How and what do you use to clean your make-up brushes????

Answer 1

To properly clean your cosmetic brushes of residues and bacteria, you can use warm water and a mild detergent (i.e. antibacterial soap, shampoo or a hand sanitizer). You can also use pre-packaged brush cleaning solutions found at places like Sephora, Bath and Body Works or Bare Essentials.

Answer 2

the quality brushes should be washed with shampoo and conditioner...me personally I use bio silk ...(should know when there clean when the water runs clear(brushes properly clean can cause you to have break outs)...when time for drying twist the ends to a point lay on a clean dry towel over night...next day I get a clean wash cloth and run the brush up and down in pendulum motion turning the brush clockwise ....if you do this once a week keep your brushes looking and feeling extremely soft

Answer 3

I use the MAC brush cleaner. But you can use a moisturizing shampoo, too. Either way, keep the bristles down so no water gets into the area where the bristles are affixed into the neck of the handle... otherwise it may rot and cause the bristles to fall out. Keep the bristles down and lather them up gently. Rinse well under the tap. And rest them, again, bristles angled down on the side of the sink to dry.

Answer 4

Colour FX has a great make up brush cleaner.

Dilute a few drops in a glass of water, then just swirl your brushes around. No need to rinse, just dry them with a paper towel and leave them flat to retain their shape.

It is inexpensive and since it is diluted, one bottle last forever!

i went to a MAC store last week and the makeup artist told me to clean my brush w/ water and shampoo....a little shampoo. then let it dry. shampoo because some brushes are made with real hair. after you wash, just let it dry. wash once a month.

Answer 6

I use the same soap that I wash my face with. (Make sense don't u think?) Then to dry them I take a rubber band and thread it from the back of a towel bar and stick the handle thru. This way I'm not getting it covered in filth that then goes on my face.

Answer 7

Wash them with shampoo. This works really good and is kind to your brushes.

Answer 8

Baby shampoo and cool water. If you use hot water it will melt the glue holding the bristles together in the handle.

Answer 10
