How to correctly wash your makeup brushes

Our makeup brushes come in contact with dirt in the atmosphere, and a lot of bacteria, not to mention the residue of makeup powder on the brush from daily makeup use, there is a proper way to clean your brushes removing 99.9% of bacteria and still maintaning and hydrating the brush.
This process of brush cleaning is well known and used by many painters as well as makeup appliers around the world.
You will need:
A dirty makeup brush
Kitchen detergent
Olive oil
Bowl

Mix one part olive oil and one part kitchen detergent into a bowl (enough to cover your brush in the mixture). Then swish the mixture onto the brush and wipe back and fourth on the plate or on your hand. Rinse after 5 minutes in water and leave to dry. They will look fresh and as good as new.
Tips
-Drying your makeup brush upside down will help all the water and dirt come out of the brush as the gravity allows it to drip down.
-Buying a brush guard will help prevent bacteria being trapped into the hairs of the brush for further use.
-Do not rinse the brush in hot water though could and warm are fine.

Good luck with your good-as-new makeup brushes!
