How To Take Care of Your Makeup Brushes
These days, finding the right cosmetics brushes is really important. If you've never heard this before, it's not only important to take care of them but also clean them properly with a special brush cleaner. I don't know about you, but I can't even imagine how difficult it would be if your makeup brushes didn't work as well and weren't clean enough — be it cheap or expensive ones.
You can't see the difference, but you really do feel it. When your makeup brushes are clean, you will see less shedding and more of a smooth, creamy application of your foundation or eyeshadow. It makes the look of your entire face look better.
So let's talk about how to take care of your makeup brushes step-by-step!

Ways on how you can disinfect your brushes
Start with dampen a paper towel using your brush cleaner (any brand) or 70% alcohol.
Swirl the bristles back and forth onto the damp paper towel. It will help to dissolve any dirt or grime on your bristles.
Disinfect thoroughly all the areas of makeup brush.
HOW TO PROPERLY CLEAN YOUR BRUSHES
This is the first step in the deep cleaning process.
Before you get to deep cleaning, grab a paper towel or a clean hand towel and give your brush a good wipedown, handle and all. You’ll probably be surprised at how much makeup comes off with this quick once over, and it can really make your cleaning job easier
As you rinse, keep the bristles pointed downward.
This will help avoid the water running back and into the center of the brush, which can dissolve the glue that holds the brushes together. Move and separate the bristles to really penetrate into the center of the brush
Make it stand out
If your brush is really dirty, squeeze the brushes using your fingers towards the tip. This will help agitate the bristles more, which can lead to a deeper clean.
Continue massaging the bristles to really clean them off.
If the water runs completely clean, your brush is good to go! You don’t need to cleanse it again.
Put a clean towel down to catch any extra moisture.
Try to keep the brushes lying flat until they’re fully dry to prevent any water damage to the handle.
