Bullying in makeup

Hi everyone!

Bullying is not a new issue, but these days with the rise of social networks it becomes increasingly evident and the makeup area doesn’t escape from it. While everyone is entitled to give their opinion, behind the keyboard some people become judges and vent their anger against the victim of the moment, sometimes just to annoy and sometimes because they think genuinely that destroying others can increase their worth.

No matter the reasons, the fact is that today we all face the ill-intentioned criticism and we must learn how to deal with it ... or to fight it.

Cleaning brushes

A dirty brush involves the presence of germs that can harm the health of your skin, so it’s recommended to do a deep clean at least every 15 days (or weekly depending on usage)... If you want to know some tricks to keep the brushes clean read the post "How to clean makeup brushes"

For the hygiene of the brushes you should consider if they are for personal or professional use, but in both cases it’s important to take into account:

• Do a deep clean every week or 15 days.
• Keep them stored in a dry and dust-free place.
• Sanitize brushes between customers with a fast drying product.
• Avoid using brushes that have product buildup.
