Make-up brushes (cleaning question)

How do you clean your brushes? (what do you use)

and, how often do you clean them?

Re: Make-up brushes (cleaning question)

I have MAC brushes, and there's a cleaner that they sell you can use to clean your shadow brush with on a daily or weekly basis.

I don't use it, b/c I clean my brushes every two weeks (depends how much you use them) with water and dish-soap (like dove/dial, etc.) I use a drop of the dishsoap and work it through the brush until the water runs clean.

Re: Make-up brushes (cleaning question)

I wash then with baby shampoo or anitbacterial dial hand soap every so often...not nearly enough...

I soak them in warm water and them work the soap through, then rinse till clear...

I need new ones though.

I use "brush off", it's in a spray bottle. very easy to use.

I clean them a few times a month.

I bought a brush cleaner that comes in a spray bottle from Ulta. I spray it on and rinse with warm water.

anti-bacterial soap and warm water. The foundation brush is the dirtiest usually.

I use hand soap and water, when I think of it. I used to do it a lot more regularly, probably once a week.
