How offend....




How offend do you wash your makeup brushes?

I wash 2 times a week AT LEAST... and spot cleaning with spray brush cleaner when needed. I deep clean every 2 weeks OR after I use my brushes on anyone else.
There are many ways to wash your brushes, but the KEY is the drying!!! Try to lay your brushes FLAT or blow-dry your brushes! Do not let your brushes dry in a jar standing up.... the water will travel down and rot the handle and loosen the glue.

Here are some tips from me:

* Spot clean brushes
* To avoid stains white haired brushes should be spot cleaned right after use.
* Store up, Dry flat.
* If you can't find MU brush cleaner try Baby Shampoo or Mild (oil free) face wash.
* Wash warm, Rinse cool.
* Try to remember to "turn" brushes when they are drying (like after 1 hour)
* Brushes you don't use a lot can collect dust and irritate your skin, try spot cleaning or wiping on a clean washcloth before use.


Here are some video links about brush cleaning:
