So earlier i oppened the Beauty blender/face sponge ( im confused about those 2 ) that my mom bought for me from delivery. i decided to put hot water in a cup, then dipped the sponge in it… (The sponge came with a container because i wanted it to have one) ofcourse i squeezed it then let off all of the water inside, The thing is, i put it back into its cointainer when it was still moist. (Which is mostly the part where im wrong)

Later my mom came then asked me why it’s still moist, i told here the things i did then she blabbed/scolded me about how you’re not supposed to wash “freshly delivered” Sponges and how it will give me a face infection now that I’ve washed it.

Was there something i did wrong? Is my mom right? If she is, please do enlighten me about sponges. (P.s excuse my bad grammar I’m asian)
