Until a few weeks ago, all my makeup brushes have been cleaned or washed with MAC Brush Cleanser, washed with shampoo or liquid soap. I tried isopropyl alcohol, I cleaned it several times and my brushes look like new and have not encountered any problem (which also lost hairs brushes washed, they lost by this method, too). I poured alcohol in a container, I brush past the alcohol (the brushes I insisted a little dirty and have “swallowed” something more than alcohol) and wiped it in a cotton towel. The trick is to move quickly when you remove the alcohol evaporates and does not otherwise have time to clean them well and have to repeat the step.
Advantages:
- Clean brushes immediately and dries in one minute (you can use immediately without any problem)
- Alcohol destroy any microbe
- Method is very cheap
- A white brush to see again
Disadvantages:
- Alcohol smell (so I recommend an open window)
- Requires some attention method (alcohol might jump on you or the area where clean)

I am not sure where you are getting your information, but good topic. I needs to spend some time learning much more or understanding more. Thanks for fantastic info I was looking for this information for my mission.
Very good ideas to keep the writing moving along. I’ve definitely been to the “bubble bath and some wine” stage. Thanks for fueling my idea bank with some amazing ideas.
