I deep clean with shampoo every time after a job; in between persons, spot clean with brush cleaner & alcohol~ for re-usable sponges like the beauty blender, I really recommend cleaning them each time~ and of course with brushes, it is a good idea to AT LEAST spot clean after each use because then you'd be spreading bacteria from one end of your face to the other~ >__< I am more careful due to my acne-prone skin~ ^^ But I'm really happy to see a post about brush cleaning~ :)

I use baby shampoo too but lately I've been really lazy with cleaning my brushes. I'm not gonna say how long because it's quite disgusting! LOL

And do you think Seige is available in Canada?

I *try* to clean my foundation brush after every use with Shampoo - I just prefer using a clean brush with liquid foundation. With my regular brushes probably about once every two weeks - although I only really wear make-up about 4 times during those weeks! xx

I deep clean mine once a week, usually during Saturday nights so I'd leave it to dry during the night and I can use it Sunday morning. =)

2009-11-09T03:00:33.652-05:00

I spot clean after every use with my homemade brush cleaner learnt from Encore (YT) and deep clean with Baby shampoo every week/two, depending on how often I use the brush.

I use the beauty blender cleanser for my brushes & blender since they messed up my order and sent me two sets :D BUT, I don't clean them often enough.. I need to start spot cleaning! ><

&& thanks to you I found some sheet masks from the face shop at my local walgreens :D Not much selection, but better than nothing! ^_^

I wash mine around once a week. But for the ones that I use a lot - like powder - I switch to another one after a 3-4 days.

I love to see the colours come out of the brushes!

I try really hard to clean my brushes 1x a week (especially my kabuki since I use mineral powder and it does really get kind of ... gunky... after a while) but usually it ends up being more like every 6-10 days. Sunday is my designated brush cleaning day (after I do my makeup in the morning) since I like to start Monday fresh. Unfortunately, I took a nap after getting back from the airport today so I'll have to get up early and wash my face brushes tomorrow morning lol (they take about 16 hours to dry fully). I do wash my concealer and paintpot brushes at least every 2 days though. Thankfully I have enough eyeshadow brushes that I can usually do a wide range of colors throughout the week and only have to wash them 1x a week.

I love that you use the Mango scented kids shampoo hehehe. My fav brush cleaner is Dr. Bronner's unscented castille soap. It's really gentle but still gets my white e/s brush WHITE. I am definitely going to check out those brush cleansers though, for everyday. Seems like it would be way easier - especially on my blush brush since I often switch between two color families.

hi mona! i read elsewhere that using conditioner when cleaning makeup brushes is a no no? i recently cleaned my Shu Uemura brushes with Tsubaki shampoo then used the conditioner, it definitely made my brushes softer, but i feel like they're too soft now and i don't think thats good. :(

2009-11-08T15:23:35.635-05:00

I try to stick to weekly cleansing, but it gets delayed to every second and third week @_@ I'm bad, I know!
And usually I use nourishing shampoo or conditioner. No special brush cleanser stuff.
Oh, and as much as I can I try to limit the touching with water to the bristles only.

2009-11-08T13:47:50.675-05:00

I clean liquid stuff (ie. foundation brush, liquid/gel liner brush, concealer brush, etc.) after every use with MAC Brush cleaner. And then my powder brushes I clean maybe once every 2 weeks with MAC brush cleaner.. I'm so paranoid about getting my brushes wet so I try not to use water... Maybe I should start because I'm going through brush cleaner so quickly!
