How do I clean my bronzer/blusher brush?

I needed a bigger blusher brush so she gave me hers but it still has some shine on it form her brown bronzer, I was wondering how I cleaned it in an easy way?


How do I clean my bronzer/blusher brush?
If you have a facial cleaner like Neutrogena or even just a mild soap, use that to clean it and make sure you get it in there good. Keep cleaning it until the water washes clear, squeeze out the water and let it dry. It's good to wash your brushes every month or more, it helps keep your face clear of pimples as well.How do I clean my bronzer/blusher brush?
If you don't have brush cleanser (which is the easiest and quickest way to clean brushes) you can clean it with any mild shampoo or facial cleanser. Just apply the soap onto the bristles and brush it back and forth into your palm until the soap suds are white, rinse it fully clean, and lay the brush flat to dry (or hang it upside down if you can). It'll take a while to dry but it'll be as good as new once it is.





P.S. Try to avoid getting water onto the metal part that touches the handle and avoid submerging the entire brush into water because it'll effect the glue holding it together. This is also the reason for lying it flat to dry or upside down. It extends the life of the brush.
Just fill a cup with water and dish washing liquid,


Put the brush in for a few hours,


rinse,


let it naturally dry on a flat surface so the bristles stay the same.
Wash in diluted shampoo, especially if it is a natural hair brush such as sable. You can use your blow dryer or let it air dry by standing it upside down in a cup.
Just put it under cold water for a bit gently gripping the brush from the silvery top bit (metal) to the tip of the bristles.
Wash it in dish detergent, this will get all the oils out, rinse well and let it dry completely

Go to Ulta or Sephora. They have brush shampoo there.
