The Sunday Post #2 – Makeup Brush Washing

 

To me Sundays are all about tidying up, and getting prepared for the next week ahead. So every Sunday I have a list of things I need to get done, one of which is wash my make up brushes. I try to get into a good beauty habit of washing my brushes every Sunday, but sometimes in the past I’ve got a little lazy. So one of my beauty resolutions of 2014 was to make sure I try my very best to stick to this rule.

It’s fairly obvious that washing your make up brushes is hygienic. Clean make up brushes is key to having a germ free make up application, and there’s really nothing worse than disgusting looking used make up brushes. There’s a few different ways to clean your make up brushes, search on YouTube and thousands of suggestions will come up. But the way I like to clean my brushes is to rinse my brush under warm water, then I take a cleanser (this weeks choice is none other than fairy washing up liquid!), and swirl my brush in it a few times, and then rinse. Fairly simple! I then leave my brushes on a rolled up towel to dry overnight, then come Monday morning I have a beautiful set of clean makeup brushes to play with! As I mentioned earlier I’m trying my very best to stick to this this year, in the past it can go a couple of weeks before I get around to cleaning them up. Oops… Now in a new Sunday tradition, I’m off to clean my makeup brushes!

    Clinique is a brand I’ve grown up and loved. My mum first bought me some of their skincare items when I was going through my bad teenage skin times, and since then I’ve always felt very loyal to the brand. Despite this I’ve never really used much of their makeup products, only trying out a…

    So who’s excited about the Jubilee? I’m suddenly feeling very British and patriotic. It inspired me into doing some Jubilee themed nail art. Sadly I’m working most of the time, at a job where I can’t wear nail polish (I haven’t painted my nails in 2 weeks, sniff), so instead I painted it on my nail…
