My Homemade Brush Cleanser :)

Because I am fond of using make up brushes, I always want to keep them clean

most specially my face brushes to avoid any breakouts ;)

I used to spritz my brushes with rubbing alcohol to kill any bacteria

that resides in brushes. And with that, I 'deep clean' my brushes every week.

BTW, cleaning brushes are quite tiring and it does not dry up quite fast.

So, I searched on youtube on how do they clean their brushes.
I stumbled on makeupbytiffanyd's and enkoremakeup's channel. Both of them ofcourse

uses MAC brush cleanser in which no way I am going to buy one. (LOL).

And I'm really thankful than Koren of enkoremakeup made a tutorial on

how to make your brush cleanser!

Here's what you'll need:

1) A cup of distilled water - I used Alkaline water

2) 3/4 cup of rubbing alcohol - I used 70% cause that's the highest one available locally

3) A teaspoon of antibacterial dish washing soap - I used Joy Antibac.

4) A teaspoon of NOURISHING shampoo - I used L'oreal for dry hair

5) A container of course ;)

Just mix them all together and DO NOT SHAKE

shaking will make the shampoo turn into suds.

(that's what happened to me...oops! then I ended up removing the suds)

Then viola! here's my demo ;)

This is my ELF stippling brush, I clean this everyday so the residues that

you see here are from today's make up.

A palmful of your cleanser is enough.

Just let the brush soak up all of the cleanser.

Gently rub your brush with a tissue, well I usually use a handkerchief or a towel that is smooth.

In this case, I used a tissue cause the towel that I am using is in the laundry :)

It's partly clean here. But a lot is gone. :)

With another re-run. Look! it's cuhlean! :)
