Brush cleaning!

Number one rule of makeup: CLEAN YOUR BRUSHES! This cannot be stressed enough! Brushes are a breeding ground for bacteria and other germs that cause breakouts and other skin problems.

 Below are some photos I took while cleaning mine just to show how dirty they get! I recommend doing this a couple times a week.

 Step one: Dish detergent and olive oil. To clean and to keep the bristles soft. Squeeze a quarter size amount of detergent and a dime size amount of oil onto a plate. You can use any brand of detergent and oil.

Before the cleansing of the brushes

Step two: Pablo Picaso the plate with the brush until satisfied and rinse with warm water. Repeat if necessary. 

This brush went through 3 cleanings like this.

After. So fresh and so clean clean!
