How to Properly Clean Your Makeup Brushes


Tuesday, August 26, 2008

Ever wonder why your face breaks out when wearing makeup or why your makeup application doesn’t go on evenly? Did you ever think that your makeup brushes could be the culprit?

Truth is, makeup brushes can collect lots of dirt, oil, and bacteria after a long period of usage. So, it is essential to frequently wash your brushes so your face can be clean and healthy. Bacteria is one factor that people should be aware of when using makeup brushes. Bacteria loves to breed in brushes which will eventually cause breakouts and acne so cleaning them shouldn’t be taken lightly. You want to maintain a good hygiene to help keep your skin clear so remember to clean your makeup brushes.

Here are a few tips to properly clean your makeup brushes. First you’ll need:

  • Towel
  • All your brushes (eyeshadow, makeup, blush)
  • Shampoo
  • Vinegar
  • Water
  1. First, run all your brushes under the sink faucet in warm water.
  2. Clean them by using a small amount of shampoo, work in a lather, then rinse. (Makeup brushes are made out of hair so shampoo would be a great choice.)
  3. Continue to shampoo and rinse until there’s no more color from the brush.
  4. Make a mixture of vinegar and water in a bowl. 2 parts water and 1 part vinegar.
  5. Dip the brushes in the mixture for a couple of seconds and remove. (This will disinfect the brushes.)
  6. Lastly, place brushes on top of towel and allow them to air dry.

There are other alternatives you can use to clean your brushes. Several inexpensive brush cleaners are available at your nearest beauty stores. They are just as effective and will give your brushes that proper cleaning. I prefer the method above but either one will work. Your brushes should also be cleaned once a week. Doing so will keep your face clear and give your makeup a flawless look.
