Cleaning your make up brushes like a pro....

March 25, 2013

Cleaning your make-up brushes is a rather boring task but its a must for us make up addicts! Cleaning regularly keeps dirt and bacteria gone which hopefully means no break outs for our lovely skin! I try to clean mine every week.

You can use an instant brush cleaner for a quick cleans or to give them a thorough cleanse, wash them with shampoo and leave overnight to dry (my personal fave).

Try not to get any water on the handle of the brush or the part that holds the brush fibres to the handle as this can damage the brush fibres and they can fall apart.

There are a few good brush cleaners out there and you only need a little for each brush. You simply pour some cleaner into a dish and dip each brush gently into the product.

Alternatively you can put some mild shampoo or washing up liquid into the palm of your hand, swirl your brush into it then rinse clean with water. You can also use a little conditioner to make them super soft.
