Here is my way of cleaning my makeup brushes, which will help your brushes to last longer and be used to their highest potential! When your brush is clean your makeup will go on so much more smooth and even. I prefer to use MAC brush cleanser which is so gentle on your brushes and not too expensive either! Here are some tips when washing your makeup brushes:

- Use Lukewarm water versus hot or cold.

- Never use too much water, so that the water will not surpass the metal bracket of the brush.

- Use a gentle gel face wash or I prefer the MAC brush cleanse because it is so gentle.

- Give your brushes a deep cleanse at least once a month.

- Do not use dish soap or any harsh cleansers on your brushes.

- Soaking your brushes is not a good idea because the water can get into the metal bracket and break up the glue that holds the bristles together.

- Be gentle and do not dig your brush into the container when cleaning, just swish:)

- Rinse your brushes clean and squeeze out the excess water.

-Lay flat to dry, so again the water does not get into the metal bracket of the brush.

So now it is time to go clean your brushes! You know your poor brushes need a good cleaning:)
