So I'm going to sound ridiculous..but I have never cleaned my makeup brushes. Ever. I've recently gotten a bad case of acne and I'm thinking it may be because of all the oil and built up makeup on my brushes. My problem is I have no idea how to clean them or what to use. Advice?

I use Baby shampoo, it cleans, disinfects, and moisturizes.

Baby shampoo, look up some videos for a more detailed description on how to clean them. Its good to clean them once a week but.most people don't do that, I think I'm the only one that OCD about clean brushes.

Use olive oil and dish soap together. It's cleans but also conditions the brushes!

I use baby shampoo weekly and sephora daily brush cleaner spray everyday. I highly recommend the sephora brush cleaners because it's a disinfectant and rather inexpensive.

I've been using this homemade thing for 2 years now: olive oil, detergent and a little bit of water. The detergent washed and the olive oil moistruizes. Apply hair conditioner to your brushes afterward.

I *sob* ruined my favorite brush by washing it incorrectly. A friend went to the brush makes in japan (She basically studies them!) and came up with the best!! A French soap that smells like Heaven, fast, cleans thoroughly and gently and doesn't leave residue. I found a bar at the heal food store for 6$! Good luck:) Here's the video: http://youtu.be/0_dxejcdKP4
