If you have acne prone skin please do not use any oils on your face. Use a soap and oil free, waterbased cleanser and or micellar water to clean your brushes (and skin). Coming from someone who had really bad skin and is now thriving:)

I clean my brushes with a solution of soap, vinegar (1:1) and warm water. I leave them to soak and change the dirty water and wash them on a silicone pad. I wipe them with a kitchen towel of the excess water and leave them with the brushes down to dry. They come out very clean and disinfected thanks to the vinegar...can be sprayed with pure alcohol when they are dry...Try it !!Success...Greetings from Romania.❤

Nooo don’t do this, use a skin cleanser instead of soap because soap isn’t meant for your face. Use one pump of cleanser on each brush, then put it under water for 1 sec, then rub the brush on your palm until the brush turns its original color.after that run it under water and dry it off with a towel gently

No. Recommend a baby shampoo or the elf shampoo for brushes. I tried burts bees oil cleanser to clean my make up brushes and the oil slick never went away from the bristles no matter how hard I try to clean these brushes, I feel like that cleanser destroyed them. Olive oil is even thicker, I just don’t see this working very good for me LOL to each their own.

Yeah no don’t use oil if you get acne, and if you’re really serious about washing brushes here’s a tip- just soak them in micellar water first then wash them with CLARIFYING SHAMPOO just make sure you rinse shampoo very well and end this painful thing by soaking them in isopropyl alcohol and then dry using “brush dryer” (t basically spin- dries brushes as if it’s lettuce) and for further neatness store them in plastic container with lid, and then jump in a vat of acid yourself so the biggest germ that’s you won’t exist either. Goodnight girls! It’s 3 am where I live

please dont dip your entire brush in water, its not good for the glue holding everything together

Haha NO NO NO.. do not use oil and push your brush into water past the brush hairs. The glue will become lose and the hairs will fall out. Use the Zote pink bar soap it’s a laundry bar soap for clothes no chemicals or hard detergents. Use a cleaning Matt and hang your brushes upside down over night so all the water will drains out. I’ve used the Zote pink bars soap for over 10 years. It removes all makeup fast and easy it also removes makeup from clothes.

Is it safe to put dish soap on your skin? I've always been told not to wash my brushes with it xx

Oh my God, this is the most useful hack I’ve ever seen. This is amazing you’re amazing thank you so much like I’ve literally just seen this I’ve just watched this and I’ve literally just gave it a try. It’s so much easier and I’ve honestly never seen the colours of my brushes since I have purchased them and I’ve been washing them all the time, but it will just not go away not entirely and I purchased like machines to wash them and stuff and honestly none of them washed like this

How abt using facial wash as the soap? I just thought it's for the face so it's okay to be used brushes

What about using oil soap to wash makeup brushes?

Actually, if you clean your hands properly, you can use your palm to help clean your brush. If you are just swirling it around in a cup, you will barely get anything off.

Doing this will kill you make up brushes. The idea is to only pick up product with the ends of the brushes and, when placing the make up using brushes, to actually place the make up, not smoosh it onto your face so that the product goes deeper into the brush than necessary. Then the only part of your brush that needs cleaning is the tip. Even if the ferule (the usually metallic bit with the glue and hairs inside that is between the brush and the handle) gets color on it, there are much better ways to clean it than to let it soak in olive oil and - what- some sort of soap?! There is glue in there that can be broken down and when it breaks down a little, you have crazy looking bedhead brushes and single hairs falling out. When you do something like letting it soak in olive oil, you will have big chunks of brush hairs falling out, if not the whole ferule itself depending on how the brush is made. Use as little water as possible. It’s ok to run the tips under cool water but don’t soak them. Mostly, you use brush cleaner or a micellar (but it takes 2x as long) water to clean them and, depending on what is in the brush cleaner, you can wet a paper towel to get the color off then have a dry one next to it to dry. It’s not a “how to do it fast” thing, but how to do it right. Unless you like buying new ones every year instead of every 20 years and, yes, I have some over 20 years old. Even synthetics. But please be gentle with your brushes and remember, cinema secrets, etc is good for between clients on a busy day or, if you are just working on yourself, to use the same brush on more than 1 shade but they are not deep cleaned, only rid of germs. It’s like you can shampoo your hair but sometimes it needs a conditioner and mask as well. So deep cleaning can’t go away just because we have dipped in isopropyl cinema secrets.

Are you sure that oil is going to dry? It's not going to leave your brushes you're putting on your face greasy? I think I'm gonna pass on the oil.
