| How to care for your brushes |
The following will help you keep your brushes in top condition:
Daily care
|
| Dust off the brush with your hand balled loosely into a fist. |
Finishing brush, powder brush, and blush brush
Every time you use one, dust off the excess powder. If powder still remains, wipe it gently with tissue.
Lip brush, shadow brush
Wipe gently with tissue. If you wipe it every time, you'll seldom need to wash it.
Cleaning with powder
|
| Hold the handle and shut the mouth of the bag tightly. |
If liquid foundation or lipstick gets on a face brush or a blush brush, clean it with corn starch. Put the brush and corn starch in a plastic bag. Then shake the bag until the brush head is sufficiently coated with corn starch. Take out the brush from the bag and dust the powder off the brush. Replace the corn starch in the bag, and repeat the process until the oily substances are removed with the powder. Corn starch should be pure without sugars or other ingredients.
Cleaning with warm water
1. When your brush smells or contains beads of makeup, wash it with warm water.
|
| You can dip up to the ferrule. |
|
| You can also wash it with fragrance-free soap. Lather by combing in one direction with your fingers.. |
Dissolve washing powder for wool in warm water and soak the head of brush up to the ferrule. Wash the head by gently stroking toward the tip with your fingers, and rinse it thoroughly.
*Do not wash brush in a cleaner containing alcoholic solvent, except when it¤fs necessary to dry quickly for commercial use. The alcoholic solvent harms both natural and synthetic hair. Fabric softener can make it difficult for a brush to hold powder.

2. Combing
|
| If you start combing from the bottom of the head right away, the hair will tear. |
Begin combing little by little from the tip of the brush, combing in the direction from the root to the tip. Then turn brush over and comb the other side.

3. Drying
|
| When you arrange the shape of a makeup brush, imagine a symmetrical bud. |
Squeeze the brush with a towel, arrange the shape with your fingers, and dry it in the shade.
Never use a dryer or put it in direct sunlight.

How to store brushes
|
| We recommend keeping it in its own case. |
Stand them in a cup if you use them every day. If you do not use them for a while, keep them in the plastic bag given at the time of purchase and lay them down.
Keep them in a dry place in order to prevent molding.

When to replace brushes
Makeup brushes are consumable goods so it is time to buy a new one when the brush hair is worn out. When your brush cannot hold enough powder or its texture deteriorates, it is time to change the brush. They generally last around three to five years. If you do not use a used makeup brush for a long time, the hair might get worse. Using a brush every day is the best way to keep it in good condition.
