FOOD STORAGE CONTAINERS!

Bye-bye Spaghetti! Lol, JK.

I discovered (opens during the pandemic, and it’s a safe and sanitary way to store my brushes, as it keeps dust and other airborne germs at bay, and I feel more comfortable reaching for them to apply my makeup.

You can find food storage aria-label=”Simple at your local supermarket, and they can also be found on Amazon.

Just an added note to mention the frequency and products I use to clean my brushes:

WEEKLY: Foundation/Concealer; Eyeliner;Eyelash Curler; Makeup Sponge.
EVERY 2 WEEKS: Eyeshadow; Powder; Blush; Bronzer; Highlight; Brow.
MONTHLY: Deep Clean ALL Brushes.

Products I use:

1. Parian Spirit Brush Cleanser – Firstly, I apply (opens onto a kitchen towel, then swirl the brush in it. This removes buildup.
2. Simple Anti-Bacterial Hand Soap – Secondly, I wash brush with (opens and lukewarm water. This removes any extra dirt and debris.
3. Dettol Anti-Bacterial Spray – Thirdly, I spray the brush, then lay it on a clean towel to dry. This sanitises the bristles and handle.
4. Amazon Food Storage Container – Lastly, once dry, I place brush into (opens, close and store away for future use.

Here’s an Instagram Reel of me showing the steps!
