How should I clean the eyeliner brush?

Because eyeliner brushes are mostly cream products, they are more difficult to clean than eyeshadow brushes, blush brushes, and powder brushes, which use powder products. And if we don’t clean will affect the direction of the bristles and hair quality, so better if we can clean the brushes after use. Cleaning methods are mainly divided into the following two kinds.

Professional version

What you need to prepare is a makeup brush cleaner, generally speaking, well-known beauty brands will launch makeup brush cleaners with eye makeup products at the same time. The method is to drop the cleaner on a makeup sponge and brush the brush back and forth repeatedly until the color is not brushed. It is important to note that the cleaner does not require a second rinse with water, so after cleaning, just pinch the bristles with a clean paper towel to control the moisture and put it away.

Popular version

The method is the same. But considering that most people will not buy quality makeup brushes but ordinary brushes, so they will not spend money to buy cleaning agents, then provide an alternative to cleaning agents, people who draw eye makeup should have. That is eye makeup remover oil/liquid. Follow the steps above to clean, and finally rinse well with water. Then use a paper towel to control the water and put it in a dark and ventilated place to dry.

There are several shapes of eyeliner brushes available for purchase, and you can choose a different eyeliner brush according to your different needs in the makeup process. They are mainly divided into the following categories.

Fine eyeliner brush

This type of eyeliner brush is especially common. The reason why this brush is so popular is that it is the most versatile and can be used to draw very fine lines, and it is also very convenient for drawing inner eyeliner. After using other eyeliner brushes to draw the basic eyeliner, you usually use a fine eyeliner brush to finish off your eyeliner. Most people also like Using this brush when dabbing eyeliner colors. However, there are two types of people that I don’t think this brush is suitable for: one is new to makeup, because it is not stable enough to draw lines. The second category is lazy people because this brush needs to be washed after each use, otherwise, it will become triangular after dipping into the eyeliner cream and easily poke pain in the eyes the next day.

Just use this eyeliner brush a little, set the angle after, and the front of the eyeliner connected up. This brush is particularly stable, so it is also very suitable for beginners to use. And you don’t have to wash it after each use, because it is the same shape after the next day, so you can draw eyeliner, as usual,  it is suitable for lazy people. But the downside is that the lines that come out are not too fine.

Brush eyeliner brush

This eyeliner brush is suitable for dabbing eyeliner liquid. However the makeup hand has to be very steady, otherwise, the lines will not come out smoothly. No matter what kind of eyeliner brush, after you dip the eyeliner product, you must smooth it in your hand before putting it on your eyes, otherwise some clumps will make the eyeliner smudge. After drawing the eyeliner, it is recommended that you use a mascara brush to brush away the eyeliner products on the eyelashes, or is also easy to stain the lower eyelids and become panda eyes.
