Are your makeup brushes in need of a little TLC? Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleaning your beloved brushes is not only essential for maintaining their quality but also for the health of your skin. So let’s dive right in! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, gather all your brushes and a gentle cleansing solution \u2013 baby shampoo works wonders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wet each brush under warm water, being careful to avoid the handle, as excessive moisture can loosen the glue holding the bristles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, apply a small amount of the cleansing solution to your palm and swirl the brush around in circular motions, gently loosening any product buildup. Rinse thoroughly under running water until no suds remain. Gently squeeze out any excess water from the bristles and reshape them to their original form. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, lay your brushes flat on a clean towel to dry overnight, ensuring they are not standing upright or resting on their bristles. And voila! Your makeup brushes are now fresh and ready for flawless application. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I promise, taking a few minutes to clean your brushes will make all the difference in your makeup routine \u2013 and your skin will thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
