The best method is to use our Brush Cleaning Pad with Foaming Brush Cleanser, which thoroughly cleans the fibres. It also is formulated so that dry time is only a few minutes, unlike other brands of cleansers that can "drown" a brush. To use, dispense a small dollop of the foam onto the Cleaning Pad surface, then dip the tips of the brush into the foam and proceed to move the tips back and forth across the clean surface of the microfibre cloth until all makeup debris is removed from the brush tips, and any foam residue is thoroughly removed from the brush fibre bundle.
