i think its so nice to see someone who talks about about beauty just casually say "i didn't feel like putting on makeup" that's really powerful, love it!

Thanks for this vid. I learned so many things here. My mother never cared for makeup, and I really did not care at all until I got 41, so I am teaching myself now in my forties. I hope you and your family are doing good :-)

As MUA's, we have a ton of makeup. I am retired now, but still have brushes and makeup galore. My squirrel-hair and natural brushes are so important to me. I will never be able to get them again, so I really need to take good care of them. One person uses Micellar water, which sounds like a good idea. Anyway, I love your videos. Keep it up!

This was EXACTLY what I wanted to learn! How exciting. The oil with the dish soap, dating your products & cleaning the brush handles. All things I can now put in to practice. Thank you so much sweetie! Stay safe, stay healthy. Xxoo's.... PS-your hair looks adorbs🙂

You are exactly what clients are looking for. Being treated with clean, sanitized and even sterilized a bit means everything. Too many people in the beauty field do not commit to practicing proper sanitation and/or sterilization procedures.

Hi Elle, I spent 2 days reorganizing and decluttering my makeup and skincare stuff. Now I think I’ll spend the weekend cleaning it all! Thanks for this video, hope you’re well during this unfortunate situation!

good! i started to be a brush cleaning freak since 3 years ago :)

Hey! Thanks so much for this video - super helpful and informative. I really appreciate it! I did want to let you know that using OCD as an adjective, and synonym for being cleanly, can be hurtful to folks with OCD, like myself. OCD is a really complex and challenging mental illness that is so much more than just wanting things to be clean. Totally not trying to call you out, but rather call you in and share some knowledge just like you did with us today! Hope this helps. Take care and thanks again for the tips!

Great video! So timely, too. Been doing this for years (retired cosmetologist), but everyone doesn't know this, and everyone needs to be reminded! Lots of great tips, too. There's always something new. Thanks. ⚘

Love love love this!!! As a germophobe myself, I totally appreciate this! Always wondered how to sanitize the actual makeup in a palate. Plan on organizing and decluttering my collection, and am definitely going to use these tips! Thanks girl!!!

I cannot think of a more timely and helpful video. Very helpful, thank you!

Very informative! I'll be working on this over the next few days. Thanks, Elle!

Thank you so much Elle! This is such great info..as usual. Never knew that you could sanitize all these products like that! You always do such a wonderful job keeping the squad informed! 💖

Thank you. I clean my brushes weekly but had not thought about cleaning my makeup too.

Thank you. I never would have thought of adding oil to soap. I will try this.

Well I learned several new things today!! Love the beachy waves. Be blessed.

Thanks Elle for All of your great tips on cleaning brushes, makeup, etc.. Loved this video 👍❤

Thanks Elle for the great videos this week. Closet is all cleaned out and organized and now I have another “keep me busy” job. Hope you and your family are staying healthy!

OMG these tips are AMAZING! Using ingredients such as oil and alcohol makes so much sense! Such a timely video now that we may have a little more time to clean our makeup. So important to clean and disinfect especially in light of our current health crisis. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this episode! It was very informative!! Stay healthy!!

You’re just the best, Elle! Thank you so much!!!!!

This had perfect timing! Thanks elle!

This was so helpful. Love the oil and soap cleaning method!

Such good information! Can’t wait to deep clean!😉👍🏻

Real glad to see this, i been wanting something like this for awhile, without wasting zo much money but staying hygienic!👍🧡

Great video! I have been using this brush cleaning technique ever since I first saw this video and you are right, it works way better than traditional brush cleaners!! Thank you!

This was great! I like how you just dipped your brushes and then washed them. Using oil makes total sense. 😊

I was always worried about drying out my brushes when cleaning them. Problem solved with the addition of oil to the soap! I want to thank you. I am in my 60s and had given up on makup. But with your help, and a few other u-tubers, I have begun to enjoy makup again. That Cosrx snail mucin is the best! Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much. I dropped my entire Ingot eyeshadow pallet. If you are unfamiliar with them, you buy each eyeshadow individually and create your own pallet. So I dropped it and bam. Eyeshadows popped out everywhere onto my bathroom floor. It was not my greatest moment emotionally. But now I can sanitize them. Because it's 20 colors I'd have to rebuy.

Great video Elle thank you so much!! I learned so much and I’m cleaning all my brushes today.

Oh Elle, thank you! I have always used dish soap, but never an oil. I’ve been cleaning all my makeup and organizing it.❤️😘

Genius idea right now!! Lol One of the reasons I love this channel

Loved this! Gonna go wash my brushes right now!

wow it looks so clean after using the oil! I didn't know to use this, thank you!

My dear friend who has also been my makeup artist for almost 20 years, he does freelance now but worked for MAC for years as well as being a trainer at cosmetology schools has always told me not to invest in makeup brush cleaners. They are too drying and over time can ruin your brushs. He tells me to use conditioner-just whatever conditioner I would use on my hair and that helps lift the makeup but also conditions and then of course to gently make sure the bristles are in place and lay flat to dry. This is a super similar idea and I love it and will be trying it. Thank you!

What a PERFECT video! Thank you girl!

Great video!! After an eye infection I'm looking to sanitize my makeup and I am a bit confused with what to use for spraying on brush handles and the eyeshadow. What exactly is the product I should be looking to get for that. Please help 😊

Cleaning today! Thanks for the motivation, yes staying in

Thanks for this video girly. Just a quick fyi. You always want to disinfect with 71% alchohol. Alcohol has the longest contact time needed out of any disinfectant. Bleach is 60 seconds. Pine sol is 50 alcohol is 100 inorder to disinfect yet it has the quickest absorption rate so it absorbs before its gona disinfect anything. So the higher the % the quicker it absorbs so u want 71% so it can stay in contact long enough without absorbing before doing so. In the hospital we've learned to always use 71% and thats what we use. we leave it wet on the surface for 100 seconds so it will disinfect. Absorbing before that wont be effective. Please note this in comments so people know to use 71 and not 90 thanks girly. you look amazing. Please dont apologize for how u look. That makes me so sad cuz your beautiful and dont need makeup. Silly girl. Love u elle!!

This is very helpful and informative. Thank you!

This was great info! I really haven’t felt that the product you buy to wash your brushes in don’t really work very well but this makes perfect sense! The oil not only helps clean but I think also conditions the brushes. I had never thought about spraying my makeup with alcohol but that really does make sense . So 🙏 for the info.🥰

Wow I have never thought to clean the outside of my skin care products unless there was something visibly on it. Great tip!

Great video Elle. I got a lot of time to do this now. Thank you. Love Anne 🌷🙏❤

Hey it me again. Just wanted to say I just recently found you and I am going through and listening to all your videos. I’m a ICU. Nurse, 62 years old and off work due to a injury. So hard not being with my team to take care of our patients. Thank you for helping me learn

this is so helpful, I didn't know about the oil, thanks so much you are so informative!

Omg... I’m going to be cleaning for days!!! Pretty consistent with brush cleaning, but my makeup and skincare! 😫😫😫. Thanks, Elle! 😘

I never thought to clean the skincare bottles, brush handles or the inside of a pallet. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I will be cleaning all of my beauty products this way from now on. I appreciate you sharing this with us. Hope you and your family are well.❤

So good. I'm so grateful

#ellesquad #staytotheend very informative! love the way you clean the makeup. And I was going to ask you about the sponges awesome💃🐰💋🎀

Thank you so much for this video. It really was an eye opener for me!

Brilliant video as always. Thank you 😊

Awesome idea/vid! ❤️

Thank you Elle! This was so informative. Especially the makeup and skincare protocol. Now I have plans today lol ! :)

Elle, Thanks for the great tip. It's easier and much more affordable !!

Thank you for doing this video Elle 🤗

Thank you! Very helpful!

Good tips! Btw my eyebrows came out great thanks to your tutorial. Making a mark on top of your eyebrows as a guideline made all the difference.

Thanks! It seems your method is the most complete!

This was so good. I really learned a lot!

Great video! I'm going through my makeup and purging before buying anything new. So many things expiring at about the same time. I've been taking care of my brushes but will now be cleaning my makeup!! xoxo

Thank you!! You look beautiful without makeup!!!

So helpful and yet again so knowledgeable elle. Will be doing these for sure and have shared your video with some friends. Hope u and ur family r well xxxxxx

So I washed all my brushes while watching your Vid. I have heard about using oil with soap, but never did it until now. Thanks for explaining why. Thank you so much & wishing you & your family well. 😀😀😀😀

Thanks for the tips.

Thanks so much that was really helpful and informative!

Thank you for the great information never knew that that was the way to sanitize your palettes.

Great tips!!!

I recently started using the Castile soap and it works amazing actually. Gets the sponges and my brushes so clean

Thx. Great information.

Thanks Elle, great video idea. I have been doing makeup decluttering....looking for distractions for homebound stir crazyness! I will add in the alcohol cleansing while I am doing it. Great idea! I use Dawn dishwashing liquid and olive oil to cleanse my brushes.

Great info. Thanks

Great video!

Before I even finished this video I went to go wash the brushes I have been using lately... BLOWN away. Nothing has washed them as well as this technique! I ended up washing all of my brushes! Old ones that I could never get makeup residue off of. All I can say is thank you thank you!

I guess if you are sharing your brushes with others this would be useful at the present time, but I suggest that you should not be allowing anyone to touch your brushes, and you should sanitise your hands before touching your brushes and/face.

Very helpful, I have never cleaned my beauty cosmetics only my brushes. Yikes need to get started😉

What a very helpful video, Elle! I need to add some oil to my soap...and I need to clean the handles as you did! I have some 91% alcohol; I need to start using it in a spray bottle. Many, many thanks!

Thanks for this info.

Loved your tips. I do a pretty good job of keeping my brushes clean but I need to get a spray spray bottle of alcohol set up to sanitize my makeup, etc. We really can’t be too careful right now! Thanks a bunch. 😃

Great video I learned so much, really helpful!
