Cleaning Your Brushes

Cleaning your brushes is actually important. Your makeup brushes are full of old makeup and dead skin cells. And, when you think about it, do you really want to put that onto the sensitive skin on your face? It just sounds gross lol.

I know of two different ways to clean your brushes without having to buy the solution. These are easy to do with products that everyone has around the house.


1. Is by mixing a small bit of Olive Oil and Anti-Bacterial Soap.


Dip the tip of your brush in it and gently wash your brush in warm water until the water is clean.


2. Use your shampoo and conditioner. And just do as I wrote above to wash.

I clean my brushes twice a month. But apparently it should be more than that. For hygienic reasons. And it also depends on how often you use your brushes, I tend to use my hands more often. So you're the best person to judge how often they need to be cleaned.


**On a side note: sometimes brushes don't have what they're supposed to be used for. My first brushes didn't and I was so lost. The easiest thing to do is to take a sharpie and label away!


And then in the future, buy brushes that say what they're for lol.
