Quick Cleaning
You should clean your make up brushes before each use, especially if you are a make-up artist and are using them on several clients.
First, fold a paper towel in half and then in half again. Pour your favorite brush cleaner directly onto the paper towel and lightly sweep the brushes back and forth until all make-up residue is removed and brush hair is completely clean.

Deep Cleaning
At least once every two weeks your make-up brushes should be deeply cleaned. If you are a make-up artist, we recommend deep cleaning at the end of every day.
Start by wetting the hair on the bottom of the ferrule. Take care to avoid getting the handle above the ferrule wet as this can cause the glue to loosen up and the handles to break off. Then, wash the brush hair thoroughly with an antibacterial soap or shampoo. You can also add some conditioner, to help maintain softness. Rinse the bristles completely to make sure all residues are gone.
When finished, lay the brushes flat on a towel and allow
to dry overnight. |
