Makeup Brush Dryer, Mouchelion Makeup Brush Drying Rack with 26 Holes Silicon Makeup Brush Cleaning Gloves Cosmetic Brush Tree Tower, Black

With doing my makeup everyday, my brushes are getting incredibly dirty in a very quick amount of time.I usually create my own brush soap with a small dab of antibacterial dish soap, and one part extra virgin olive oil. When mixing them together (gently) with your brush, you should see the makeup start to come off. Then transfer the brush to the purple glove and gently move it around to clean the bristles. You can run some water over this to ensure that the glove doesn't get overly soapy and your brushes get rinsed out.I really like this set, it is easy to use and it makes something that I find very frustrating into abbot so daunting task.The brush holder is super cool because it allows you to hang your brushes upside down to dry, which will keep the bristles in much better condition.

Just as described.

These work great together to keep my brushes clean. You have to peel the brown layer off the stand -- which they notified me about by email about a month after I purchased it. I appreciate them telling me, but the notice came a bit late. I had already read other reviews so I was aware of the issue, but some people have said they thought the drying stand was made from cardboard when they first saw it. It does take some effort to get that brown layer off -- I ended up soaking mine in water for awhile to make it easier. Anyway, once that is peeled off, it's easy to assemble the pieces to make the stand. The legs fit nice and tight into the top piece so you can pick the entire thing up and it won't come apart. That is convenient because once my brushes are all washed, I put them in the stand all at once. You want to be sure that you always dry your brushes upside down so that water doesn't get in the ferule part of the brush -- it's difficult for it to evaporate once it gets in there and can end up harboring bacteria and mildew. Once the brushes are in the stand, they do dry faster and I find they keep their shape nicely (you should shape them while they are still wet).The glove is great for cleaning the brushes because there are several different areas that work better for different types of brushes. I use the Ecotools shampoo when I'm cleaning my brushes, but if you don't have that, I find a simple baby shampoo works great as well. Something without a lot of harsh ingredients. I used to use the store brand baby shampoo from Whole Foods and it worked really well. Anyway, after cleaning and rinsing your brushes, you can use the area of the glove between the thumb and hand to help squeeze out excess water. I typically wash all my brushes first before shaping them and putting them in the stand. I find it's easier to shape them with my hands so I do it after I take the glove off. Then I put them in the stand all at once so I don't have to keep picking it up. Just makes things faster, which I appreciate because I wash my brushes about once a week. Also, I recommend washing your brushes at your kitchen sink instead of your bathroom sink because the countertop is higher and your back won't hurt when you're done. Maybe that's just me, but washing my brushes in my bathroom sink means I'm kind of bending forward and it just ends up hurting when I'm done.As for drying time, that depends on where you live and how humid it is. I'm in Colorado where it's pretty dry, so if I wash my brushes in the evening and put them in the drying stand, they're typically all dry by morning. I find with the thicker brushes, it helps to dry them off by just gentle swishing them back and forth on a microfiber towel to remove excess moisture. This will definitely help them dry faster if you don't have a ton of time to just let the water evaporate. If I do this with all my brushes, I can use the smaller ones within a couple of hours. And it's so nice to use clean brushes. It makes such a huge difference in how well your makeup goes on.I definitely recommend these products -- the price is great and the stand comes apart so it doesn't take much room to store these. The glove is just as good as the expensive name brand ones so there's no reason to spend $35 when you can get one for this price.

Such a simple product yet so effective! Using this glove has been so helpful in my brush cleaning routine. I used to rub my brushes against my hands which made them pruney and took forever. This glove protects my hands and provides a faster cleanup. Definitely love the stand as well. It looks less fancy than the picture shows, but it's such a great idea and is the perfect way to dry my brushes while still protecting them. I used to lay my wet brushes flat on a towel which isn't a great idea because the water can loosen the glue holding the brush hairs together. Using this stand allows for the brushes to hang upside down so all the hairs dry and no water touches the glue. Would definitely recommend this product!

The drying board took about 30 minutes to put together. Getting the brown paper off took a long time. I ended up breaking several nails trying to lift it up enough so that I could peel it. The paper itself took about 15 minutes total to take off. Then assembling didn't go well. The slots are not actually quite the right size. I got the larger piece in find, but when I was trying to get the smaller one into the slot fully the whole leg of the piece broke off. I have now attempted to super glue it back together, so we'll see how it works. I think I should be able to use it 3-legged, but it shouldn't be this difficult to set up. I've included pictures of the process - they may not be in order.

UPDATE: i'm giving 2 stars just for the holder, the glove is terrible. Not only a design thing. it has an almost invisible glue film/residue that leaves all the brushes with sticky finish.----this was a one tough to evaluate. But at the end, looking at the price I'm going for 4 stars :)The glove: to be honest, it's nothing special. I own the sigma one, and it's way better. My complaint is not the quality itself, my complain is because the design couldn't be worse: the sigma one has 2 cleaning textures -so this one -but, this one has just one thumb, so it's not an easy-to-turn transition at all. It means that no matter if you are right/left handed, you end up using the same surface, it's more convenient and comfortable.. yes it's better than using your hand but.the dryer: i love it. hahah sound silly but it's sooo convenient. It's cheap? yes. It's not nice and colorful, no. So? It does the job really good, because the alternative is starting playing with angles, curves, and towels, using a lot of space, or using hair ties (if I had enough) to fasten brushes to a bar, or any other crazy experiment :) So in my opinion the dryer is the best thing because its super convenient!

The glove help cleaning brushes really good with soap. The dryer seem to be good idea at first when using it feel inconvenient somehow.
