How to use blendercleanser solid
Reviews
I LOVE this brush cleaner! I avoided Beautyblender brand for a long time thinking they were over priced, HOWEVER, after having not so good luck cleaning my brushes with other brands I decided to give this a try. I am SO GLAD that I did!! This solid cleanser making cleaning my brushes effortless and my brushes finally FEEL clean after their 'bath'. I still think their sponges are over priced, but this cleanser IS WORTH EVERY PENNY!!
The original solid is ok, but the charcoal pro is better
I have both the original solid and the charcoal pro. The original removes makeup and is gentle for cleaning brushes, but it doesn't remove makeup gunk as throughly as I would like with less "scrubbing". The Beauty Blender Charcoal Pro (its a huge dark solid) works extremely well and I highly recommend that more. I use it to clean my brushes and it just takes the most stubborn of make up off brush and sponge very easily.
I can still use the original (still have some left) but cleaning is a longer task.
It's a good match for our lovely BB
I usually get the smaller sizes of this because it comes in all the sets that I purchase, I have never owned the big size, but I must say that having this helps the process of cleaning the beauty blender. It washes off from the blender quickly without leaving soapy residue in the beauty blender like ordinary shampoos do, and it also helps wash the blender more effectively because you are massaging the blender with this solid soap. I have had instances where i wash the blenders with normal shampoos and it takes me so long to get the blender to become soap free and I end up damaging or "ripping" the blender. I've never ripped or damaged my blender using this to wash it.
Not overhyped!
When I started using beautyblender i was simply washing it with baby shampoo and it took me amost 20 minutes and 3 separate squeezes of baby shampoo bfore i get ny foundation off. But when I got t this...just one wash and less than 5 minutes it’s squeaky clean!! Now im thinking of buying the pro one because its sooo worthit!
Makes cleaning brushes and BB’s (almost) fun!
I couldn’t believe how clean my brushes were after using this cleanser. You can really see the difference in white bristle brushes like my MAC 217’s or other goat hair brushes. My 217’s get so dirty with dark shadows and this cleanser makes them WHITE again! I also have 3 Halo makeup remover puffs (white) that get so dirty and this cleanser makes them completely clean and like new! Because the cleaning process is so thorough and fast, I find myself washing my brushes a lot more often, and it doesn’t appear to do any harm to the brushes or puffs. I discovered this product when I purchased a Beauty Blender cleaning kit that included a pink silicone mat with little bumps, and a trial size each of the cleanser bar and liquid. The liquid is fantastic as well, but I found that it was used up more quickly than the bar (and more expensive). Of course I use this with my BB’s and it takes off ALL of the stains.
Incredibly Overpriced!
As an artist I've cleaned more brushes than I could ever possibly remember as many family members before me have. We've all used the same standard solid cake brush cleaner that removes oils, acrylics, watercolors, makeup, sfx paints...you name it! My brushes are my tools and are extremely important to me! This is just a copy of a brand that's been around forever and costs a tremendous amount less. For the price of one of the 10z cakes here I could buy 5 of the brand I use- at full price - and mine works better and keeps my brushes in top shape! I also have a travel size and it has it's own case like the full size and lasts forever!
INSANELY Overpriced & Not as Good!
I'm absolutely amazed how much they're charging for solid brush cleaner, but obviously people are paying it because it's still here. I've been painting and a mua for a very long time (I grew up in a family of extremely successful artists, designers and scientists) and would never purchase this. I'm incredibly vigilant about keeping my brushes well cleaned and cared for properly and it definitely doesn't cost anywhere near this for the cake brush cleaner and conditioner that I use. Mine comes in a container so tbere less mess and product waste and removes everything including oils, acrylics and more! It's been around for way longer than I have and is a staple in the artist and sfx community. Don't waste your money! This is just an INSANELY overpriced version of the original classic solid brush cleaner that works WAY better and has for eons!
Best cleaner for brushes or blenders
I find this product to be the easiest and fastest when I have a ton of brushes and blenders to wash. I also use this to wash my beauty blenders before using on a daily basis. It smells great and leaves my brushes soft and extremely clean. This will last me a while since a little goes a long way. Best product!!!
Great Product
I bought this for cleaning my makeup brushes and sponges, it works wonders with brushes but not that satisfying with sponges. The DAISO sponge cleanser is much better cleaning sponges, so in comparison, beautyblender blendercleanser solid is a bit ... disappointing. I thought I can just find that ONE cleanser which I can use with both brushes and sponges, however, it doesn't seem to work that way~
