Brush cleaning

I use baby shampoo for powder product brushes, and micellar water for oily product brushes (foundation, concealer, lipstick, etc.). The Micellar cuts the cleaning time in half! I also have one of those silicone brush cleaning pads that suction onto the basin. Using the cleaning pad means I use less soap and rinsing brushes is also easier (its just a cheap one off AliExpress).
Just another tip, with regards to washing and drying brushes ... When washing try not to get the ferrule (metal part) wet, this is where the glue is and water will soften the glue, causing the brush to shed bristles. Use warm water, not hot (for the same glue softening reason).
When drying, I like to lay my brushes flat on a towel draped over a lever arch file. The sloped angle of the file means that I can keep the handle higher than the bristles while they're drying. This stops water from running down the bristles and into the ferrule (metal part) and stops the glue from being softened. No one wants bristle fallout.

I use a Real Techniques Liquid brush cleaner, and a silicone textured pad, the pad I got from Ali express for maybe $2 incl postage - probably one of the only beauty products I'd risk buying from there!). I like the RT liquid , although I do find sometimes, my powder brush especially, needs cleaning 2-3 times. I do my best to only wet the brush6, not the handle or metal piece. I usually lay mine flat in a container and put them outside in the sun for an hour or two to help dry them
im terrible at washing my brushes, I don't do it nearly as much as I should. I haven't been wearing makeup often this year, but when I return to work soon, I will definitely make the effort to keep them clean.

I have tested out regular shampoo and body wash, but it didn't reacted well on my skin when I used the brushes again. I tried Ecostore Baby Shampoo in the past and it worked well too, it kept the brushes clean. I currently use Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Gel and I love it, as the brushes texture remains soft.
