Thank you Lauren Curtis for teaching me how to clean my brushes with something as cheap as dish soap! You saved me so much money! Eventually I will get a professional soap cleaner, maybe something like that bar of soap you showed... I thought that was nice. But for right now, Palmolive it is!

[@emrosexghost3]

this is the first make-up cleaning video ive seen that is actually helpful! thank you so much!

[@megbby1]

Guys, water is indeed a renewable resource. The problem is some areas of the world don't have either the knowledge or the equipment to clean and purify it. She isn't really wasting water, it will cycle back. I'm all for helping out the planet and being careful, but there is no need to be rude and hateful to get your point across. Instead of complaining about the water she wasted in this video donate money to charities that help to educate people on how to clean their water or will help to fund the equipment necessary for them to do so. I love that y'all care about the planet, but take that passion and use it in a loving manner instead of fighting on KZbin comments! Also, love ya Lauren! Thanks for the info.

[@mindylcfs]

Very well said.

[@aamybates]

soo so helpful will defo be purchasing the brush guards and sigma glove :)

[@amperez2205]

That is the best video I've seen so far on brush cleansing here on KZbin (and I have seen quite a lot of them). Very instructive! :) xxx

[@emilyjanepaul]

Thanks Lauren! This was so informative and helpful. I've always wanted to know how to wash brushes and this has really helped out :) xo

[@laurencurtisstreams]

music to my ears :D

[@LisaLakers]

I used this method with the hand soap stuff. It worked greatly, thanks Lauren

[@Tayloraurrekoetxea]

This was SO useful, thanks! The only thing I do wonder is how far can you wash the real techniques brushes because they don't seem to have the metal part.

[@katievanorden862]

Omg i have been washing my brushes soo wrong this entire time! This video was sooooo helpful! Thank you so much lauren!

[@alyssa300000]

You have no idea how helpful this video was for me. Thank you so much for this!

[@nattypat7]

Whoa, everyone take a chill pill! Thanks for informative tutorial, Lauren! Gotta get me some brush guards!

[@fashionguru2310]

You always teach me something on every video I've watched! Your my favorite KZbinr by far! (:

[@eleanorphee1149]

This method with the soap and the holder is so good !!!! Xxxxx you have saved my brushes

[@ashleymaupin]

I just washed my brushes and I did so with baby shampoo because I thought that would be nice on the bristles and I was completely wrong. I tried it your way and it saved it! Thank you!

[@JayleePlanz]

Ive been trying to find ways to keep my brushes dry after I clean them and nothing really worked. But I'm so glad I found your video because that had to be the best way to do it. Thank you so much and your videos are funny and very educational lol.

[@Madlad33]

Hello darling. Could you please do a tutorial on how to use your brushes. I just got my first set of brushes and want to learn to use them properly. Thanks and keep up the awesome work. :) xx

[@keniatrejo328]

I love your videos Lauren! Keep up the good work you are amazing and I am now a very big fan of your work! ❤️

[@ceciliaandersson9177]

Hey Lauren! I clean my brushes with IDUN brush cleaner but I spray it on tissue piece first! Your video helps a lot as well ty!

[@Goojie45]

Also,, natural sunlight is the best antibacterial , and dryer. That's how I dry mine,, weather permitting. Smells fresher too

[@georgiagoodman3815]

i'm getting a whole lot of makeup brushes coming through the mail in the next couple of weeks, so this is a great help :D

[@marcela7xD]

Super helpful, out of all the videos I watched on this yours was the best!

[@Jessicaedgington__]

Your real techniques brushes are awesome!! I've tried most of them but I have to buy them online because I live in the UK. Xx Love ur vids!

[@julesbd27]

Great video! I had no idea about brush guards and washing techniques so glad I watched it

[@belmil4894]

Omg this was so helpful. Simple and clear

[@claudialucio3502]

Hi you can also add a little extra virgin olive oil to the palmolive dish soap so it can leave the brushes soft and clean!

[@thatgirlsmashleigh]

AWESOME! This helped me so much! When spot cleaning, do you just spray the product on there and let it set? Or do you have to clean the spray off?

[@PinkGlitter028]

this video was literally so helpful. thank u so much lauren

[@alyshamilner1689]

Good idea of the way cleaning your brushes, I brought some brush guards because I thought I might try them since they seem like a good idea. Thanks for telling me about them :)

[@19asiamuzz]

Love as always! very helpful! Would like to know how you would clean between clients if they'd be back to back? ❤️

[@RowdyHDCowgirl]

Thank you for your fabulous videos. Very informative. I love the brush guards -- PERFECTION! One question how often do you wash your brushes?

[@katyjohns6703]

I was wondering if you could do a video about which brushes you use for what? I've honestly never used brushes and I went to buy some and was completely lost! There are so many different kinds and I know you name the ones you are using during your videos but I'd love to see one focused on just the brushes. Also I'm on a right budget, what recommendations do you have? Thanks and I love your videos.

[@ligzajaya6662]

I really apreciate your advise to clean brushes. But i was wondering if there is another method to do it and save water?

[@laurenspooner8501]

I just deep cleaned my makeup brushes for the first time since I got them and I'm surprised how clean they came out especially my eye brushes as I wear a lot of dark makeup. Surprisingly the only brush I found that started to fray and shed a little bit was my powder brush and I don't have the guards however I did have a wrapper that fitted round it perfectly so hopefully that will keep it all in place thanks for the tips!!!

[@MissAussieDiva]

Another fantastic video, I wash mine pretty much exactly the same. I used to use bowls of water and turn off the tap in between but it NEVER completely cleaned my brushes and I would have to come back and rewash them.

[@kimberlyfalzone3715]

Omg you need the benjabelle brush tree to dry ur brushes!!! Hangs them upside down to dry. Leaning them up against the wall like that can bend ur bristles. Get the brush tree. It's inexpensive and I use it every day whether I'm deep cleaning or spot cleaning.

[@SmileyFacesUnite]

This was lovely and thorough. I liked it :)

[@mollyx5421]

this video was so helpful thankyou! ive never heard of brushguards before WOW no wonder i have destroyed oh so many brushes in the past from not using these brush guards... :)

[@sofianorell8767]

Hey Lauren! So i just have to ask you something about makeup brushes… A lot of my brushes has lost their shape and I just bought brush guards from eBay. I can't afford new brushes so I have to ask… If I wet my brushes and put brush guards on, is there a chance that they will get better?

[@carolineharris4188]

You should save your old brushes to make a collage or spell something out and put it in a huge picture frame to remember how far you've come/how much work you put into all of this:)! You know if you're into that sorta thing lol!

[@annemacdonald457]

I am pretty sure that if you had turned off your water while you were applying the soap and scrubbing the brush on your hand you would have saved like 15 liters of tap water.

[@charlenelim9586]

Yea ikr

[@erisa7513]

You can never waste water... Do you know about water cycle?

[@sabinakhan2363]

Anne Macdonald get laid seriously.

[@NJosephine19]

Erisa Bajrami you absolutely can waste water aha

[@annemacdonald457]

thanks Sabina. getting laid will help. It probably won't help your ignorance tho

[@TheErrastar]

Oh Lauren I swear you've got the cutest laugh. Totes adorbs Hun!

[@fknizzy]

YAYYYY finally!!!! Love you heaps Lauren !!!

[@dani_als1]

Michelle Phan uses those brush guards as well and a good tip she pointed out was that she leaves about 1/2 inches sticking out (if that makes sense) and that way she can actually have the brushes standing up when she puts them in a jar or a glass and that allowes gravity to pull all of the water out that is inside of your brusher, but that little puddle of water in the glass wont reach the brushes because of that 1/2 inch sticking out. I hope i'm making sense, I feel like I'm just rambling nonsense haha :)

[@JennaGlitterbomb]

Dish soap and olive oil also works quite well. The olive oil 'conditions' the bristles and helps protects them :)

[@rosemazzella2790]

Yeah I realize there are people who don't have fresh water but I personally think that Lauren didn't really waste water all that much and great video Lauren I subscribed!

[@Bordena2]

how do you dry fan brushes, do you put bush guards on the too?

[@Georgies1]

Thankyou for such an informative video! Do I need to get one of the gloves which you used?

[@kirahavird9087]

Great video. I also occasionally use micellar water to spot clean. Hasn't damaged any of my brushes.

[@empressah888]

Thank you for the great brush guard tip! Great for makeup bags and travelling:) x

[@dunyadouma7118]

Hey Lauren, don't even listen to the negative people! :D You are great and I love your videos!!!

[@karamcgrath8935]

There's something so satisfying to me to wash my brushes

[@imyourhappydrug]

Also, if you have brush guards you can use those and put your brushes in a glass to drip dry them without them touching the wet surface :)

[@sophiewilliamson9295]

that palmolive soap reminds me of my childhood too! haha! I love it!

[@southpawjlc22]

How do you use the spot cleansers? I use the antibacterial hand soap once a week on my foundation brushes but I would love to try the spot cleansers :)

[@jessicaferreiracoury]

Great video! Nicely filmed, explained, very very nice.

[@ananyalohia]

How do you spot clean? Could you pls make a video on that too! Also, which is your main channel?

[@JustAnotherOne3]

Such a great Tutorial!!! Not only that but you have some similar brushes to me!

[@abigailcollins4800]

Very useful video! How often would you recommend washing your brushes? (Every day brushes)

[@Gregsgrl21]

Glad I seen this. I was doing everything right! I was being extremely careful afraid to squish the brush lol I see now its ok to do so. Thanks

[@Alexandraaaa14]

She really isn't wasting much water. If you've ever cleaned your make up brushes before you'll understand how time consuming and frustrating it is to keep turning the water on and off. As well as this it is important to wash your brushes in the most hygienic way possible - which is straight from the tap.

[@jadeloden153]

Can you wash your brushes too often? For instance if I was doing makeup for a bridal party, would you suggest a spot clean between each girl or a full cleaning to prevent contamination?

[@MrsLilly0807]

i have been subcribe to your channel for the longest and didnot know you had a Vlog channel! Lol only found it because i was searching for . how to clean makeup brushe LOL love you tons!!!!!

[@maiamccalmontparkinson4893]

Just wondering how you would wash kabuki brushes or retractable brushes without damaging the brush because they don't have a visible metal part? :)

[@deaniedwards1790]

I think it's really great so many of you are water conscious ! Yay! But remember guys that this is just a demonstration video ! This is you tube ! This has been cut, edited and shortened . I bet you 1 - lauren takes much longer than this to wash her brushes 2- she actually DOES turn off the tap and 3- is it any of our business if she turns the tap off or not ???

[@kimpossibleX007]

well said....

[@gypsyymariee]

People need to calm down about the water! Calm your farms ladies, put it all in perspective. Lauren, you're the bomb! Much love xxxxx

[@BeautywithMady]

This was helpful thanks Lauren, I love your videos!

[@TheLadyCansu]

Hey lauren. Could you make a video from clean my appartement your favrouite things that you used to clean your appartment

[@mandysocal]

Where did you get those big pink and gold colored brushes????? I've been trying to find them :)

[@alyssaa1581]

the brand of those brushes are "real techniques" you can get them from priceline australia or on iherb.com for much cheaper!

[@Daytonabeachgrl]

Love these tips,! Thanks soooo much! Paid a lot for my sigma brushes don't want the. Ruined.....love ur tips!!!!

[@indiraamilul1210]

YOU ARE SUCH A WISE GIRL WITH A BRILLIANT IDEA..VERY VERY INFORMATIVE!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH LAUREN.. ❤️❤️😘😘😘 NEW SUBBIE HERE

[@taylor7437]

great video! I washed my brushes today, and they aren't synthetic and i don't have any brush guards, they haven't dried completely but the bristles are already going crazy!! Please help!!!!

[@ladyjanawoozword]

For The People Saying She's Wasting Water, Think About Being In A Shower? Washing Cars? Washing Your Pets? Same Thing Pretty Much, But You CAN NEVER WASTE WATER, People Need To Learn About The WATER CYCLE.

[@CDOM707]

Thank you this was very helpful :) it was just hard to concentrate with the water always running lol

[@dianadiana-ef3mr]

Meeee tooo

[@jasmintakhar5939]

I saw you in the airport in April in Austria -Los Angeles ❤️❤️

[@amihallieishii]

very helpful. thank you lauren! :)

[@Gabriela-sp3op]

Lauren, where do you buy your make-up brushes from?..I remember I watched a video of yours couple of weeks ago where you reviewed I think they were 4 or 5 brushes and they had pink ends that came with a cute packaging :)

[@vegepattie5537]

Great video very helpful! How long did you leave the brushes in the brush guard? x

[@victoriahowe5609]

Until the brush is dry

[@kellysiggs3585]

Can you please do a tutorial on how to use the Maybelline New Yolk fit me foundation, concealer and press powder? cheers :)

[@jenniferdavis6115]

Thanks for those tips. I was cleaning my powder brush on my shirt. lol

[@samrydergreene]

I found this super informative:) thanks!

[@averilt]

Lauren, you should also wipe the handles of the brushes with anti-bacterial wipes or they'll accumulate loads of build up of oils and makeup.

[@kellynguy8664]

Love your videos , they're so helpful! xx

[@ashbash-qz3xw]

Awesome tips :) roughly how long would you leave yours to dry? xx

[@ChloeCalico]

you can buy a brush cleaning glove similar to the sigma one on amazon for about $15 total, opposed to $40!

[@ILoveKittens62]

hey girls, just another tip or investment i think is worth making if you want your brushes to face downwards while it's drying is to buy a brush tree! they're usually around $15 and it works really great :)

[@imyourhappydrug]

The DAISO brush cleanser is about $2 and is the most effective brush cleanser I have ever used. I also wear dishwashing/rubber gloves when i wash my brushes because of the texture and to protect my dry skin :)

[@saulfunes3580]

Good video where you buy the soap? And how much it cost? The soap in the box. Thanks Lauren.I love your videos

[@KawaiiValentine]

The soap in the box comes from "The Makeup Store." If you live in the US you won't find the makeup store here. So just look online to see if there's one near you.

[@anissagonzalez5289]

I had no idea you had two channels I love you beautiful! :) xoxo

[@user-su7li6id1q]

Another tip maybe would be, when drying your brushes don't squeeze and pull, just pat it and gently squeeze out the excess water. I feel like it'd pull out the bristles and that happens when I did it that way. :)

[@rachelkacsmark5476]

you should check out the benjabelle brush tree!!! idk if they ship to Australia but check it out cause its great!!

[@BeautyJunki101]

I've never used (or even heard ofnfor that matter) a brush gaurd. I usually form my goat hair brushes while they're still wet and they seem to do alright? I've never had a problem but maybe I need to invest in these so called brush gaurds?

[@phalicia1327]

I actually tied a string across the towel holder in my bathroom with rubber bands strung on, and I wrap the rubber bands around each brush so they hang to dry :)

[@giulianaconnor4024]

hey guys if you don't want to spend a heap of money on the sigma glove, just use a washing up glove! it works just as well and has the little ridges in it and everything, hope this helped:) xx

[@lizzyborden88]

thank you for this video I'm new to using makeup brushes it was very informative plus we have the same real techniques brushes so that was a plus!!

[@Ambar95301]

What brand of brushes are the brushes u have. I love the color and fluffiness? Thank you 😊

[@esmee2993]

Real techniques,u can get them at Walmart

[@ayatchafaqui]

This is a great channel too Lauren! You should do more videos on it! Great video :)

[@ellenrae8567]

Thanks for this - I had no idea how to do it and this really helped!!
