How to remove liquid latex from a makeup brush

Before, we have posted a lot of articles to show that makeup brush is a kind of manual work. Since it is a manual work, there are many uncontrollable problems such as the glue overflowing during dipping.

 

If the liquid latex overflowed from the makeup brush ferrule, there must be some mark on the ferrule and handle, so how to deal with this problem? Scrap or repair them?

 

No matter large or small makeup brushes, high-grade or low-grade makeup brushes, dipping glue is an essential step, so if scrap the whole makeup brush just because of the glue mark, that is too ridiculous and no makeup brush factory can afford this unnecessary waste.

 

So the only solution is to repair them, to remove the liquid latex or mark from the makeup brush.

 

Here is the question: how to remove? By water or oil or anything else? You may consider dip the brush into hot water to remove the liquid latex, but you will only find that you damage the brushes but the liquid latex still there.

 

In fact, it is very simple, in the makeup brush factory; the workers usually use a kind of solution to remove the liquid latex, just dip some solution onto the gloves and then wipe the ferrule and handle. As such solution is harmful to human skin, so gloves are a must when removing the liquid latex.
