A guide to Brush cleaning


With Brush cleaning it is a good idea to wash them every week or two depending on how often you use them. When cleaning the brushes it's best to use anti-bacterial soap/shampoo or hand wash, as this will leave them clean and dirt will clog your pores once using the brushes. I either like to use hand soap or use brush cleanser which i will show in a moment.

It is really simple to do and keeps the bristles in good condition so they will last longer.




It is also best when your brushes are drying to lay them on a flat surface so any water won't get in the bottom of the brush. This can cause a breakdown of the glue and the bristles may fall out! And we don't want that!
My favourite Makeup brushes are real techniques but i'd love to try more so if you have any recommendations please comment them below!

Mac brush cleanser
This cleanser is good, but there are many cheaper alternatives I already use like baby shampoo!

I use this mac brush cleanser if I don't have enough time to thoroughly clean them as it saves time if I need a specific brush. Buy it here






This is what they look like after a deep clean, Good as new! (excuse the 2nd along I use Estee Lauder double wear so it stains the brush A LOT!

Hope this has interested you, or helped in any way!
