How Often do I Clean my Brushes?

This is just a quick little post to talk to all of my Lovelies about cleaning your cosmetic brushes!

Okay! So over the past few weeks/months I have been experimenting to see how long I could go before I felt like I needed to clean my brushes. (Now I know the time for me could be different for you, but I am going on the basis of using the same foundation and concealer brush every day - seven days a week.) The brushes I use are the EcoTools ones and they are pretty great, though if you are after an airbrushed look then I suggest looking at another brand.

There, just a little review for you to get you started! :)

I have found that cleaning my brushes every 5-7 days works pretty well for me, though I will admit that by the end of the time period my brushes have become a little stiffer and courser to work with but overall they are still useable. I guess this means that I can either wash them on a Friday so they are all nice and lovely for the weekend or I can wash them on a Sunday night and have them fresh and ready for Monday morning.

FYI I do use an all natural liquid hand soap to wash my brushes in because it is soft on the bristles but also cleans them really well. If you would like me to tell you more about my brush cleaning methods let me know, either on here, Instagram or Ask.fm. All of which have links all over this blog.
