DIY Makeup Brush Cleaner Spray

We all know the importance of cleaning our makeup brushes regularly. Bacteria can grow on used brushes, and since we touch our faces daily with them, it's important to prevent blemishes from popping up. While I deep clean my brushes every one to two weeks(depending on frequency of use), I like to use a spray cleanser for daily in between use. Recently, when I ran out of my spray brush cleaner, I thought, there must be a way to DIY this. After some time of Pinterest research, I thought I could combine and modify a few of these recipes out there to make something that works for me.
Tried and tested, here's my go to for this DIY.

Ingredients:
1/4 cup Witch hazel
1 tsp Castille soap
1/2 cup Distilled Water (or Boiled water)
1/2 tsp Coconut Oil or olive oil
Empty Spray Bottle

Combine all of these ingredients together and place into your empty spray bottle.

How to use:
1. Shake the ingredients in the bottle
2. Place your dirty brush on a small hand towel you don't mind getting dirty.
3. Spray your dirty brushes with your mixture where the bristles are on the towel.
4. Rub the brush on the towel in a circular motion and you will see the product come right off your brush.
5. Lay flat to dry on the towel.
** One additional step I started doing this year was disinfecting the handles of my brushes. Take a paper towel and dab with a bit of rubbing alcohol and wipe the handles of your brushes clean. You'll be amazing to see how much makeup and dirt come off.

  

Happy Cleaning!
