How To Maintain Your Make Up Brushes!!

I have always had bad skin so I have to make sure to keep my brushes clean. The main reason I use brushes is because so much bacteria gets on your hands and then when you touch your face it spreads and its not good for your skin, also the heat from your hands aggravates it. I never use sponges because they hold so much bacteria, if you do use them wash them in warm soapy water after use and dispose of them every couple of weeks.

How i clean my brushes!!
I always use Johnson's baby shampoo and warm water to clean them. I wash my foundation brush once a week sometimes more depending on how bad my skin gets. For the eyeshadow brushes i wash them after i use them, there are times i get too lazy to wash them mostly on a night out lol. After you have washed them leave them lying on their side on a towel, if you put them upright the water will run down and loosen the glue.

Tips:
  • Use a mild shampoo.
  • Wash foundation brush once a week.
  • If you don't use brushes wash your hands before applying foundation.
  • Wash eyeshadow brushes 2-3 times a week.
  • Use warm water.
  • Let brushes dry on their side.
  • Never leave them to dry upright.

Hope this helped :)
