Can you remember the last time you cleaned your makeup brushes? Chances are your brushes could use a cleaning.
Cleaning your makeup brushes regularly prevents them from becoming a breeding ground for bacteria.
There are several products that you can use to clean your brushes. For example, you have special brush cleansers. You can also use a drop of mild shampoo. Olive oil is useful for removing stubborn makeup residue. You can also mix a little olive oil with the shampoo.
Have a cloth or towel and brush cleaner handy. If necessary, wipe the worst make-up residue off the brushes with kitchen roll and wet the brushes.
Take a little cleanser or shampoo in your palm and run your brushes through it until all the dirt is gone. Then rinse them well.

Depending on the size of your brushes, they may take a few hours to dry. You can optionally clean the handles of your brushes afterwards with denatured alcohol.
