Get all the brushes you wish to clean. Place them on a clean surface.
To avoid water entering the ferrule, hold your brushes downward at an angle and run lukewarm water over them. Wash till clear.
Pour warm water into a shallow bowl and add a little light liquid soap or brush cleanser. Swirl water to make soap.
Dip each brush into soapy water without immersing it. To lather, gently swirl the brush in your palm or over a brush cleaning pad.
Rewash the brush in lukewarm water, gently reshaping the bristles to remove soap residue. Rinse until water runs clear
Squeeze the bristles with your fingers to drain water. Avoid twisting or pulling bristles to harm or loosen them.
Return the brush to its natural shape with your fingertips. Distribute bristles evenly.
Lay brushes flat on a clean towel or paper towels to air-dry. Avoid touching brushes to prevent damage and retain form.
Cleaning foundation and concealer brushes every 1-2 weeks and eyeshadow and other brushes every 2-4 weeks is ideal.
