I know you all have a daily makeup routine, but do you have a makeup brush cleaning routine?
Now more than ever we should be sanitizing everything - don’t overlook your makeup brushes!
5 reasons why cleaning your brushes regularly is very important:
1. Makeup brushes accumulate bacteria over time when they are not cleaned, which can cause acne breakouts and other skin conditions.
2. Makeup brushes also accumulate dead skin cells and oil, leading to clogged pores and further breakouts.
3. Dirty brushes can cause irritation and redness to your skin if the brush hairs quality is not looked after.
4. Dirty brushes will further contaminate your makeup products, as all the bacteria, oil and dirt will transfer onto your products after continued use.
5. Makeup build up does not allow for smooth application.

Other tips on how to take care of your makeup brushes:
-Spray your brushes with a brush cleaner for a quick clean between colour changes
-Avoid getting the ferrule (base of the brush) wet during washing - this will prevent the glue from getting soft so that the makeup brush hairs don't become loose and start falling out
-Ensure your makeup brushes dry in a downward position, to further ensure no water gets into the ferrule
-Always store your makeup brushes in a clean container, and keep covered if stored in the bathroom
-Never share your makeup brushes with anyone
-Opt for makeup brushes that are animal friendly (faux hair)
Remember: clean brushes means cleaner makeup which means cleaner skin.
