Tips for Cleaning Makeup Brushes.

Wet brush and apply a drop or two of facial cleanser, shampoo, or dish washing soap directly to brush. Work into brush for a minute or so and rinse until water runs clear.

There are professional brush cleaners which some have found to be fast, quick to dry and effective. They are more costly than using what you already have on hand but they are available. Make sure to choose an environmentally friendly variety with no animal testing on the product or the ingredients.

Keep those brushes clean. Bacteria can build up on them.
