Cleaning brushes has to be one of the worst things ever, but to keep away all the nasties that build up on our brushes we have to do it- probably a good deep clean every 2 weeks at most (I'm really bad at this so I won't judge haha) People clean their brushes all sorts of ways but the way I do it is really simple, cheap and effective!
What you'll need
Baby Shampoo
Warm water
That is literally it, I use the little silver pot which is just the other half of a soap holder! I use baby shampoo because it's so gentle it won't damage your brushes! I picked this bottle up in Savers for like £1 and it's lasted me for so long so I highly recommend getting a big bottle of baby shampoo if you're on a budget.
I start by just rinsing the brush under some warm water- now it's careful that you do use warm water and not cold because that won't kill the bacteria and hot water can damage the brush.
For my beauty blender I pretty much do the same thing- I run it under the water for a while which gets rid of some of the foundation stuck in there, then do the silver pot filled with water and shampoo and just squish it around for a while. I rinse it again and find that most of the foundation/dirt has gone, but when I've been naughty and haven't cleaned it in a while I just put a small amount of shampoo directly onto it and really rub it in, I find that this gets rid of any stains and gets it looking like the colour it was when I first bought it!
