00:00 If your makeup brushes look like this,

00:02 you definitely need to be washing them.

00:06 As a makeup artist, I'm constantly washing my brushes,

00:09 especially the ones for my kit.

00:11 These are my personal ones, but I'm using the IsoClean.

00:14 This is the carbon brush soap.

00:16 So what you do is there's this little,

00:19 like you put it between your fingers

00:21 to clean the brushes on.

00:23 You're gonna use like lukewarm water

00:27 and wet your brushes pointing down.

00:29 Try not to get water inside.

00:31 This is called the ferrule of the brush

00:33 because if you do that,

00:34 that's what makes the brush hair come out a lot quicker

00:38 because it's loosening the glue.

00:39 You're warming it up.

00:40 There's glue inside this ferrule.

00:41 So wet them pointing down

00:45 and then you're gonna take it

00:46 and you're just gonna rub it.

00:48 Get some soap on the brush.

00:53 Rub it again.

00:55 And already you can see all the stuff coming off.

00:58 But then you're just gonna rub it around inside this

00:61 to get all of that makeup out.

00:66 I don't know about you,

00:67 but for me, this is like really satisfying.

00:70 And if you're breaking out while doing your own makeup,

00:74 it's probably because you haven't cleaned your brushes

00:77 in a while or at all.

00:79 I know some people have told me

00:82 that they've never washed their brushes ever.

00:84 So your brushes harbor a lot of grime,

00:88 bacteria, oils, all the things from your skin

00:91 that you don't want to be getting on your skin.

00:93 This brush was actually really dirty

00:95 because it's my foundation brush.

00:98 Hi, baby.

00:101 And I'm just gonna clean the bristles one more time.

00:107 And then you just lay these flat to dry.

00:112 Squeeze out all the excess water.

00:114 But already you can tell how much cleaner that is.
