Ask & You Shall Receive: How To Clean Brushes?
By Beaut.ie  | Sep 9, 2008

Muireasa contacted us in a quandry over how to get her MAC 187 foundation brush spic n' span. "I use baby shampoo to wash it", she says, but adds that, "it now feels a little 'gunked up'  in spite of being washed religiously every week". A big part of the gunkiness is, she feels, down to the fact that her foundation choices are Estee's Double Wear and Double Wear Light products, both of which boast long-lasting formulations.

What to do?  I always use mild shampoo to clean my own brushes, and that seems to do the trick, but if you need something more heavy duty, then go for a pro brush cleanser, like Make Up For Ever's Pro Brush Cleanser, or MAC's Brush Cleanser. Designed to cut through all manner of pancake, grease and gloop, your tools will be pristine in no time.
