i thought you wernt suppose to lay the brushes flat because the water could still travel to the ends and loosen the brisels? wouldnt you hang them instead?
I do all of the steps except brush cleaner, maybe ill consider doing that. I also never use a sponge for the baby shampoo, which makes total sense. My brushes will be much happier ^_^
I Love this method! Im going to try this right now! I do however need to get a makeup remover just as backup or to use it the way you did here..YAY..off I go!
Does anyone know how to get glitter/sparkle out of makeup brushes? I use brush cleaner once a week or so, and have tried the method Marlena is using as well...however the glitter stays in there and then gets in my matte shadows :(
awesome tips... never thought I have to clean my makeup brushes that often. I've been lucky not to have any kind of skin irritations/problems fr. dirty brushes. I feel kind of gross now not cleaning my brushes often. Thank you sooo much for giving this tutorial. I'm soooo gonna clean ALL my makeup brushes tomorrow.
I use hand soap and the mac brush cleaner. I don't clean my brushes as often as u should. How often should I be cleaning my brushes? Sometime after I wash them and they dry they are a little rough, right now I mostly use the elf ones trying them out. Buy I am planning in getting the MUG brushes since I really can't afford the Mac ones. What is your feed back. Oh BTW I love ya!!!!
Water is a precious resource no matter what country you live in. I'm glad I'm not the only one who was aware of her letting the water run. I understand she was explaining but no excuse. Here in the southwest, water is precious and expensive. Lets all be aware and shoot for that 4 minute Australian shower. Thank you.
Since you already started reading you can't stop. My name is Kalena. I have black hair, and green eyes. I am 13. I was abused my whole life. I have no ears or nose, because my parents chopped them off with a rusty fork. I am dead. I will show up in your room in 13 days and kill you by chopping off your body parts with a rusty fork unless you repost this on five pages. THIS IS NO JOKE!! If you do, something good will happen to you within 13 days. If you don't believe this, wait
i tried this on a couple of my cheaper brushes, and it worked really well (: i'm just concerned that if i clean my powder brush like this, will it regain it's original shape? thanks!
I used to use olive oil and Dawn dish washing soap, but I find that it's hard to wash out the bristles, especially the olive oil if you aren't careful with it. If you put too much it can take forever to wash out or just ruin your brush all together; that happened to me, but luckily it was a cheap brush. Now I mix a little bit of Dawn with Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap and it takes EVERYTHING out and it's easy to wash out. Then I use conditioner to condition the bristles. It's the best method!
I love how you give out tips .. I know a lot of people who would NEVER do that! I trust your reviews and tips so when I searched up how to clean brushes and saw your videos after viewing a couple of other people's, I came to your video RIGHT AWAY!! I absolutely LOVE you!! You are extremely talented and are soooooo beautiful!!
Shes showing us HER way of cleaning her brushes, and if thts her routine for her brushes tht just simple means it works on her, just because u saw tht on michelle phan doesnt mean shes the only one whos doing tht thing, and mm how sure r u guys tht its all started on her, its just tht maybe shes the first one who showed wht she do to her brushes, and when u keep talking about michelle phan in this video im sure it does offend her. if u want the was MP clean her brushes then do it.
so are the brushes suppose to feel greesy afterwards? mine do should i wash them again with normal brush cleanser? I am afraid to put them into my products i dont want to ruin my shados and blushes etc
Well now I'm thoroughly confused. I bought all the EVOO, baby shampoo and makeup remover last night...but now I'm afraid to do this because I don't know whether or not it will ruin my brushes. I also want to know if I should dry them UPSIDE DOWN now...? Because that seems like a more logical way to keep the water out of the handle. Any EXPERTS who can answer??
@washadurn I'm not an expert but I know for a fact that you're supposed to dry your brushes upside down. If you don't dry them upside down , the water will drip down into the glue and then the bristles will most likely fall out. You're brushes will probably be fine using EVOO , baby shampoo and makeup remover. I clean my brushes almost every week and they're fine.
@washadurn Dry them with the bristles down because if the water gets in the handle it losens the glue then your brush will eventually willl fall apart
IN MY OPINION.. okay, yeah. i NO that there are places in this world where some communties don't have the opportunity to drink fresh water. but to be honest? we should be spending less time arguing on the internet and spend more time raising awareness or helping people in our OWN community. i'm 14 and bought a homeless man some food the other day..
if we help out nation grow and be better.. then thats when we can help other countries less fortunate. :)
I have been trying to get the built up foundation out of my brush for a month! I've used my MAC brush cleaner but it wasn't enough. This worked perfectly!
Awww, I have a couple of considerations/questions unfortunetely I guess she'll never reply here... Anyways...
Olive oil? It seems to me the brushes will smell funny... Can it be mineral oil, some perfumed cosmetic oil??? (Btw, I don't see the need to use oil anyways... Guess some conditioner would do that job...)
Only shampooing is not enough??? Imagine all that process made on about 50 brushes...
I don't want to be a troll and nor do I ever try but instead of laying them on the side you want them upside down so that the handle wont swell is water leaks back and water wont weep and make the glue holding it in come lose. But instead of baby shampoo use dish washing some to kill bacteria. I hope u find it useful I hope I don't sound insulting!
umm.........i know someone who said to put soap and then put olive oil together on a paper towl and dont put it like that.......you have to put them in a jar upside down so it doesnt get water down there and get the brissles wet and let them fall out....not to tell you off or anything that what i think!!!:)
2 questions: this should be a new sponge that hasn't been used for anything else right? and second: is it okay if i lay my brushes on an angle so that the water flows down?
This method with the oil works but u have to wash ur brushes very thoroughly, until all the oil comes off. if the oil doesn't come off, ur gonna hav to throw the brush away cuz the oil might not come off n ur brush will be very sticky.

@MakeupGeekTV Please help!! I used this method to clean my brushes and now they have been drying for about 4 and 30 hours but they smell reallllly bad, I guess from the oil, its such a weird smell. I thought it would fade when they dry but they are drying and still there is a smell. Also they are a little "sticky" I guess you can say from the oil even though I washed them under luke warm water. What should I do to save my brushes?! Please help!
You actually are exceedingly beautiful, thanks a ton for your video clip. it can be unfortunate i'm located within Draper due to the fact i aren't able to end up getting very good cosmetics, however i get free of charge trials from 'Gratis Makeup Samples'. i love MAC make-up!
@Macfreak168 Agreed! it's just a simple method,why are people still got it messed it up?You didn't get yr brush clean because u didn't do it right!! How hard this is?Even my 6 yr old can do it correctly by just watching this very informative video.She got all my brushes clean and they smell really good just like her baby shampoo! Bravo & thank you MakeupGeek!!
I usually wash my brushes with facial wash. If it can wash makeup on my face, then why not on brushes? But I'm still going to try your way, see which one I like better.
Here’s a set of makeup brushes that I bought & I love them, so I recommend you to get those to, this is the website I got them from: amway. com/VerasDomain & at the top of the page you’ll see the search box & this is the item number for the set of brushes: 70-0154
No no no, use ONLY (and ONLY) extra virgin olive oil! The molecules in it are too large to go into your skin so it won't want it oily. But any other type of oil WILL penetrate into your skin and if it's on your brush it'll make you overly oily! She says you can use any type of oil, but NO you can't.
@jejedropful That's exactly what I thought the whole time, I couldn't even concentrate on the video.. It's not too much to ask to turn of the water when ur doin something else in between..
@0795smiley Im pretty sure it has to be Baby shampoo becuz the hair on brushes is more sensitive like baby hair.... And she said at the beginning of the vid u can use any kind of oil.
First let me say this....it's her water,she pays the bill....all the water on earth is recycled anyways...it's been here for millions of years.....WHO CARES HOW MUCH SHE USES....the video is about how to clean your brushes.Not about How to save
on your water bill,or how to save the planet.Keep you Green ass off the computer
@Timscleite "Quit trying to be so green!" Are u stupid? The frekin world is coming apart! its not beeing "green" anymore, is beeing realistic. There are places around the world where people dont even have acces to clean water and in other places people die because of dehydration. The whole world suffers the consecuances, but offcourse, why would you even care, all you wanna know is how to wash yuor brushes. Get your priorities straight, stop being so selfish.

hi! everytime i use water on my brushes after a day the start to spell like skunk is this because im not using the brush cleaner? or because there cheap brushes thanks courtney
OMG thank you! You saved my brushes! Using just daily brush cleaner wasn't cutting it. Weekly cleaner is expensive. This saves me A LOT! Since I use a lot of really dark and vibrant colours. Especially with concealer brush getting goopy.
Yeah u r sopposed to lay them brussels down

@MakeupGeekTV Please help!! I used this method to clean my brushes and now they have been drying for about 4 and 30 hours but they smell reallllly bad, I guess from the oil, its such a weird smell. I thought it would fade when they dry but they are drying and still there is a smell. Also they are a little "sticky" I guess you can say from the oil even though I washed them under luke warm water. What should I do to save my brushes?! Please help!

I usually wash my brushes with facial wash. If it can wash makeup on my face, then why not on brushes? But I'm still going to try your way, see which one I like better.

Here’s a set of makeup brushes that I bought & I love them, so I recommend you to get those to, this is the website I got them from: amway. com/VerasDomain & at the top of the page you’ll see the search box & this is the item number for the set of brushes: 70-0154

No no no, use ONLY (and ONLY) extra virgin olive oil! The molecules in it are too large to go into your skin so it won't want it oily. But any other type of oil WILL penetrate into your skin and if it's on your brush it'll make you overly oily! She says you can use any type of oil, but NO you can't.

can you use this method for all types of brushes? like the kabuki brush and the concealer brush?

@jtwvwb Kabuki brushes and Concealer brushes do take a little more oil and shampoo that others. But other than that, yes you can.

@Timscleite "Quit trying to be so green!" Are u stupid? The frekin world is coming apart! its not beeing "green" anymore, is beeing realistic. There are places around the world where people dont even have acces to clean water and in other places people die because of dehydration. The whole world suffers the consecuances, but offcourse, why would you even care, all you wanna know is how to wash yuor brushes. Get your priorities straight, stop being so selfish.
