Using this brush cleaner is easy. First, wet your brush under lukewarm water. Then, put a small amount of the cleaner on your palm or a cleaning pad. Gently swirl the brush in the cleaner until the color starts to come out. Rinse the brush thoroughly under running water until the water runs clear. Shake off the excess water and reshape the brush. Let it dry flat or hanging with the bristles down. Make sure to keep the cleaner away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. For best results, clean your brushes regularly, at least once a week if you use them often.
