Cleaning your brushes regularly is so important, as well as it been so annoying! I don't think it a job any of us looks forward too. But doing it is the best thing you can do for your skin as it stops an dirt or bacteria building up and going into your pores. Usually after every makeup application on my self I just temporarily keep my brushes clean using circular motions on a hair doughnut (yes a hair doughnut! check out my previous post on beauty hacks for under five euro) or a piece of tissue. This doesn't really give your brushes the clean they really need but its a good way to keep your brushes fresh between deep cleaning. Deep cleaning for me is so important to ensure i'm getting rid of any dead skin,oils and bacteria that clings to brushes. I normally use baby shampoo and warm water to deep clean my brushes.
However, I always worry about the bacteria that builds up between these washes. That is where the Penneys brush cleanser comes in very handy! It says it contains alcohol but doesn't say what content of alcohol. Ether way for only €2.50 it really does a good job for cleaning in between deep washes. At least you know there is something there to fight off bacteria which is better than using nothing.
I took my Inglot stippling brush probably the oldest and dirtiest brush I own (don't judge!) to test out the brush cleanser.
I started by spraying some cleanser onto some tissue and then some cleanser directly on the brush.
Then using circular motion I rubbed the brush into the tissue.
The dirt really did come off the brush leaving it looking and smelling really fresh. I find the smell of the cleanser very pleasant.
I would recommend you to buy this product for €2.50 it really did do its job, and like I said its prefect to keep your brushes clean during the period between deep cleansing your brushes. The cleanser dries very quickly so you can almost using the brush straight away after cleaning it. Very one should have one of these in there make-up bag.
