Instructions

  1. Small 100 0427  800x600  1307060426

    Your everyday dish soap does wonders for cutting through grease but did you know it's also great for cleaning your brushes?

  2. Small 100 0429  800x600  1307060477

    Add a dollop of soap on a saucer, or in a bowl.

  3. Small 100 0430  800x600  1307060519

    You need olive oil. Why olive oil? Olive oil will help the brushes stay their natural way. Olive oil is also a noncomodegenic, which means it doesn't clog pores.

  4. Small 100 0431  800x600  1307060634

    Add a few drops of olive oil into the soap.

  5. Small 100 0432  800x600  1307060813

    Swirl your brush (this is my foundation brush) into the olive soapy mess.

  6. Small 100 0436  800x600  1307060957

    Then gently rub the brush back and forth across your palm to get the excess make uo off.

  7. Small 100 0437  800x600  1307061002

    Rinse in so-so water.

  8. Small 100 0435  800x600  1307061029

    Then, sit the brush upside down in a cp and let the water drain down.
