Clean Your Makeup Brushes Without Expensive Brush Cleaners

I have been procrastinating cleaning my makeup brushes because I didn’t want to spend the money on expensive makeup brush cleaners! I decided to try cleaning my makeup brushes with my Seventh Generation dish soap. I was blown away with the results! My makeup brushes are visibly cleaner and it was so easy to do! My precious 4 year old daughter even helped! Here are the easy and quick steps to get your makeup brushes super clean!

First, I put some warm water in a bowl with one squirt of the dish soap. Next I swirled my makeup brushes around in the sudsy water for about a minute. You will notice how the water takes on the color of the makeup that was on the brush! The brushes are getting clean right before my eyes! It’s instant gratification, which doesn’t happen too often!

After swirling the brush around for a minute, I rinsed the brush with warm water under the faucet for about another minute. After the rinsing was complete, I gently dried the brush of with a paper towel.

Since the water in the bowl was so dark with makeup, I decided to repeat the entire process to make certain that all of the yucky makeup was cleaned out of my brush. Some brushes even took a third cleaning. After drying the brushes a final time with a paper towel, I simply laid the visibly cleaner makeup brushes out to dry overnight.

I really was amazed how clean my brushes were, how easy it was to clean them, and how affordable it was! Give your dish soap a try and let me know how it works out for you!
