(1) Soaking and washing: For dry powder brushes with less cosmetic residues, such as loose powder brushes and blush brushes. 

(2) Friction washing: For use with cream-like brushes, such as foundation brushes, concealer brushes, eyeliner brushes, and lip brushes; or dry powder brushes with more cosmetic residues, such as eye shadow brushes.

(3) Dry cleaning: For dry powder brushes with less cosmetic residues, and animal hair brushes that are not resistant to washing. In addition to protecting the brush, it is also very suitable for lazy people who don’t want to wash the brush.

Matters needing attention

(1) The brush just bought must be cleaned before use. 

(2) When cleaning the makeup brush, the water temperature should not be too high to prevent the glue at the junction of the bristles and the nozzle from melting and causing hair loss. It is sufficient to wash with cold water.

(3) Do not use alcohol to soak makeup brushes. High-concentration alcohol will cause permanent damage to the bristles.

(4) If you apply makeup every day, makeup brushes with a lot of makeup residue, such as cream brushes and individual dry powder brushes, should be washed with water once a week to keep them clean. Other dry powder brushes with little makeup residue should be dry-cleaned daily, just once a month.

(5) Cosmetic brushes made of animal hair are not resistant to washing. It is recommended to wash them once a month. Do not use Daiso puff cleaner when washing. 

(6) If the cream brush (foundation brush, concealer brush, etc.) you buy is made of animal hair, it is recommended that you wash it with water once a week. After all, clean bristles are far more important than the life of the bristles.
