So, is it worth it to spend the extra dollar and get the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge over the Ulta Super Blender? I think you won't be surprised to hear that I believe it is - while the Ulta sponge seems just like any other regular make-up sponge, the Real Techniques has more unique properties and performs better in applying liquid or cream foundation. No setting/finishing powder or highlighter in both photos.

Left: Face with Graftobian Hi-Def in Buff + Aurora all over, Rimmel Match Perfection under the eyes, NYC blush on the cheeks and brows filled in. I also applied and blended my cream blush (NYC Blushable Creme Stick in Big Apple Blush) with the sponge as well.

The sponge worked the product into the skin well, giving good coverage but a more natural, satin finish the whole process wasn't very quick but I think the flawless, long-wearing result was worth spending a bit more time. I prefer to use make-up sponges when working with thicker, fuller coverage bases, as they tend to be rather difficult to apply otherwise. In the face shots, you can see how a medium/full coverage cream foundation ( Graftobian Hi-Def Glamour Creme, reviewed here) looks applied with the Real Techniques sponge.
