    1) she is not wasting water
    2) she pronounced Zote correctly
    3) super efficient
    4) also, she DID NOT waste water
    Great vid!!

    Instead of a knife. I used my cheese grater to get small pieces of the zote soap. Just a helpful tip guys! 😊

    Shaving the Zote bar down and putting it into a jar was pure genius!

    amazing way to clean brushes I have tried so many ways to clean and this way how you clean your brushes made them "brand new" like you said I have one brush that is stubborn but over all great. thank you. love your channel

    Zote is honestly the best for cleaning brushes and blenders! I have sensitive skin and I have never had an issue when using it!

    I use Zote as well for the cleaning of my brushes & sponges. Great idea placing it into a small container, will try doing it too.

    Ahhhh! This is soooo great!!!! I will be doing this tomorrow! I've been cleaning my brushes with the Zote bar ever since I saw your other video of how you clean your brushes!!!

  • @nuyorkina1
    @nuyorkina1 8 років тому +1

    Thanks for the Zote tip. I will have to try that since I have been using the beauty blender solid or the philosophy cleanser. I used to do the hand method. After using the sigma glove I realized how much better it cleans cream products. It also cut down cleaning time cause you can wash many brushes at a time.

  • @kristiekat2179
    @kristiekat2179 8 років тому +2

    I use a silicone cupcake mold because it's got grooves that really get the brushes clean.

  • @desireevaltierra1891
    @desireevaltierra1891 8 років тому

    I do mind the same way with the zote bar but instead of using my hand I've been using the Real Techniques cleaner palm thing like the sigma one which makes a pretty significant difference #1 when I'm done my hand is in all wrinkly and soggy #2 it gets deep in there with those ridges and grooves Batman and obviously don't have so it helps deep clean a little bit better. believe it or not I washed a brush after using my hands and then using the Real Techniques thing and there was still makeup in there!! but you're right it is very hard to use the bar so I'm definitely putting my hands in a jar like you thank you so much because I do mind once a week as well and the zote bar is the ONLY thing that gets everything out of my BB n sponges I've tried everything

    at the dollar tree you can find silicone pot holders that have a honeycomb ridges on one side I swirl my brushes on that damn near the same thing as those expensive gloves... and it's $1 can't beat that... I use olive oil and dish soap 50-50 and it conditions and cleans amazing...
