Makeup brushes are our little crafty tools that help us all achieve a flawless makeup look. However, we all know that a hot topic is brush care. When you invest money in your makeup brushes then of course you want to take care of them. Cleaning and disinfecting your brushes help you in achieving not only flawless makeup application but also with skincare. Dirty brushes create obstacles in applying our favorite foundation streak free and not to mention it can clog our pores and create those unwanted blemishes.

So we have broken the brush care routine in two different routes. One is your daily cleaning and the second is your deep cleansing, which happens every 2-4 weeks. For your daily cleaning, all you need is makeup spray such as Cinema Makeup Secrets and a paper towel. Spray the bristles and then work the brush in circles and light strokes that fit the direction of how you use the brush for application of a product. Repeat the process until you feel that you have cleaned the product off. The brush dries instantaneously and can immediately reused. No time needed to air dry.

For your deep cleaning, all you need for a product is a brush shampoo. We have selected the Beauty Blender Solid because not only does it work for you beauty blender, but it also, gives impeccable results for any and all makeup brushes. The perk of this product is that it also, comes with a mini pink mat that helps give you a deep clean. With these products all you need to do is work the product into the bristles on the soap bar, making circles and light strokes. The strokes are in the direction of how you use the brush when applying product. Then when the soap has been saturated into the brush, make sure to repeat the gentle strokes against the mini Beauty Blender mat for a deeper clean. Rinse and Repeat until you have reached your desired clean. Then shape the bristles back into their natural shape and let them air dry.
