Vent: Found out the bacteria count in a used makeup sponge is higher than a toilet seat

I read a study from a cosmetology board site last night that said a sponge used for a week has more bacteria than a toilet seat, and now I'm second-guessing every beauty blender I've ever lent to a client has anyone else seen this stat and changed how you sanitize your tools?

Oh man, I used to just wash mine with soap and call it good. But yeah, that stat got me too, now I'm way more careful about swapping them out way sooner.

Yeah I just started tossing sponges after a few uses.
