How to Clean Makeup Brushes Feat. the Beauty Blender Cleanser Solid

Hi everyone - I hope you enjoy this video showing you how to clean your makeup brushes and your Beauty Blender sponge using the Beauty Blender solid cleanser.

As I mentioned in the video, I have found a great dupe for this by Sephora Collection - the "Dry Clean: Solid Brush Cleaner".  The two solid cleansers are pretty much exactly the same in my opinion, except the Sephora Collection one is $2 cheaper at $14 vs. $16 for the Beauty Blender Solid.

I find that using a solid cleanser is the easiest way to clean my makeup brushes. Once they are clean, I lay them out to dry and they are all set and ready to use by the next morning. There is no scent to either of these products, my skin has never been irritated them, and I have never found any residue on my brushes. I usually do this routine every 1-2 weeks depending on how dirty my brushes are.

The Beauty Blender

Throw out your old triangle makeup sponge and get with the times, dolls! You wouldn't think that something so simple as a foundation sponge makeup applicator could make such a difference in your beauty routine! But the Beauty Blender, a fabulous new innovation, is that one gem missing in your makeup box.

The Beauty Blender is the first ergonomically designed non-disposable sponge applicator that allows you to flawlessly apply your makeup. The unique shape allows for perfect professional application of your liquid foundation; it spreads your foundation evenly with no streaks or caking. 

Unlike traditional sponges, the soft texture and elliptical shape of the Beauty Blender allows foundation to blend into skin with a natural finish and no streaks. Beauty Blender is renowned in the beauty world and is even an Allure Best of Beauty Award Winner!

When saturated with water, the sponge will expand to twice its size, making it easy to cover your whole face and still get into all the nooks and crannies. Using the sponge damp prevents it from absorbing excess foundation, so you won’t be wasting any makeup. Saturate your blender with water and squeeze out excess. Pick up a small amount of foundation with the blender and apply to your skin with a tapping motion to distribute and blend. Use the pointed end of the sponge to get into small areas near your nose and eyes. 

Your sponge can be cleaned with the available Blender Cleanser—making it super eco-friendly. It comes with an instructional pamphlet so you can quickly master your application technique. Beauty Blender is non-latex and hypoallergenic.


The Beauty Blender is available at Sephora.
Retail Price: One sponge for $20 and two for $26
