You should clean your makeup brushes at least once weekly and store them in a clean, dry place to keep your face healthy. The brushes collect dead skin cells and oils in addition to bits of blush, eye shadow, lip colour, and foundation creams.
Dirty makeup brushes can lead to acne breakouts, blackheads, and facial rashes. You do not want microbes invading your pores! You want a smooth, flawless complexion.
There is a difference between cleaning and washing your brushes. You can wash your brushes less frequently, but clean them weekly.
Silicon makeup brush cleaning mats or special gloves are available to clean brushes. The silicon mats or gloves have different textures that work between bristles to clean out microscopic bits and flakes of debris.
Clean brushes you use for mascara or eyelid shadow after every use. You cannot allow dirty brushes to make contact with your eyes!
You can use a special brush cleaning set, such as theFlora Finesses Brush Care Kit, or wash your makeup brushes in a cleaning solution of warm, soapy water.
The easiest method for brush cleaning is to pour a little liquid soap or mild shampoo into a glass or cup and add warm water. Swirl the brushes in the water to form some suds and release residue. You can also wash brushes separately or together. However, you may need to rinse them a few times to clean them completely. Rinse the brushes in clear water or under running water — never use hot water since it can ruin the bristles.
Carefully dry them with a makeup brush cleaning towel or paper towel and allow thick brushes to air dry.
Store brushes in a special roll-up pouch, including a makeup bag with a brush holder.
You can use an old jar, small basket, vase, or cup for a brush holder. Furthermore, you will find rotating brush holders, silicone holders, and other products to hold makeup brushes. The brushes should be spaced, so the bristles do not touch each other.
