I need YOUR HELP to find a way or product that will clean my brushes and make them look as good as new! I've tried plenty and I'll share some of my ways with you and tell you whether or not my methods/products work.
I'll first start off with the only brush cleaning product I've ever used:
Sonia Kashuk Brush & Sponge Cleanser - $6.99

I would wet my brushes a little bit and then spray this onto my brushes. It kind of cleans the brushes...to me it's more like a disinfectant spray. The smell is unappealing and this cleanser makes my brushes sticky and actually doesn't remove any of the makeup from my brushes--maybe a little. I don't recommend buying this!
The next method to clean my brushes is to use baby shampoo, which usually works a bit except using baby shampoo doesn't really disinfect the brush and rid it of bacteria. It removes most of the makeup, but not all of it, which I really want all of the makeup removed. Everyone that I know uses this method. If you haven't heard of it before, you simply pour some baby shampoo onto a plate or even a little onto the palm of your hand and then swirl the dirty brush onto your hand until the makeup comes off. Rinse afterwards and repeat if needed. Also, I've tried regular hand soap and I don't recommend it. This may help disinfect your brushes a bit but it's for your hands not your brushes and hand soap is horrible at removing makeup from brushes.
Other than the two methods above, I mix olive oil and dish soap together in a plate and then dip the slightly wet brush onto the plate and then swirl the rest onto the palm of my hand. I rinse afterwards and repeat if needed. Sometimes this method works well but lately it hasn't been taking all of the makeup off. Also, I find myself adding too much dish soap or olive oil which makes my brushes too oily or else dry from the dish soap.
What do you recommend for cleaning brushes? Please comment and LMK!!!!
