- DO invest in a brush shampoo. Simply rinse the hair of the makeup brush with lukewarm water, swirl the brush in the shampoo and then rinse once more with lukewarm water. If there’s a lot of pigment, you may need to repeat the shampoo and rinse cycle. Reshape the brush hairs and lay the brush flat to dry. Some great alternatives to a brush shampoo include baby shampoo (try Johnson’s Baby Shampoo) or gentle facial cleansers (Cetaphil works great). If you use one of these methods, be sure to dilute the shampoo or facial cleanser with warm water before cleaning your brushes.
- DON’T use hand soap to clean your makeup brushes. Even more generally, don’t use ANY product that you wouldn’t use on your hair or face. Hand soap, as an example, is too harsh for the brushes and can cause them to dry and shed bristles.
- DO be gentle when cleaning your brushes. Treat the hair on your brush the same way that you treat the hair on your head — you don’t want any of those bristles falling out!
- DON’T soak your brushes in the sink. When cleaning your makeup brushes, it is important to think RINSE, not SOAK, and focus on the hair of the brush. If you immerse the entire brush in lukewarm water, the adhesive will dissolve over time, and your brush won’t last. For the best results, clean your brushes weekly or, at the very least, bi-weekly. Your makeup brushes are an investment and cleaning them is so inexpensive, so there’s no reason to put it off! Don’t let bacteria ruin your brushes and your skin.
