What is the best way to wash a makeup blender?

Cleaning your makeup blender is important for a fresh, even makeup look and a hygienic routine.

With these simple steps, you can keep your blender clean and in top condition. 

1. Wet your makeup blender completely

  • Hold the blender under warm water.
  • Let it soak up water completely.
  • This helps loosen makeup more quickly.

2. Use a mild cleanser

  • Use a brush soap.
  • Apply the soap directly to the blender.
  • Avoid harsh products that can damage the material.

3. Gently squeeze the blender clean

  • Gently massage the makeup blender.
  • Squeeze out the dirt, but never wring it.
  • This prevents tears and helps it retain its shape.

4. Rinse until the water runs clear

  • Rinse again under warm water.
  • Squeeze it until no more color comes out.
  • A clean blender feels light and supple.

5. Repeat for stubborn residue

  • Do you use a lot of long-wear or waterproof products?
  • Then a second wash is perfectly normal.

6. Let your makeup blender dry thoroughly

  • Place it on a towel.
  • Let it dry in an open space.
  • Never store it while damp — this prevents bacterial growth.

Extra tips

  • Clean your makeup blender 1–2 times a week.
  • Replace it as soon as it tears or starts to smell strange.
  • A mild cleanser extends its lifespan.
