Here's something to encourage everyone to clean their brushes all the time. I have seen a used makeup brush under a microscope, and... just clean your brushes. LOL
Just wanted to share a new product called the Brush Guard. Ideal for MUAs or pretty much anyone who wants to prolong the life of their brushes and keeping the shape of your brush bristles. This video demonstrate how to use and the benefit I like from it. EnJoy!

Barack Obama discusses the same old Washington game of slinging mud at your opponents and ignoring real issues. This comes a day after he and Hillary Clinton debated in Pennsylvania, where it took 45 minutes of answering non-issue questions before they talked about anything of importance.

MOBSTERS:
The girls today in society
Go for classical poetry,
So to win their hearts one must quote with ease
Aeschylus and Euripides.
But the poet of them all
Who will start 'em simply ravin'
Is the poet people call
The bard of Stratford-on-Avon.
Brush up your Shakespeare,
Start quoting him now.
Brush up your Shakespeare
And the women you will wow.
Just declaim a few lines from "Othella"
And they think you're a heckuva fella.
If your blonde won't respond when you flatter 'er
Tell her what Tony told Cleopaterer,
And if still, to be shocked, she pretends well,
Just remind her that "All's Well That Ends Well."
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kowtow.
Brush up your Shakespeare,
Start quoting him now.
Brush up your Shakespeare
And the women you will wow.
If your goil is a Washington Heights dream
Treat the kid to "A Midsummer Night Dream."
If she fights when her clothes you are mussing,
What are clothes? "Much Ado About Nussing."
If she says your behavior is heinous
Kick her right in the "Coriolanus."
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kowtow,
And they'll all kowtow,
And they'll all kowtow.
Brush up your Shakespeare,
Start quoting him now.
Brush up your Shakespeare
And the women you will wow.
Brush up your Shakespeare
And they'll all kowtow.
Some stuff I forgot to mention:
Brush cleanser has the benefit of cleaning your brushes with a greatly reduced drying time because it contains alcohol. An eye brush, for example, cleaned with brush cleanser will be dry after about 3 minutes or so, whereas the drying time when washing with shampoo and water can vary - anywhere between 5 to 15 minutes, and even overnight for larger more dense brushes like kabukis.
Foundation brushes used for liquid or cream foundation should be cleaned after every use because dried up foundation will "gunk up" the bristles, and you don't want that transferred back to your face on the next application. You can either spritz with brush cleanser and wipe the head back and forth on a tissue or rag, or wash with baby shampoo and dry overnight. Make sure to really wash your foundation and concealer brushes at least once a week to deep clean if you do use brush cleanser on them otherwise.
If I wash my brushes with shampoo and water, I like to do this in the evening, so that they will be dry and ready to use again the next day. Especially dense brushes like paddle face brushes or kabukis can take a long time to dry, so make sure to calculate enough drying time if you need to use it again the following morning.
