Can you do this for bigger brushes (like powder & foundation brushes) as well?

[kandeejohnson]

@Pelfrey123 oh yes! safe for all brushes!

[StaciiVenganza]

but.. what kind of shampoo :/

[kandeejohnson]

@StaciiVenganza I use any organic or gentle shampoo. Typically what you use on your hair, because it hasn't made you break out, so it should be safe on your "face brushes"! hugs!

i had to see this after you said in the 300th vid this is your first upload :) congrats kandee!

@karenluv310 alcohol will damage the the bristles and can cause damage to the way the base where the bristles are attached- you could also use Beauty So Clean to disinfect them, which dries faster than the alcohol but is much better for your brushes too! xo

my brush smells like my shampoo!

[snowmountain2007]

After washing, you should tape your brushes upside down on your bathroom mirror overnight. That way the water will never get into the ferrule and your brushes will dry completely. :)

@sezzyberr Hi, I don't know if this will work, but it happened once to my brush as well, my brush was oily after wash. Thus I 'dry' the brush with some face powder, to make it dry or to absorb the oil, then wash it again with shampoo, it's better then, may be you can try to see if it's work for you! Hope it helps!

Kandee, you give such great tips. I've spent a fortune on brush cleaners that didn't do as well as what you've shown using products we already own. I do still love a product called "Brush-off" for everyday cleaning, or if i need to use the same brush, in 2 or more different colors. Thank you, again.
