Weekly deep cleaning ‘important for makeup brushes’

by admin on January 26, 2012

Ladies undertaking makeup artistry courses may want to ensure they follow advice on cleaning beauty tools regularly.

In an article for the Boston Globe, writer Rachel Raczka explained how brushes can become clogged with products and natural oils from the skin, which may lead to bacteria causing a spot outbreak.

She recommended subjecting the most commonly used utensils to a weekly deep clean, while “swiping a brush across a makeup remover cloth” after use should help keep bristles dirt-free.

In an interview with KABC-TV Los Angeles, dermatologist Dr Shirley Chi also recently spoke of how cosmetics can easily spread bacteria and should be washed frequently with shampoo.

Another tip from Ms Raczka was to dispose of products once they reach their expiration date, with mascara and eyeliner said to be only
designed to last for three months. Cream shadows can be kept for a year, while foundation should be replaced every six months, it was claimed.

Makeup brushes should undergo weekly deep cleaning, it has been claimed.
