How to Clean a Makeup Sponge or Beautyblender
One of the biggest complaints of women who use makeup sponges or beautyblender is how to clean that sponge. So do you know how to clean your makeup sponge?
Although new products are constantly coming out for applying skin products, the favorite for applying liquid foundations is still makeup sponges. So how is the make-up sponge cleaned after all the foundation it has taken in? Make-up sponges have a structure suitable for absorbing products due to their texture and structure. Although it is very easy to clean products from brushes, cleaning a make-up sponge can be troublesome. Here’s what you need to do to clean your makeup sponge more easily:
- First, dip your beauty blender or makeup sponge into a glass of warm water and let it swell for a while.
- Then, mix a little baby shampoo the size of a hazelnut with a little olive oil, start from the places where your makeup sponge is heavily dirty, apply your sponge to this mixture and foam.
- As you knead the makeup sponge, you will see that the product in it vomits out. You can clean your hand thoroughly by rubbing it on the joints.
- Rinse under water and repeat this process several times to make sure it is thoroughly cleansed.
- When it is completely cleaned, let it dry in contact with air. (If you put it indoors, there is a possibility of mold.)
After this process, you can continue to use your makeup sponge or beautyblender with peace of mind.
