    Never thought of putting them in a bol, good idea. I use my Dawn liquid dishes and it’s very good for the greasy brushes. For my sponges I put them, wet, in my washing machine.

    I thankfully got into the habit of washing my makeup brushes after every use. The dense foundation brushes are definitely the hardest to do. I haven’t thought to use oil for breaking down the toughest problem brushes. Good tip! The thought of washing a big batch like this is daunting. Since I wear lots of cream products, I’ve just never felt that it’s right to reuse a dirty brush.

    I use a bar of soap to clean my brushes, but also have the EcoTools brush cleaner. I clean my eye brushes after every use, and foundation ones maybe after two uses, and brushes used for blush, bronzer and highlighter after a week. I try to spend a few minutes a day cleaning brushes, otherwise they pile up and I will run out. While I don't use it to clean brushes, I just picked up the Dr. Bronner's castile soap in Almond scent and I am obsessed! I am going to pick up the unscented too and use it to create my own liquid hand soaps. Good video!

    You never should let water near the metal hardware as it will loosen up the glue or pull on the hair or bristles they will fall apart by doing it your way. To dry to put them on a towel and than hang them upside down on a brush holder. I would NEVER use any cleaner that had oils or fragrance as you could contaminate your makeup product. I used to work on movie sets and watched the makeup artists.
