I remember back in my Ulta days I would constantly have my clients ask me how should I wash my makeup brushes? How do I wash them and what should I use? I just always remember breaking it down to them as my brush 101 and I'm going to do the same thing for you.
How often should I wash my brushes? My answer was always at least once a week, at least. Trust me girl, I have my weeks where I slip up and totally forget to wash my brushes. Hey, it happens. Oh and I'm not just talking about a little spray of brush cleaner every so often. No ma'am. I'm talking about a deep clean for your brushes...with soap and water...and letting them dry overnight.
What should I use to clean them? Whatever you use to wash you face will work for your brushes. If anything, that benefits your skin. You can also use a brush cleaner to help you clean your brushes as you go. This brush cleaner from IT Cosmetics for ULTA is EVERYTHING. Literally, your makeup will melt off your brush.
I do recommend all my clients to deeply wash their makeup brush at least one a week. Sure giving them a spray in between works but give your brushes a bath every once and a while! I use purity by philosophy to deep clean my brushes. I've been using this facial cleanser for years! However I just recently switched to a brand new cleanser. Hence the skincare blogpost! But since I loved it so much I ordered a huge bottle of it from QVC. I'm not one to waste product so now I use it to wash my brushes.
