DIY Makeup Brush Cleaner

***Hope you enjoy this super easy, cheap, and affective makeup brush cleaner that you can make in 2 minutes at home as much as I do! -Maddie***

Items Needed

•water (1 cup)

•vinegar (2 tablespoons)

•dish soap (2 pumps)

•microwave safe jar, cup, glass, or bowl. 

•microwave

    

     I used a mason jar, but any cup or bowl that is microwavable should work. First, pour one cup of water into your jar. Put it in the microwave for 1 full minute. Once heated, add 2 pumps or squirts of dish soap and 2 tablespoons of vinegar. Stir all together. 

      Next, take your dirty makeup brush and swirl it around in the solution. Swirl and let it sit for about 20 seconds or longer depending on how dirty the brushes are. 

(I had already cleaned several brushes so you can see how much makeup comes off in the water) 

      

        Once clean, run brush under cold running water. Then, place on a napkin to dry. All done! It's super easy and fast and you don't have to go buy anything at the store (my favorite part). Also, it makes your brushes super soft, and who doesn't like that?!

Facial Skin Care Routine

Hey Guys! Sorry we haven't posted. I have been at camp so it would have been hard to find time to write a blog post.

Today's post is about my (Maddie) skin care routine. It was really hard for me to get in the habit of having one, just out of pure laziness. However, taking care of your skin now will help you in the future. So here's my skin care routine:

MORNING: 

First I take my face wash: 

and wash my face. I really love this product because it can be used as a cleanser or a mask. My biggest struggle is with black heads and oily skin so this is what I found works the best. 

Next, I use toner. I use a toner by neutrogena. 

This toner is very gentle on my skin. And does not smell bad at all. (One of my pet peeves!)  

The last thing I do before makeup (if I choose to wear any that day) is to moisturize my skin. (I use a different moisturizer in the morning than in the evening.) 

This moisturizer is fragrance and alcohol free and is for sensitive skin. I love this product so much because it is not greasy and doesn't leave any residue. However, it is still very moisturizing and hydrating.

EVENING: 

First I remove any makeup from my face: 

I use just generic makeup wipes to remove makeup. I normally don't wear a lot of makeup (if any) so a heavy duty remover is not needed.

Next, I wash my face with the same cleanser I use in the morning.

I also use the same toner. Afterwards, I use this moisturizer: 

This is by Mary Kay and is for oily skin. I put a VERY THICK layer of this on my face so that in the morning my face will feel extra hydrated and moisturized.
