Cleaning makeup brushes

What good is a makeup brush in bad condition? We don't want our brushes to get sticky or start losing hairs or their shape! We also don't want them to be a home for bacteria that could cause eye or skin infections. Yuck!

Cleaning your brushes is important for your skin and helps your brushes last longer. People have different methods of cleaning and organizing my brushes. Here's my method:

1) I get the bristles wet, then use a little bit of shampoo on the bristles and gently work the lather in.

2) Rinse the bristles.

3) Lay brushes to dry on a towel.

4) Put brushes back in case.

Don't wet the metal barrel on the brush, or store brushes upright while wet, because bristles may start to shed. Let them air dry completely as they lay on the towel before storing them in your brush case or upright in a cup.
