Does anybody have any tips on making/helping the brushes dry faster once you are done cleaning them?? I would really appreciate them(:

You can wrap elastics around the ends and pin them to anything (shower rod, towel rack, etc) so the bristles are facing down, so the water drips off downwards and cannot stay in the bristles for long. it won't be much faster but it'll be a bit quicker.

I started cleaning my brushes with my beauty blender solid cleaner and I feel like they are drying a little faster, and it's so much faster than when I was using baby shampoo!

Thanks girls (: I was was wondering what if once they're hanging that way using low heat blow dryer??

I wouldn't use a blow dryer, the bristles are usually glued in at the edge and if you get it to hot it will start to melt. That's why you shouldn't wash paint or makeup brushes in too warm of water. I've had paint brushes fall apart because I washed them in hot water too long.
It usually only takes a full day for mine to dry, so I do my makeup for that day (even if I'm not doing anything, just in case) and I wash them all in the morning. By the time I do my makeup the next morning they're usually all dry.

Thank you so much alyx(: that's very useful! I always carry my make up everywhere I go which is why I'm making a big fuzz but I guess if I do what you say I'll be okay >_<
