Cleaning is important when it comes to protecting your investment. Knowing the proper way will help your brushes last and save money by not having to replace them as often. There are several options when it comes to this, use the steps below according to your needs.

Heavy Duty Cleaning:
Take a paper towel and fold into fours and pour EVOO on it
until moist. Take the brush and swirl the bristles around in a circular motion on
the towel, when it gets dirty flip it over, add more and continue. Rinse bristles in lukewarm water (only
bristles because water will rust brush).Wet a sponge with warm water and add
baby shampoo to it. Suds it up, gently swirl bristles around several times and rinse
with lukewarm water. If brush still has traces of makeup spray bristles a
couple times with brush cleaner. Take an unused paper towel, fold it in half and
swirl brush around. Wipe off from base to tip, lay flat to dry on a hand towel
with bristles hanging off (allows bristles to dry better and keep their shape).
