I clean my lip brushes along with my other makeup brushes. I do a daily (or every other day) cleaning with my e.l.f. daily brush cleaner and then about once a month ( i know I should do it more) I do a deep clean using 2 parts dish soap 1 part extra virgin olive oil and then i mix the brush in it and keep on rinsing until the water is clean.
hope this helped! :)
Dr. Bronners soap is amazing at cleaning lip brushes...all your brushes really. I was amazed that the soap dissolved all the lipstick...clean your brushes often and they will last forever.
I clean all my brushes every three to four weeks. like the soap and water clean, but I use baby wipes on them everyday after using them. It cuts down on how filthy they get and you don't have to do super aggressive deep cleanings on them that might damage the bristles.
