Can I Use Makeup Remover To Clean Brushes

Nicala

I observe that olive oil helps to remove the remainder. That happened to me with Revlon colorstay, that helped a lot. Attempt to mix it in with a little soap.

I am using Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation and it's so difficult to get it off my brushes!

So now I employ an heart makeup remover for waterproof products after washing with shampoo and MAC castor cleanser in the end.

I don't think it is the best way to wash my brushes at all then if there is anyone who could recommend me some other mode or products, it would exist very appreciated!

Thank you

although in the past i have sometimes used shampoo to clean my makeup brushes, the method i normally go with is to use dish lather - like palmolive, fairy etc...which get the brushes very clean. i'm sure the experts will belittle

, but i've been doing this for ten years and my brushes have not been damaged.

I've never used brush shampoo to make clean my brushes. I've always used soap bar (Dove preferably) to wash them. Information technology's then much cleaner and amend (if you're the patient kind) and when you wake upwards the next forenoon to your brushes, voila!

dawn dish detergent works really well..

likewise, in the organic diverseness, dr bronners 18 in 1 soap is awesome. and works to clean EVERYTHING. and i mean EVERYTHING.

While dish washing liquid will probable exist peachy at removing the makeup, information technology can be harsh on natural bristle brushes. (Think of if this way: Would you wash your hair with Dawn?) Using olive oil or an oil based makeup remover would be gentler.

the best part near dr bronners is that yous don't need a lot AT ALL. a drib in your palm and you're adept to go.

the fact that its organic and SLS complimentary makes me happy.

Olive oil does the trick but make sure you only use a piddling!

I do this too! I use Dawn

I've had brushes and even puffs that I thought were goners, but Dawn got them spotless in one launder.

I quick clean with MAC brush cleaner every other day or so, merely if I tin can't get product off, then I do this. Great for foundation brushes!!

This is a good indicate. I don't use Dawn every fourth dimension, just when something stains the brush. Simply then once more the Dr. Bronners castille lather is as well high of a pH to apply on hair, so I wouldn't use that even if it is organic. I also condition my brushes when I wash them with regular shampoo. I actually like to wash my brushes with Joico Wet Recovery

I apply my Lauder Accept it Away make upwards remover to go off the foundation, then but a brush cleaner and never take a problem getting off my Double Wear.
