We all use some shape or form of a makeup brush, whether you have an entire collection of brushes from cheek and blusher brushes to liner and shadow brushes, or whether you only have one or two brushes. Everyone owns at least one makeup brush, but have you ever thought about how dirty your makeup brushes can get, and how you should be cleaning them? Do you use them and just pop them back into your makeup bag? Well now is the time to consider that your makeup brushes need cleaning, especially if you’ve never cleaned them before!

Did you know that your makeup brushes will start gathering up oils, makeup, dead skin cells and not to mention all kinds of gross bacteria!? We were sure shocked to find out that this bacteria can grow on your makeup brushes and can you imagine brushing that onto your clean face every single day, causing breakouts, blackhead and clogged pores? Gross!!

Well don’t go throwing all your precious makeup brushes away yet, because we’ve just come across the ultimate makeup brush cleaning kit from The Brush Guard! These ladies have literally thought of every single thing when it comes to cleaning your makeup brushes, from washing them, drying them and helping them keep their original shape, you’ll definitely not be disappointed with the range of products available from The Brush Guard, and of course they were kind enough to give us a taste of everything that they offer, from the complete Brush Guard Cleaning Kit, as well as a variety of the Brush Guard covers that they specialise in, and here’s what we thought…
