MAKEUP MONDAY: HOW TO CLEAN YOUR MAKEUP BRUSHES!!

Hi Guys and Welcome to MY MAKEUP MONDAY BLOG, i hope you are all having a great day. How was everyone's weekend, i hope you all had a lovely one. So for today's MAKEUP MONDAY BLOG, i'm going to be sharing with all of you how i clean my everyday Makeup Brushes.

Generally i would usually wash my everyday Makeup Brushes every 2 weeks or so depending on how badly they need to be cleaned. The method i use to clean them leaves my brushes feeling super soft and fluffy, i do love the way they feel after they have been cleaned. Cleaning your Makeup Brushes is sooooo important. To be honest with you all, its kinda really bad using dirty Makeup Brushes on your skin. Just think of the amounts of bacteria that is filling up on your Makeup Brushes if you don't wash or clean them regularly.. :-( Defiantly not all that nice.  So come on girls lets get them Makeup Brushes and give them a good wash......

STEP 1: First take a Small/Medium Bowl, some Baby Shampoo/Baby Bath (Mild, Soap Free, Hypoallergenic), a Towel and of course your Makeup Brushes. (I have had to use this Baby Bath from Cussons Mum & Me as i didn't have any Baby Shampoo handy)

STEP 2: Take your Small/Medium Bowl and add a small amount of Baby Shampoo/Baby Bath into it.

STEP 3: Next add some hot water to your Small/Medium Bowl, do add a little cold water to cool it down a bit.

STEP 4: Then place all your Makeup Brushes into your Small/Medium Bowl, or as many as you fit from the picture below....

STEP 5: Leave your Makeup Brushes to rest in the bowl for a couple of minutes (as you can see from the picture below, i have had to take some of my makeup brushes out because there wasn't enough room). Once you have left them to rest in the bowl, now twirl the brushes around in the water, this will show how much dirt is really on those brushes (not nice at all).

STEP 6: If you have Foundation Brushes, they might need to be left for a bit longer as they do consume a lot of dirt within the brush.

STEP 7: Next rinse each brush in cold water, this will get rid of any dirt that might still be on your Makeup Brushes.

STEP 8: Now leave your Makeup Brushes to dry, i usually place mine on the draining board to dry for a while, then i will eventually move them on to the towel to dry overnight. (you can also leave them on a radiator to dry too)

STEP 9: If you feel that your Makeup Brushes are taking a long time to dry or if you need to use them straight away, then use your Hairdryer to dry them, i find this really handy as they dry so quick. ( If you do decided to dry them using a Hairdryer, dry them with the handle part of the brush facing you with the bristle end facing the other way, as this will dry them keeping the same shape as they were before you washed them).

And your done....

Now you have SUPER SOFT MAKEUP BRUSHES....(you only have another 2 weeks till you have to wash them again)
