Brush Cleanser

Brush cleaner: Keep your makeup flawless.

Brush cleaners are perfect for keeping your makeup tools in good condition. Thanks to their formula, they easily remove makeup residue and bacteria that accumulate on the bristles. With them, your brushes last longer and you ensure clean and healthy makeup every time.

How to choose the best brush cleaner for you?

Choosing the best brush cleaner depends on your preferences and needs. Finding the right one is ideal for keeping your brushes in good condition and achieving the desired result.

• Liquid and Solid Brush Cleaner Ingredients: We find mainly two types of formats: the solid soap format, such as Jovo Brush Soap, which are more suitable for deeper cleaning, and the spray format, such as Isoclean's Sabotage Brush Cleaner, which is more used for express cleaning.
• Compatibility with Natural or Synthetic Brushes: Brushes with natural fibers are recommended for use in the application of powder products, so both soap and spray cleaners can be used, while brushes with synthetic fibers are more suitable for products in creamier and/or liquid format, so we recommend using solid soap cleaners.
• Durability and Maintenance: It is recommended to deep clean makeup brushes once a week, to avoid the accumulation of bacteria and residues from the makeup itself. It is very important to ensure that brushes are dried to avoid mildew or new bacteria. In addition to avoiding poor hygiene, cleaning these brushes makes their usage life last even longer.

Most popular brush cleaners

• Liquid Solutions and Sprays: Isoclean's spray brush cleaner is a product that, thanks to its results, has gone viral on social media. It removes germs, dirt and makeup in just 60 seconds.
• Solid Soaps for Deep Cleaning: Among the solid cleaners we highlight the natural soap with tea tree by Wailoha, also a product listed as viral, ensures deep cleaning with natural and handmade products.

How to use your brush cleaner correctly?

To ensure proper cleaning of your brushes, we recommend the following steps:

• Apply the cleaner: If you use a liquid or spray cleaner, apply a small amount directly to the bristles of the brush or in a clean container. If you use a solid soap, wet the bristles and rub gently over the soap.
• Clean the bristles: Gently rub the bristles in circles in the palm of your hand or in a silicone cleaning glove. This helps the cleanser remove makeup, oils and bacteria build-up.
• Rinse (if necessary): If the cleanser requires rinsing, rinse the bristles thoroughly with warm water, avoiding wetting the base where they are attached. Some cleaners do not require rinsing; in that case, just remove excess product with a clean cloth.
• Dry the brush: After cleaning, gently press the bristles with a towel to remove excess water. Place brushes in a horizontal or downward slanting position to air dry without water damage to the base.

Frequently asked questions about brush cleaning

Why is it essential to clean your makeup brushes regularly?

Cleaning makeup brushes frequently is key to avoiding bacteria buildup and product residue that can affect skin health and lead to breakouts or irritation. In addition, clean brushes allow for a more precise and even makeup application, ensuring colors and textures look their best. Keeping your brushes in good condition also prolongs their lifespan.

What is the best cleaner for natural hair brushes?

To care for natural hair brushes, the best cleanser is usually one that combines deep cleaning with gentle, natural ingredients. Liquid or solid soaps specifically for brushes are ideal, especially those with moisturizing formulas and free of sulfates or alcohol, which can dry out or damage natural bristles.

The proper use of brush cleaners can remove most bacteria and makeup residues, provided they contain disinfectant ingredients. However, not all cleaners guarantee total disinfection, so it is important to choose specific products with antibacterial properties.
