How To : Clean Makeup Brushes
Assalamulaikum and hello there! :)
Today I want to talk about brush cleaning. I am one of those people who are sooooooooo lazy to clean their brushes. Hence I believe that my skin problems keep appearing is caused by not cleaning my makeup brushes. I used to clean my brushes using Elianto's brush cleanser but I'm out of it. So I decided to use anything I have at home. Wanna know how I clean my brush? Well come on in..... ;)
1. Pour an amount of baby shampoo and olive oil in the same plate. Next to one another. Depends on how many brushes you need to clean.
2) Get you brush and swirl into mixture. Sort of mixing them together.
3) Swirl the brush onto your silicon pad until all those yuckiness come out.
7) Finally, lay down your brushes like the photo below. Make sure to NOT place your brushes in a cup (standing position) because the water from the bristles will go into the handles and will loosen up the glue (the one that connects the handle and the bristles)

You will need :
1) Your makeup brushes, of course. hehe
2) A silicone pad. I bought this at Daiso (read my haul) for the purpose to clean my brushes. I saw the idea on someone's instagram, I don't remember who was it. This is sort of give you the same purpose as the Sigma Brush Cleaner (you know the silicone mitten ones which is so expensive!)
3) Baby Shampoo. I used Pureen, it's the only one in my bathroom. Haha but I'm going to get the Baby Johnson's shampoo after this. I'm using a baby shampoo because I don't want a cleanser that is too harsh and may dry out my brushes.
4) A deep plate to mix the shampoo and olive oil.
5) Extra virgin olive oil to keep the bristles soft.
6) I forgotten about this. hehe a napkin or a towel to place the brushes after cleaning. :D

3) Swirl the brush onto your silicon pad until all those yuckiness come out.
4) After you are done abusing your brush, swirl it under running water till all the foam is gone. :D
5) Gently squeeze out all the water from your brush. I like to shape them back to their original condition so that it will not be so out of the place. Place them on a napkin and repeat the steps until all your brushes are clean.
6) By placing the brushes on a napkin, it's easier to transport them from the bathroom to your room.
This methods work well with sponges too!
7) Finally, lay down your brushes like the photo below. Make sure to NOT place your brushes in a cup (standing position) because the water from the bristles will go into the handles and will loosen up the glue (the one that connects the handle and the bristles)
This is how I clean my makeup brush. How do you clean yours? Post a link in my comment box if you have made a post on brush cleaning, would love to check that out. :)
