Make-up Brush Cleanliness

I wanted to post this long time ago , but keep forgetting .

Make-up is just so important , not really to everyone .
I notice most of my friends , they didn't clean their make-up tools .
I see their make-up tools are damn dirty . (Ewww.....)
I bet they didn't wash , ever since they buy it .

When I ask :" Did you wash you make-up tools ?"
They said :" No... Need to wash meh ?"

OMG . Of course is a must man .
If not your face will looks like moon surface .

Imagine those hole on your face ...
EWWWWW~~~~!

Now I going to show you HOW to clean your make-up tools .

Way to clean if for :

Normal make-up brush 

Two sided make-up brush 

Powder puff

Drying process

Normal Make-up Brush 

*Left to right*
Kabuki brush , angle brush , eye-shadow brush . 

This is just the normal brush that I have .

Angle brush and eye-shadow is something that we always apply very close to our eyes .

If you didn't clean it , might cause infection to your eyes .

Beware of that !!

For kabuki brush and eye-shadow brush .
Rinse it with running water .

I used shampoo to clean it .
Use a mild shampoo or you may use Johnson Baby bath to clean it .

Do circular motion in the middle of your palm .

Rinse with running water again and squeeze until it dry .

Now , push the brush to a side . (slanted)
then place it on the towel .

NEVER ever place you brush like this .
It will cause to glue to loosen .
then your brush "hair" will come out .

As for the angle brush .
Is the same way of washing this kabuki and eye-shadow brush .

The only different is ,
clean it left and right instate of circular motion  .
Saw the dirt coming out ... ?

Rinse it with running water .

Two Sided Make-up Brush

Up next , are the two sided make-up brush .
Cleaning way is the same .
The only different way to clean it , is that you have to choose one side to clean it first .
The reason is ,  If you wet the both side , either one side will be drying up right .

When you try to dry it .
You will need to place the brush slanted in order to let the water flow down .
If you clean the both side .
Either one side will be flowing into your brush which might make the glue loosen . (after a long term)
Then your brush "hair" will came off .

Powder Puff

Cleanliness of powder puff is very important .

You going to put loose powder or any other powder .
Which you need to pad it all over your face .Sometimes you didn't wipe your sweat and put powder on your face and then you place it back in your powder case .You can imagine how disgusting is that . Bacteria is all transfer to your powder !!!

As usual , rinse with water .

Wash with mild shampoo or Johnson Baby bath .

SQUEEZE and squeeze until you saw those dirt coming off . 

rinse it with water again .

TADA !!!
Now is so clean already .

Back to Top

Drying process

Now is the drying process .

Is simple .

Actually got a few way . But I think this is the best way to dry it .

For the puff puff .
Use hair dryer to dry it .

Roll your towel ...

Place all your brush on the towel .
Let the water flow downwards .
Just let it dry .
OR !!!!

In order to let it dry fast .
Use hair dryer .
Cold air !!! 

Now all your tools are as new as before .

When you buy new make-up brush , please wash it also .

Is very dirty when it came out from the factory .

If you want to look pretty , stay healthy and have a long lasting brush . Clean it and take-care properly .

Next time will show you how to clean the other tools like eyelash curler , fake lashes , mascara and so on .

Hope you learn something new .
