My art teacher in college always told us not to ever use hot water on brushes, as it will melt the glue that holds the bristles in place and they will fall out easily. This was a great tip!

@mairaasif758 not at all. You probably used to much oil. I use more soap. I let them sit outside during day.

Thank you for this video! One warning about the vinegar- I've heard white vinegar is great for removing certain types of glue so I would be really hesitant to get it anywhere near brush handles! Using it in a solution that you only use for a minute or two is probably the best way to keep your brushes safe from fallout!

The second method may have been the quickest but it will destroy your brushes even quicker

Can we use coconut oil.....

I basically handle my makeup brushes the same I do with my regular watercolor brushes. Wash them in slightly warm water (not hot) with mild soap to not ruin the hairs /fibers and dry them with the bristle side down to keep the water away from the base. I actually use my drying brush stand for both lol it’s really handy and made out of metal so you can properly clean it and sterilize after using it.

Interesting. 😁Do you use dish soap??

Yep, I've always used oil and soap to wash my brushes. Although, I don't mix the oil with the soap because the sole purpose of the soap is to break down the oil. I just double cleanse: oil first, rinse, soap, and final rinse.

These were great!! Olive oil and soup was fantastic and made my brushes sooo soft. I did have to make a slight modification because I have a skin thing, but my dish soap worked great too! 🫧🫧

Thank you for sharing your video with us regarding cleaning makeup brushes. I want to tell you it really work number two with the vinegar hot water and the dawn soap. I put a little twist on it I put the water in an old bluebonnet cup (lol), put the water in the microwave and let it heat for a minute and 30 seconds. After which I put vinegar, baby shampoo a tablespoon, and a tablespoon of white vinegar stir it put my brushes in it and also put my puff pad in it as well and within 30 seconds to everything was very clean even my makeup puff. Again thank you for sharing. You may want to try this method against well. Keep up the good work!

I found using a clarifying shampoo like Neutragena’s clear clarifying shampoo works pretty well, but did take a few times to rub and rinse to get them clean, especially the dirtier and/or larger brushes.

I use Ivory bar soap on my brushes. I have never had any problems with it but I'm probably one of the only people in the world who washes my brushes and sponges every time I use them. Ivory soap is super gentle too.

Inspired by the 1st method, don't go to your kitchen for your oil, any facial oils for removing makeup works. I mixed it with detergent instead of dish soap, and it worked too!

What type of facial oil did you use?

I use mostly just dish soap and warm water. I might try adding the olive oil

Never could get my makeup brushes clean. I’m going to try method two with the water, dish soap and white vinegar.

I’ve done the first method before with the virgin olive oil but the oil left an oily residue and I had to repeatedly clean them with dish soap to get rid of it. The second method with the vinegar seemed the best but in theory the third method which is so similar to the 2nd would work great.

Okay so I've tried several methods, however not these, the comments are good, however I Love my Ulta solid brush cleaner , fast easy and really gets the job done

I just use MAC brush cleaner and I’m done. Love it 🥰

I'm going to try some mild body wash from the dollar store. I have cheap brushes that work fine. I've been able to glue any loose parts back on.

What duo fiber brush is that? The bronzer brush also looks like the IT Cosmetics brush everyone is duping. Is your bronzer a dupe? I couldn’t see the lettering. I want to get a dupe so badly!! I just haven’t seen anyone use one, and I’ve only seen pictures. I love yours! And your duo fiber brush!!

in my opinion you shouldn't soak your brushes if the water goes over the brisels. i use the shampoo - vinegar - conditiner method but it's only good for bruses only one person uses.(not for professionals). i have one set of bruses, i have been washing them once a week for 7 years and they still feel brand new.(they're from Real Teqniques)

Thanks!

I like any method that does the job .

* Mentioning how you don't want the water to get into your brush's handle (the metal neck of the brush which is the most vital part of the brush is called a "ferrule" btw) * * minutes later * * dunking the whole brush including the ferrule into a soapy acidic solution * I-

Thanks for this! I went straight to option 2 on my own brushes without finishing the video haha

I prefer the second method. Less time yet very effective 👍🏼thank you for sharing

I don't suggest hot water. It can melt the glue and loosen the brisels

Wow! Thank you I am happy that now I don’t have to buy anything from make up stores to clean. I would love to know which make you brushes you consider good quality from your experience.

The method you use should depend on the product you are removing. Like dissolves like.

Wont any vinegar residue left on the brushes damage ur skin? I am new to makeup and learning about basics lol

I liked 2 one this all thing are easily available at home also in the lock down

I have to say when I first watch the video, I was a little skeptical as to if this would work, but holy shit. Let me just say this is probably the best hack I’ve seen thus far my brushes look brand new I was going to go buy new ones but now I don’t need to save me a couple bucks and I can’t wait to pass this along to others

Oh thank you! I had no idea that’s how the handles came off 😅

GREAT JOB!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH BLESSINGS

All valid too me, but Better to Use Mild soap! me, using J&J baby wash/shampoo in luke warm or cold water and yup, wash downward to avoid water residue that holds the glue. I also had brush rack to hang downward and then dry.

#SpreadLove during these times

I clean my brushes using an old facial cleanser gets the job done i recommend 👍🏽😭😂

I usually clean them with micellar water, is it wrong?

I personally use sone shampoo first, swirl it over my palm and tgen clean it. Afterwards I use some condiotioner and do the exact same process to take the remaining gunk out, but it also makes em really soft and smell reaaaally good. If you wanna disinfect them spray them with some alcohol, but not a lot! ^-^

Can you use apple cider vinegar rather than white vinegar?

I shake my brushes after rinsing them and make sure to wipe from the tip of the handle through the metal part and squeeze the bristles so drain any water. I like to wash my make up brushes in J & J regular baby shampoo. I just pour a small amount into an empty plastic tumbler and add warm water then I place the brushes in the glass and swirl them around. I also use a plastic rubber facial scrubber to swirl the brushes against the little plastic bristles, then I rinse them and dry them on a soft towel, then I shake them and place them in a plastic brush dryer so they are upside down. TIP: rinse the brushes in COLD water to completely dissolve the soap molecules so they don't leave residue in the bristles. I have also used lavender castile soap but it is harder to rinse away.

Can I use coconut oil replace of olive oil

Anything that was cleaned with vinegar will not smell like vinegar at all after you let it air dry. People are always scared of using vinegar because of the smell, but vinegar EVAPORATES. It never leaves a smell once the object is dry. I used to rinse my hair with a vinegar solution, and it never smelled.

Do not submerge and/or let your brushes sit in any water or soapy water over time it will loosen the glue in the ferrule and your bristles will start to fall out.

Wouldn’t putting the makeup brushes in a cup with any liquid make it also go inside the brush handle and mess with the glue ? like you said it wasn’t good if you put the brush facing up on the water from the faucet

Agree. I use Johnson's baby shampoo. Never soak brushes in a cup of soapy water. Use luke warm water and dry lying flat. That was a bad idea with the cup.

I use vinegar to wash delicates and the vinegar will not leave a smell. You don't have to use any scented soap bc there's no vinegar smell after. It's fine just using vinegar

If you use too much water, the wooden handle will soak up the water and swell. When the wood shrinks back down the brush end will pop off.

I washed my moms makeup brushes and I did the second hack and it was pink from her blush and the bottom of the bristles were pink and I don’t know what it looked like before she used it.

i figured that if i could wash off makeup on my face with an oil cleanser that i could use it for my brushes as well...is that alright?? haha ive only had brushes for about a month only so i cant tell of any long term effects.

I followed the first step, but instead of olive oil, I used baby oil, and it worked as well!
