Questions:
How do you clean makeup brushes? What do you clean them with and how often should you clean them?
Answer:
I clean my makeup brushes with a little bit of hand soap. I'm sure there are much more expensive cleaners that you could buy but a little bit of liquid hand soap works just fine. What I do is place a little bit of soap on my finger and then I get my brush wet and then rub it back and forth on my finger until I don't see anymore color coming out. Depending on how dirty the brush is you might have to do this a couple of times. Then I rinse the brush well with a slow stream of water and then lay them on the counter to dry. Make sure that they are completely dry before using them!
You should clean your make up brushes at least once per month. You should actually do it more than that but at the very least once a month is good.
Thanks so much! You are amazing!!

Yay! So I've been doing it right - or at least acceptable. Its crazy but I love cleaning my makeup brushes and watching the makeup wash away down the drain :)
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what I do! One question though, what soap do you use? I use ivory (which is pure and simple), but I don't like the smell it leaves. It would be nice to have something with a slightly nicer fragrance.
ReplyDeleteusing shampoo works well too, since most brushes are hair of some type. I always make sure to lie mine flat to dry (which I think you said) so the water doesn't warp the handles. You have so many good tips and tricks ;)
