This DIY Spray Will Clean Your Makeup Brushes In No Time

Part of learning how to do your makeup includes washing your makeup brushes too. Yes, I know you probably didn't want to hear that right now, but ladies if you are a makeup fanatic, we can't tell you how significant it is to keep your makeup brushes and tools sanitised and clean.

Just like bad makeup products can irritate and damage your skin, dirty makeup brushes can result in breakouts and other skin related issues.

Even if you don't share your makeup brushes with your sister, mother or friends, it is important to clean them at least once or twice a week to get rid of the build-up dirt and bacteria.

While there are a plethora of makeup brush cleansers available in the market, they may contain chemicals which cannot be washed off completely and can cause skin issues. So, to make the process a bit easier, instant and affordable, we've found a DIY spray cleanser that will reduce your effort of washing the brushes.
