instead of holding your blending clean like a pen or pencil on the ferrule (the metal part on the end with the clean head), try holding it waaay back on the other end instead.
Just to try it.

You may discover yourself naturally applying less pressure on the clean head as well as making nice, soft circles with the bristles.
Sometimes when I hold the clean up near the ferrule, aka the common way, I press truly difficult without even realizing it, like, I dunno…I’m trying to actually force the eyeshadow bits into my skin. Holding the clean from the other end, though, encourages lighter pressure, which makes for well diffused eyeshadows as well as beautiful gradients.

It’s one of those suggestions I chosen up somewhere along the method however quickly failed to remember about (whoops!), however I’ve started doing it again, as well as now (again!) blending is a totally different world. I feel like the clean is doing the work now, instead of my fingers as well as wrist, if that makes any type of sense. try it sometime! as well as let me understand exactly how it goes.
