I am so glad I watched more than one video to clean my brushes! The last one I washed said use vinegar and I thought.....ERMAGERSH! WOULDN'T THAT SMELL BAD? Thanks so much!
I know your comment is old but i wanna point out: Vinegar vanishes in air. If you put a class of vinegar on your balcony, you can drink it after a few hours. It basically becomes tap water. So also the smell vanishes.😊
Not exactly, it’s “95% methylated spirit, 2.5% castor oil, 2% diethyl phthalate, and 0.5% methyl salicylate” which is comparable to our 70% isopropyl alcohol but not exactly it
I used to clean my brushes by just putting them in the sink! I thought it would help since they'd be soaking, but thank you for telling me! This looks like a great way to clean them and will definitely be doing it in the future! Love how the video is only 4 minutes long as well, very direct and to the point. Thanks!! X
Lorena Zago finally! Someone agrees 😂 also I find baby shampoo is the only thing that won't make me break out. And it's a lot cheaper than the proper make up brush cleaners but works just as good 😊
I tried this yesterday and let them dry over night and I’m impressed! It works so well, will definitely be doing this every time my brushes need a wash
I have another idea..!!if you guys have gluegun ur rite in ur place..u need a exam pad and a glue gun...just do thick designs like acupuncture or like waves on the exam pad and let it dry...after that when u want to clean ur brushes jast wet ur exam pad and ur brush,add a shower gel or shampoo on the exam pad and rub ur brushes on it..and wash ur brush in water..that's it😊😊
Thank you so much for showing me how to clean my brushes without having to go and buy a bunch of different cleaners and the boards and all that crap that I didn't want to have to spend the money on. I used exactly your trick and it worked!! It even took the stains out of my white brushes . So I very much appreciate your tips
okay so i definitely recommend this to everyone! i tried it with one of my wet and wild brushes that was really dirty from contouring, it worked flawlessly. my brush is now dried and better than ever. it looks and feels brand new! thank you, i’ll definitely be subscribing!
Thanks for this. I am relatively new to makeup and hadn't cleaned my brushes yet. I did what you did. But instead shampoo I rubbed a natural bar soap on my palm. It seemed to work well. The brushes are drying right now. Thanks again.
I clean my brushes with shampoo but instead on putting shampoo on my hand I use a big piece of Lego 😂 because the water can get hot 💕 this works so well
I laughed so hard over the lego hahahaha that's brilliant! The fact the lego has all the little dents in it as well would really help to clean the brush haha genius :D X
I've always cleaned my brushes the same way with the soap and swirling it around on my hand. I use cheap baby shampoo from the dollar store or amazon, but I've never heard of using olive oil, I'll definitely try that. The folded towel is a really good idea too, I always struggled with finding a way to lay them at a slant to keep the water out of the ferrule. I bought an artist tool from amazon that holds them upside down, but the towel thing is free! Japonesque makes a brush cleaning spray that I love, because you can use it and then immediately use the brush, so it's great for quick cleans. Thanks for the video!
Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful tutorial! I never thought of cleaning the handle, and now that I know I should, I'm definitely going to add that to my cleaning routine.
Brilliant video! I used to just buy new brushes each year but now I`ve bought good quality brushes I want to look after them, tried this and couldn`t believe how much product was hidden in the bristles, they felt so different when clean, much softer. They are drying now so let`s see how they feel when I use tomorrow.
You have an editing skill of the gods, I rewatched that intro like 12 times and tried to figure out when you might've taken out the brushes but dang I couldn't find a single one
AHHH thank you so much!!! I literally had no idea how to clean my brushes, and I can’t believe how well this worked!! I used the brand nature’s orgánica, and it worked a dream 😍
For some reason when I first watched this video I thought she put more makeup on her brushes for a more dramatic effect when she was cleaning them. Then I used this technique to clean my brushes AND THERE WAS SO MUCH MAKEUP EVERYWHERE. So glad I did this! Thanks for the video!
So, I just cleaned my brushes like you instructed in this video . . . .I didn't realize what color some of my brush bristles were originally until now. Thank you for this awesome tutorial.
I do the same thing. I thought I was weird that I spot clean after every use with alcohol. I do use a soap by BH Cosmetics and it does work fantastic. I get them on sale and one does last a very long time. So yes it’s more expensive then shampoo but it works great and you get tons of uses out if one so the price works out. I just don’t like using shampoo because it’s more messy (i is clumsy) and you constantly have to pick it up and tip it over. A solid soap you can have sit on the counter and swirl your brushes around in it. Again I’m clumsy and it’s just an added bonus that I can avoid making a mess
I was so shocked! I was skeptical at first but I did it and it took like a total of 3 minutes and it was so perfectly clean???? I had cleaned it before but it wouldn't come out, but this worked in like 1 minute??? thank you!
Thank you , this video really helped me cleaned my old brushes , they are clean now I used to put ( lucky enough I had that shampoo , I’m gonna see if I can get more ) them in a container with warm water and quite a few of them broke , I would balance them on the side
Thank you for the tutorial, I washed my brushes and I was so happy with the results I washed my Mum's as well. I had no idea the tips of my brushes were white!
Thank you so much, I just did the same with a light coconut shampoo that I had and wasn’t good for my hair but I kept it. Now it’s my favorite brushes shampoo :)
I'm thinking of buying something to help clean my foundation brushes. I have no problem with powder brushes, but it's really hard to get all the foundation out of those densely packed foundation brushes using my fingers. It takes a long time and it's a pain in the ass. I've realized that a natural, grease fighting dish detergent works best for foundation brushes but it's still a lot of digging into the bristles to get foundation out. After seeing how well a color switch works for getting powder out of bristles, I'm thinking there has to be something similar to use wet with foundation and cream brushes
I think shampoo could be an alternative to Brush soap, but the Spiritus, which is a kind of alcohol, dries them out and brushes need to be kept Smooth. In addition, in Brush soap are some additives that maintain brushes. That's why I would not use anything different for Cleaning.
When washing my brushes I used to put them in a warm soapy basin submerging the brushes under the soapy water. Then I saw a TH-cam video on how to clean makeup brushes with a bar of soap by wetting the soap and the brush head simply rub the brush on the bar of soap I have in a soap dish then place the head of the brush in a basin of warm water if you are cleaning lots of brushes remember to change your water after every couple of brushes. I find this way very quick and if you want extra protection I use a detol soap there is no smell after.
Thank you for your "right to the point" and informative video. I know this was posted quite a while ago, but had a question. I live in the USA. When you speak about surgical spirits, is this rubbing alcohol? Do you know? Thanks so much.
The shampoo you used is the one my boyfriend uses and this being the first video I clicked on it must be fate haha ;P Cheers the video was great and really helpful :) ❤
Thanks for the olive oil tip! I spent half an hour trying to get foundation out of my friends makeup brush with just soap and rubbing alcohol and it just wouldn’t budge, the olive oil with the shampoo got it out WAY easier
Omg you’re from Dublin! 😍😍 I love it! I am going to visit Ireland in 9 days and will be flying into Dublin! After that, I’m staying in Bundoran in Northern Ireland. I love your tips and your accent! 😍 keep it up!!!
i use my face cleaner/makeup remover the neutrogena one with the blue bottle white top to clean my brushes it cuts the grease and germs of makeup and makes my brushes brand spanking new
the wasboard and olive oil technique is very smart i'm definitely going to was my brushes like this from now on. I still have stains on my foundation brush that I thought that I could never ger out. This was very smart thank you so much for the video!
+Eimear McElheron no problem! Thanks for the reply! i'm definitely going to try that trick over the weekend. I dont usually comment much on videos cuz I get shy. But im very happy you replied!
Thank you so much! I used to try and clean my makeup brushes w some freestyling (actually ruining a lot of my mom's towels) so this was really helpful!
The olive oil tip was excellent! I use baby shampoo for my brushes and bb, but couldn't fully get out the full-coverage foundation from my foundation brush! That problem is now gone! :)
I use the Daily defense shampoo for my brushes it's like 1,99 for a huge bottle and I wash my brushes the same way but I make 2 shampoos to be sure it's clean for all the brushes and they dry so fast with paper towels.
who’s here from the video about putting vinegar on ur brushes
Lmao me
Me lol
Me
Me
Me hahahahaha
I am so glad I watched more than one video to clean my brushes! The last one I washed said use vinegar and I thought.....ERMAGERSH! WOULDN'T THAT SMELL BAD? Thanks so much!
Dawn Shelley I just watched the same one you’re talking about !
I know your comment is old but i wanna point out: Vinegar vanishes in air. If you put a class of vinegar on your balcony, you can drink it after a few hours. It basically becomes tap water. So also the smell vanishes.😊
I just watched that and thought the same thing
I just watched that one. Poor girl probably wonders why her brushes don’t last
@@mikasablackerman6776 why would they not last long? Vinegar is good for hair and makes them soft?
*This video ACTUALLY DOES IT RIGHT. So many videos about cleaning brushes have it wrong. Great job!*
Me and my american self had to look up what surgical spirits were. Here in 'murica it's rubbing alcohol lol.
Lola Ma THANK YOU! I would have needed to look it up too!
Not exactly, it’s “95% methylated spirit, 2.5% castor oil, 2% diethyl phthalate, and 0.5% methyl salicylate” which is comparable to our 70% isopropyl alcohol but not exactly it
SAME lol
Yeah same never heard of surgical spirits except in from UK 😆
I was like, let me scroll down and see what is surgical spirits.
Surgical spirits sounds much more fun than rubbing alcohol. Thanks for the tips!
So, I just cleaned my mother's brushes for the first time in like 10 YEARS and in 1 of the brushes turned the fricking white shampoo into bright pink!
Maltese Girl that disgusting lol
Wait! But can anyone use same brush for 10 years ?
Sameee but not 10 year maybe like 5 years lmao 🤣🤣
She needs new brushes cleaning them won't due..lol
guys she doesnt use make up that much ahaha thats why
LOVE HER ACCENT SO MUCH
I used to clean my brushes by just putting them in the sink! I thought it would help since they'd be soaking, but thank you for telling me!
This looks like a great way to clean them and will definitely be doing it in the future! Love how the video is only 4 minutes long as well, very direct and to the point. Thanks!! X
I always use baby shampoo on my brushes because it is very soft in the bristles so you may want to try that. ❤️
same, it is very gentle on the bristles and smells super nice!
Lorena Zago finally! Someone agrees 😂 also I find baby shampoo is the only thing that won't make me break out. And it's a lot cheaper than the proper make up brush cleaners but works just as good 😊
Can I use Johnson baby shampoo?
Aafreen Aahil yes
Hairstyles By Emma me too, it's so much better than if you buy soap that's meant for cleaning your brushes, it's so much cheaper as well 😊
Excellent: short, informative, thorough and all with an awesome accent! Thank you!
I tried this yesterday and let them dry over night and I’m impressed! It works so well, will definitely be doing this every time my brushes need a wash
anyone else just like "JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO ALREADY 😭"
Sky Winters yes ikr
it takes her like a minute to get to the technique, it's not that long of a wait.
Hope Dagenhart oh my god. Yes
Me

To cobdition better, may want to use bar soap made of olive oil.
I clean my brushes with shampoo but instead on putting shampoo on my hand I use a big piece of Lego 😂 because the water can get hot 💕 this works so well
I laughed so hard over the lego hahahaha that's brilliant! The fact the lego has all the little dents in it as well would really help to clean the brush haha genius :D X
Omg using legos is BRILLIANT!!! I never thought of that! It never occurred to me that this one silicone cleaner I bought looks like a lego haha
Clodagh Murphy Great idea. I might have to try that.
YOU SAVED MY LIFE 💞

Oh my god my mum has never cleaned her brushes and it drives me nuts😩😳
Anastasia Hearts Beauty my mom doesn't brush her own,the ones I have are small and thin.what a waste
same i went into the bathroom, picked up a brush, and it got eyeshadow all on my hands
Anastasia Hearts Beauty th-cam.com/video/MpZUyXR1gO8/w-d-xo.html
I’m watching this video to wash her makeup cause she never does that either
Omg clean them when she is gone at work or something lol
omg thank you for not wasting water!
Yes thank you for saving the planet.
Stfu😂
Exactly this 😐🙏
So, I just cleaned my brushes like you instructed in this video . . . .I didn't realize what color some of my brush bristles were originally until now. Thank you for this awesome tutorial.
Starts 1:20
Thank God you are probably one of the few that remember to turn off the tap and not leaving it on all the time! Thank you for being nice to the earth
This video has saved me time and money ... much appreciated 👍☺️
Now I know how to clean them ! Thank you so much, I was swirling them around in a soapy water before, now they are really clean!
This is awesome! It took about a minute and my brush is squeaky clean! Thanks so much!!
No problem at all! 😀 x

I'm in the USA. What can I use instead of the "spirits" you talk about, for cleaning on a daily basis? Thank you! Love the video :-)
When I clean my brushes I take hair ties and I use a bar and hang the downwards to dry
Hope Victoria me too
i like that idea and i am going to try soon
The only way to keep the brushes safe
Hope Victoria I always loose my hair ties ...
Hi, I just tried your technique with the shampoo! Worked like a charm. Im just letting my make up brush air dry now
Thank you soo much 😊
You can spot clean your brushes with baby wipes as well. They are oil based and gentle and will get the job done!
Just cleaned my brushes. Don't really used them but decided to look for a video to clean them as they have been down for a while and I found you.
That's exactly how I wash my brushes. No need to buy anything.
Nope definitely no need :) This way is cheap and still very effective! X
Someone suggested a big piece of lego and I thought that was hella clever
@@knivesy 😂
Same. I also wash my paint brushes the same way
Literally the best "how to clean your makeup brushes" video on TH-cam👍🏻
Thank you , this video really helped me cleaned my old brushes , they are clean now
I used to put ( lucky enough I had that shampoo , I’m gonna see if I can get more )
them in a container with warm water and quite a few of them broke , I would balance them on the side

Thank you so much, I just did the same with a light coconut shampoo that I had and wasn’t good for my hair but I kept it. Now it’s my favorite brushes shampoo :)
So simple! I was wasting money buying extra tools and soaps.
This simple method totally works! Thanks!!!

Try combing the bristles under running warm water.
I think shampoo could be an alternative to Brush soap, but the Spiritus, which is a kind of alcohol, dries them out and brushes need to be kept Smooth.
In addition, in Brush soap are some additives that maintain brushes. That's why I would not use anything different for Cleaning.
I have a makeup student, and i was looking for a great tutorial for her, this was perfect! Wow, there were some really bad options out there!

Thank you so much for this wonderful video! We just cleaned it today and now all our brushes are clean!
I had almost given up on my white brushes, thank you... this is brilliant!
Works really well! My brushes smelt so good after this. Totally recommend washing brushes this way!👍👌🏼
I just started using makeup brushes and was gonna do what she initially said not to do. Thanks!
What is spot cleaning?
Thank you for your "right to the point" and informative video. I know this was posted quite a while ago, but had a question. I live in the USA. When you speak about surgical spirits, is this rubbing alcohol? Do you know? Thanks so much.
Thank you, I just used the olive oil w/ baby shampoo & it worked great. 🖌
Thank you! First time cleaning my brushes (eyeshadow only I don’t wear any face makeup) for a very long time- this did just the trick!
The shampoo you used is the one my boyfriend uses and this being the first video I clicked on it must be fate haha ;P Cheers the video was great and really helpful :) ❤
DoubleDamn 34 have u broken up yet?

Thank you for this video :) I cleaned mine the same way and I also did my blender with dishsoap and olive oil 👍
I just did what you did in the video and I'm just waiting for it to dry, excited to see the results! Thank you!!!
Literally the most useful 'brush-washing' video on the internet.
You can also use dawn dish soap!!!! Very gentle on brushes! If it’s good for baby ducks it’s good for brushes 🦆❤️
This is exactly the comment I came to make!
Thank you so much for this! I finally got my brushes clean with the olive oil!
Thank you so very much!! I needed to be reassured that I didn't need to buy anything fancy 💖
Love your accent! Thank you for sharing 💜
I tried this method and it worked amazing on my brushes!
this video just saved my skin and basically my life 😭
Did not expect this to really work, but it did! thanks!
Very helpful. I used this and all my brushes are looking and feeling new! Thanks for the tips! :)
This is how I clean my brushes. Glad I'm doing it right. 😂
Why must we use a brush to apply compact powder instead of using the sponge given?
I use mild body wash or baby shampoo to clean it, you can also add few drops of makeup remover.
Thanks for the olive oil tip! I spent half an hour trying to get foundation out of my friends makeup brush with just soap and rubbing alcohol and it just wouldn’t budge, the olive oil with the shampoo got it out WAY easier
Omg you’re from Dublin! 😍😍 I love it! I am going to visit Ireland in 9 days and will be flying into Dublin! After that, I’m staying in Bundoran in Northern Ireland. I love your tips and your accent! 😍 keep it up!!!
i just washed my brushes after seeing this video and thank youuu 😩😩
ok thank you im going to do this right now😍
This is so helpful! I’m slightly worried about the drying process because I have some double sided brushes though 😅
I think you'll have to wash them 1 side at a time :) I love her drying technique!
i use my face cleaner/makeup remover the neutrogena one with the blue bottle white top to clean my brushes it cuts the grease and germs of makeup and makes my brushes brand spanking new
Thanks! Very helpful. Just saw a video about using vinegar. This makes a lot more sense

this was so helpful, thank you so much for this short, effective, useful video!
Thank you so much! I used to try and clean my makeup brushes w some freestyling (actually ruining a lot of my mom's towels) so this was really helpful!
I use baby shampoo to clean them mixed with hot water into a little bowl and but the brush end in and hold it up and kinda swirl it around.
Very to the point. Im gonna try the oil technique now. Thanks! :)
The olive oil tip was excellent! I use baby shampoo for my brushes and bb, but couldn't fully get out the full-coverage foundation from my foundation brush! That problem is now gone! :)
I just tried that and IT FREAKING WORKED OMG THANKS YOU SO MUCH I WAS LOOKING FOR A AFFORDABLE WAY TO WASH MY BRUSHES

Camille Tedoco also try using olive oil and dish washing soap it works wonders

Thank you so much my foundation brushes were a mess. Love your video 💕
Great video! I tried this and it really worked! Thanks. You saved me a lot of money!
Thank you so much, this made a crazy difference on my brushes.
I have always done this technique. The only difference is I use Dawn dish soap, and I purchased a rack to hang brushes upside down in amazon!
I use the Daily defense shampoo for my brushes it's like 1,99 for a huge bottle and I wash my brushes the same way but I make 2 shampoos to be sure it's clean for all the brushes and they dry so fast with paper towels.
