawless and even finish. Since BB Creams are hyped in Asia a lot of Korean brands are already selling vibrant applicators along with their BB Creams. Let's start with an overall introduction.
The idea behind a vibrant applicator in general isn't new, the first device of this kind was launched back in 2009 by Lancome. As far as I am informed it was only available in the US, I couldn't find it neither on the british nor on the german Lancome website. This battery-operated device vibrates over 7 000 time per minute and promises a seamless, even make-up result.
The vibrant applicators for BB Creams work in the same way. You either apply a small amount of Cream onto the sponge or spread a few dots on your face, next you start the applicator and sweep it over your face, the applicator will do the rest. Alright, let's have a closer look on different brands.

Overall
When you compare the different vibrant applicator every single one seem to promise the same thing, but the price can differ a lot. The best choices are the TOK TOK PRO TOUCH and IT'S SKIN SCULPT SKIN. With the first one you have different puffs which you can use for a variety of products, plus you can purchase the device separately. IT'S SKIN SCULPT SKIN doesn't provide you with extra puffs but they are available for a reasonable price and it comes with a BB Cream.
I still think about trying one of the above, but right now I am not quite sure which one and at the moment I like to apply my BB Cream with my fingers. （￣ー￣）
