We work so hard to keep our skin as clear and radiant as possible. It's amazing that we often overlook the one thing under our noses that could be causing troubled skin . . .our cosmetic brushes! Those beautiful brushes that you use everyday pick up dirt from your face, bathroom counter and make-up bag. These nasties then get transferred to your makeup or your face and can be culprit number one in causing breakouts!
So, what's a girl to do? Clean those brushes! We recommend that you clean your cosmetic brushes every few days with our Quick Dry Brush Spray and wash them every 1-2 weeks with our Brush Shampoo. Remember to cleanse your brushes to ensure clean, clear skin and a beautiful complexion!

Caring for your cosmetic brush investment is much easier than most people realize. I typically wash all my brushes every two weeks.

2. Lather the soap throughout the bristles for a few seconds like you would when shampooing your hair. I like to swish it around with a little water in my palm to work off any stubborn eye shadow or concealer.

3. When shampoo and water are free of debris. rinse the bristles thoroughly under lukewarm running water.

4. Very gentle squeeze the excess water out, reshape the bristles to their normal shape, and lay the brush on the towel in the flat position.

The brush must be dried flat for two reasons

1. If the brush is upright, any excess water will run down into the brush and break down the glue that is holding the bristles in place.

2. The bristles will bend and flop over into a completely different shape, making normal makeup application very difficult.

We recommend you clean your brushes at night so they are completely dry and ready to go in the morning. Be careful not to over wash your brushes, as this can make the bristles brittle and scratchy. If you find you are using multiple colours that require the brush to be clean, either consider purchasing more than one of the brushes you use most often, or purchase our Quick Dry Brush Spray for a quick clean…not to be confused with a quick wash!
