Want a healthy complexion? Clean your makeup brushes

Your makeup applicators could be breeding grounds for bacteria, which can led to acne, clogged pores, and impurities on your skin. Not so pretty. On January 26, health and beauty blog Blisstree offered a few tips on keeping your makeup brushes fresh and tidy.

Want a healthy complexion? Clean your makeup brushes

Blisstree's tips for cleaning brushes:



1. Shampoo or facial cleaner: Since most makeup brushes are made of real hair, dabbing some shampoo into the palm of your hand and swirling the brush around in it under warm water should do the trick. Facial cleaners work well too.

2. Vinegar and water: To kill bacteria on your brushes, make a solution of one part vinegar and two parts water. Dip the brush into the vinegar solution and rinse in clean warm water.

3. Makeup brush cleaners: You can opt to purchase a specialized makeup brush cleaner, with some options to spray on and wipe off. Prices range from around 10 to 25. Sephora sells one for around $14/ 11, as do Clinique and Bare Escentuals.
