When was the last time you cleaned your makeup brushes? Or maybe you never cleaned your brushes ever since you bought them?
- Unhygienic
- Can cause breakouts
- Breeding ground of bacteria
- They smell bad
- They look dirty
Now is the time to save your face. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to clean makeup brushes.
MATERIALS NEEDED
- 1 clean cloth or tissue paper
- 1 mug
- 1 cup (transparent)
- A makeup brush cleaner solution
STEP 1
Pour the makeup brush cleaner solution to the cup. Just pour the proper amount of solution you think you need to clean all your brushes. I am using here Mineral Fusion Brush Cleaner.
STEP 2
Dip the tip of your brush to the brush cleaner solution.
STEP 3
Brush it on a clean tissue paper or cloth. You will see the makeup products transfer to the cloth/tissue paper. Brush it repeatedly until you notice your brush becomes clean.
STEP 4
Let your brushes dry overnight with your brushes facing down or lying flat (not like the picture below because the water will loosen up the glue holding the brush bristles). *Special thanks to an Anonymous commentator* =)
You can use them the next morning. But before you apply any product on your brush, wipe it for the last time on a clean cloth or a tissue paper to ensure the brush cleaner solution will not get on to your face.
