Something You Dont Know About Makeup Brushes

·  DON’T try to boil your brushes to sterilize them. There is never any need to boil your brushes and doing so could actually ruin them.

·  Many professional beauty salons and websites offer cleaning products specifically designed to clean your make-up brushes. While we don’t feel there’s anything wrong about using these products, the shampoo/tea tree oil mixture works quite well and is much less expensive than many of the specialized products for sale.

·  If your makeup brush doesn’t come clean even after using the above described method, it may be time to replace your brush.

·  It is generally not a good idea to share makeup brushes as it is an easy way to also share bacteria that can lead to infection.

·  When washing your brushes, avoid scrubbing them too harshly or you may loosen the bristles.

·  Be sure to check any literature that came with your makeup brushes regarding any specialized or recommended methods of cleaning.

·  Make sure the shampoo you choose to use is for normal hair and does not contain conditioner. Daily clarifying shampoos are a good choice.

·  Don’t skip the Tea Tree oil—it is a great anti-bacterial, anti-fungal agent. Tea Tree oil is an all-natural substance with a host of beneficial uses.

·  Make sure your brushes are completely dry before using them again.
