How To Dry Makeup Brushes Properly

by | Blog

How to dry makeup brushes is something many makeup artists struggle with? In fact, I used to have the same problem when I was a student. My brushes would come out so dry that they would fall off my brush. My solution then and now is to store the brushes in my linen closet. They dry pretty quickly, but not as quick as if you had stored them in the freezer.

If you have found your brushes lost or have just lost them altogether, you have a few options. The first is to try to find the brush and thaw it out. If this does not work, you will need to take the brush to a professional cosmetic artist who is trained to handle cosmetics products. Make sure you let the artist know the type of brush you are missing so that they can find it for you. I have heard some horror stories about artists getting makeup on customers’ faces if they do not tell the artist the type of brush they are missing.

Another way to get the brush back is to buy another brush. I am not going to say throw out the old one because you may need that one later. The way to go is to make sure you either get a new brush or store your existing brushes properly. To store your brushes properly, you will want to put them in their own individual zippered plastic container. Label it with the type of brush and date it. This way, if you need it in a hurry, you can just pull out the label and grab what you need.

A great way to store your brushes is by placing them in an empty baby bath tub. Your brushes will be completely clean water and you will not be transferring bacteria to the tub. The only thing you will need to do is soak the brush in warm water. Once the brush is completely soaked, you can squeeze out the excess water and gently wipe away the soap residue from your makeup brushes.

Some people have found that placing their brushes in a plastic trash bag and putting them in the fridge works well. Keeping them in this manner for a few days will give them a nice break from makeup and allow them to smell nice again. This is also a great way to store your brushes if they are for a special occasion, such as a wedding, shower or birthday party. Placing a special sachet of perfume near the handles will also work well.

How to dry makeup brushes is something that has been discussed for a very long time.

You will find many ways that you can do it, depending upon how much use you have given the brushes. The main key is to make sure that you do not store them in a damp area where bacteria can grow. Once you have given your makeup brushes a rest, you can start using them again and see the amazing difference that they will make.
