Introduction

Proper care and maintenance of your makeup brushes are essential to ensure their longevity and performance. With the right care routine, you can keep your brushes clean, hygienic, and in optimal condition for flawless makeup application. Follow these professional tips to care for your makeup brushes:

Regular Cleaning

1.1 It is recommended to clean your brushes regularly, ideally every 1-2 weeks, depending on frequency of use.

• Start by rinsing the bristles under lukewarm water to remove any residual makeup.
  

• Apply a small amount of mild shampoo or brush cleanser to your palm or a brush cleaning mat.
  

• Gently swirl the brush bristles in the cleanser, working up a lather.
  

• Rinse the bristles thoroughly under running water until the water runs clear.
  

• Gently squeeze out excess water without pulling or twisting the bristles.
  

• Reshape the brush bristles to their original shape.
  

• Lay the brushes flat on a clean towel and allow them to air dry completely before using them again.
  

Deep Cleaning

2.1 In addition to regular cleaning, it is recommended to perform a deep cleaning of your brushes at least once a month.

• Deep cleaning involves using a brush cleaning solution or a mixture of gentle shampoo and warm water.
  

• Submerge the brush bristles into the cleaning solution and gently swirl them for a few minutes.
  

• Rinse the brushes thoroughly under running water until the water runs clear.
  

• Follow steps e-g(Regulay Cleaning) for drying the brushes.
  

Avoiding Excess Moisture

3.1 When cleaning your brushes, be careful not to immerse the ferrule (the metal part that holds the bristles) into water. Excess moisture can loosen the glue and cause shedding.

3.2 Focus on cleansing the bristles while keeping the ferrule dry.

Proper Drying

4.1 Always allow your brushes to dry flat or with the bristles facing downward to prevent water from seeping into the ferrule.

4.2 Avoid drying brushes in an upright position as this can lead to water pooling in the ferrule and damaging the brush over time.

4.3 Never use a blow dryer or direct heat source to speed up the drying process, as this can damage the bristles.

Storage

5.1 Store your clean and dry brushes in a brush holder or organizer to maintain their shape and protect them from dust and damage.

5.2 Avoid storing brushes in airtight containers or bags, as this can lead to moisture buildup and mold growth.

Avoid Excessive Pressure

6.1 When applying makeup, avoid applying excessive pressure on the brush bristles, as this can cause them to splay or fray.

6.2 Use gentle, sweeping motions for a smooth and even application.

Avoiding Contact with Liquids

7.1 Minimize contact between the handle and ferrule of your brushes with liquids, as this can cause the adhesive to weaken over time.

7.2 When using wet products, such as creams or liquids, take care to prevent them from seeping into the ferrule.
