HOW I WASH MY BRUSHES

I get a lot of questions on how I wash my brushes! Everything from what products do I use and how often do I wash them to if I spot clean or just deep clean. I thought it would be helpful to make a video and write about everything I do to keep my brushes nice and washed but still in great quality! If you use the right products, washing your brushes doesn't have to be a difficult task or damage the condition of them. Keep reading to find out what I use, my techniques and a few tips.

WHAT I USE:

MAC Brush Cleanser

You can buy this product at any MAC counter and I definitely recommend checking it out! It's great for spot cleaning!

Johnson's Baby Conditioning Shampoo

To deep cleanse my brushes, I use baby shampoo! I have had such a great experience using this product for the past two years as it not only works amazingly in washing every single bit of product out but it is also really affordable!

TECHNIQUE:

I wash my brushes using three simple steps.

1. Add some baby shampoo to the palm of your hand and depending on the density of your brush; add some water to your hand or your actual brush. 

2. Work the baby shampoo into the brush hairs and swirl it around in the palm of your hand.

3. Rinse the brush off and remove any excess water from the bristles by wringing it out then place it on a towel to dry.

TIPS:

* Try washing more than one brush at a time.
* Make sure that you tilt your brush downwards when underneath running water so no moisturise gets inside of the handle.
* If all of the product doesn't come out first go, take the time to repeat the washing process to ensure that it's completely clean.
* Shape your brush the way you like it before leaving it on a towel to dry. 

So that's everything I do to wash my brushes, I hope you found this helpful!
