Week 13 - How to Clean Makeup Brushes
Do you clean your makeup brushes? It's recommended to give your brushes a good cleaning once a week or at least once a month. Well I'm guilty of not cleaning mine until the other day when I was on Pinterest and I saw a great tutorial on how to keep your brushes clean.
If you keep your brushes clean it will help to keep your skin clear and clean of any dirt, germs, and bacteria that can get into the brushes and then onto your skin. It also helps your makeup brushes last longer.
Baby Shampoo and water are all you need to keep your makeup brushes clean.
Here are the steps to cleaning your makeup brushes:
Step 1: Take a dime size of baby shampoo and put in your hand.
Step 2: Wet the brush and swirl the brush around in your hand cleaning the brush.
Step 3: Rinse the brush off any dirt.
Step 4: Pat dry the brush and form on a towel.
Step 5: Let brushes dry.
In the tutorial that I used it said to place the brushes on an incline to make the brushes dry faster. As you can see that is what I did.
The brushes were dry the next morning.
I hope you liked this makeup tip I shared with you this week and thanks for stopping by.
