How Often You Should Be Cleaning Them

Brushes used with liquid formulas – like those used for foundation or concealer – should be getting a good wash once each week. Other brushes that are used with powders, such as eye shadow or powder blush, deserve a cleaning once every two weeks.

Washing Your Brushes Like a Pro

During this process, keep the base of the brush head away from the soap and water. Start by wetting the bristles of the brush with warm water. Add a few drops of soap and gently massage the bristles of your makeup brush in your palm, and then gently massage the bristles with your fingers to further remove the gunk.
