Tuesday, January 22nd 2008How To Make Your Brushes Last Longer
The key to long lasting makeup brushes, clean them regularly! Keep brushes clean and bacteria free by washing at least once every week with Baby Shampoo or a gentle cleanser. Snip away frayed ends to give that flawless application. Make sure you shape brissles right after cleansing and let air dry.
TIP: Invest in a good makeup brush. It may be expensive initially, but, in the long run it will pay off. Some of my brushes are 11+ years old! I try to stay away from brush sets. I know it's hard, because it's a great deal. But, in most cases "sets" are usually processed through a machine compared to hand glued, and there is a big difference! Brush sets are ideal if you are a beginner or even a daily makeup user. But, if your serious about makeup, a quality brush is a must!
Note: Not washing your makeup brushes regularly can cause acne break-outs, and skin irritations due to bacteria that lives in your brushes! Eww! So, if you have any mysterious breakouts or skin irritations you may want to clean your brushes or any tools you use on a regular basis.
