How to Clean Makeup Brushes
1. You can choose a special hairbrush cleaner or use gentle cleaning products (such as baby shampoo) for cleaning. When using a hairbrush cleaner, squeeze a coin-sized amount of cleaning paste onto the makeup brush after soaking it, gently rub it, and then rinse it with cold water.
2. Do not clean in the opposite direction of the hair.
3. After cleaning, use a facial tissue or makeup cotton pad to gently press the bristles to quickly drain the water. Remember not to twist the bristles, which could cause them to become loose or even shed.
4. After controlling the moisture, you can hang the makeup brush to let the bristles dry naturally with the hair down. Do not use a hair dryer to heat dry or expose it to direct sunlight, to avoid damaging the material.
How to Store Makeup Brushes
1. Most makeup will come with corresponding makeup bags, and you can also purchase them based on the number and size you have. Small makeup bags are usually suitable for storing short-handle brushes or travel brushes, which are more commonly used; the larger ones are suitable for storing professional makeup brushes.
2. If brushes are not in use for a while, it is best to insert the brush heads upward into the makeup container. Long-handled brushes are convenient to use, but they are not convenient to carry. It might be a good idea to add a shorter, larger brush according to the size of your makeup bag.
