How do you thoroughly clean makeup brushes?

Answer 1

i use Johnson and Johnson's baby wash, because it is a mild detergent that is gentle on the integrity of the brush bristles. plus, it's cheaper than fancy special make-up brush cleansers. just wash under luke warm water, rise, pat dry to rid of water, then air dry to remove dampness.

Answer 2

Fancy solutions for cleansing are not necessary. You can use shampoo, dish soap, or facial soap.

-First, hold your brushes under warm, running water. Don't soak them or you risk losing bristles and loosening the glue that holds the tools together.

-Lather them up with soap of your choice and gently massage out makeup residue and dirt.

-Rinse thoroughly.

-Lay the tools flat and let them air-dry naturally, overnight if possible. If you wish, you can shape the brushes a bit to allow for easier drying and makeup application.
