Insider’s Caroline Aghajanian is using her time at home to finally clean her makeup brushes. She typically cleans her brushes with her face wash and a makeup-brush-cleaning mat, but she will test out three other popular methods for alternative options.
The first method is mixing extra-virgin olive oil with dish soap, like Dawn or Palmolive. The extra-virgin olive oil can help break down makeup and can also moisturize the bristles so the brushes don’t dry out.
The second method is with hot water, white vinegar, and dish soap mixed together into a cup. The white vinegar will help disinfect the makeup brushes.
The third method is washing brushes with castile soap, like Dr. Bronner’s castile soap, and disinfecting with apple cider vinegar afterwards. All of these methods will leave makeup brushes clean and ready for application.

So I guess with all the comments the 2nd method make sure the water is really low so the handle doesn’t get submerged. for smaller brushes may have to just use the 1st method
This will get water into the handle 😢
I wash all of mine in the washing machine, using the wall and silk cycle without spinning. Never disappoints.
The first method was really great for cleaning stained and dirty brushes but im pretty sure the dish soap residue stayed in my sponge so it was really hard to take the soap residue off. It hink if some other soap that is safe for your face (like face wash or bar soap) was used it could have been easily rinsed off/ fine if it goes on your face.
First method works great and is pretty fast! I just used it after watching the video and finished washing them much faster than before with my previous method!
